Will we ever see another American Football League; that is one that would end up becoming a truly successful alternative to the NFL?
The odds aren't too good.
The AFL was the only one of the startup leagues that popped up in the years after World War II to truly be successful, though four former AAFC clubs did make it into the NFL, with the Cleveland Browns playing in six straight NFL title games after winning all four All-America Conference crowns (1946-49).
At least the WFL and original XFL did make to their respective title games.
