The All-America Football Conference or better known as the AAFC, was a professional American football league that challenged the well established National Football League in the post World War II era from 1946 to 1949. Though the League only lasted 4 seasons it had a huge impact on the trajectory of the professional level of football by early racial integration, introducing unique marketing ploys, brining in new markets and the innovations of its coaches and fantastic players.
