Milwaukee Badgers
The Milwaukee Badgers was a professional American football team based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin that played in the National Football League from 1922 to 1926. The team played its home games at Athletic Park, later known as Borchert Field, on Milwaukee's north side.
After the team folded following the 1926 season, many of the it's members played on an independent semi-pro team known as the Milwaukee Eagles. A few of the players from this team went on to play for the original Pittsburgh Pirates football team in 1933 which later became the Steelers. This has lead some to mistakenly believe that either the Badgers or Eagles became the Steelers. They did not.
