Talk:Boston Yanks

Untitled
I am a former employee of the Indianapolis Colts. I worked secrity at the Hoosier Dome/RCA Dome. What brought me to search up *defunct nfl teams* was the fact that during my time working for the Colts, the "official Lineage" of the Colts franchise was painted eastern wall of the room that all security employees had to go to check in and get thier section assignments. Which sparked curiosity in me. This room was called, Touchdown Club North. This room was also open to the public during NFL games as well asother events held inside the Dome and Indiana Convention Center. It included fancy seating private concessions and restrooms as well as souvenier stands and large screen tv's. Enough of describing the room, but anyways the point of this is that on the eastern wall, the Official Colts Lineage is listed as follows:

1. Boston Yanks           1944-48 2. New York Bulldogs      1949 3. New York Yanks         1950-51 4. Dallas Texans          1952 5. Baltimore Colts        1953-83 6. Indianapolis Colts     1984-Present

I love N.F.L. history. When I find out someones favorite team, I look it up for information. I looked up "COLTS" history, and the history section says that they were originally the MIAMI SEAHAWKS, Not the BOSTON YANKS. Which is right?Aringo (talk) 21:55, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Take what I say with a grain of salt, but my understanding from this is that the Yanks franchise was disbanded. Its assets were turned over to the Colts though.  So it isn't a direct line change like Baltimore Colts becoming the Indianapolis Colts or something like that, but rather just  a sale of assets. Drhamad (talk) 19:58, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
