The Arizona Cardinals football franchise is the oldest surviving team in the National Football League, having been organized as the Morgan Athletic Club in 1898. The team joined the NFL in 1920 (it was renamed the Chicago Cardinals two years later) and won two league titles, its last in 1947. A move to St. Louis in 1960 did little to improve the team's success on the field, nor did its relocation to Phoenix in 1988. (The franchise became the Arizona Cardinals in 1994.)
AnswerYes. The Chicago Cardinals began as the Morgan Athelic Club in 1898, then became the Racine Cardinals in 1920 before officially becoming the Chicago Cardinals from 1922 to 1959. After a 2-10 season in 1959 owner Violet Bidwell relocated to St. Louis. and then the St. Louis Cardinals became the Arizona cardinals.

Who were the owners of the Arizona Cardinals?
In the book "When Football Was Football: The Chicago Cardinals and the Birth of the NFL," the owners of the team are documented. When the team started as the Morgan Athletic Association in 1899 (and then as the Morgan Athletic Club), the team was sponsored by local social organizations, but not "owned" by an individual. Chris O'Brien incorporated the team as the Racine Cardinal Pleasure Club in 1917 and then the Chicago Cardinals in 1920. By this time he was acknowledged as the owner of the Cardinals (along with several silent investors). O'Brien sold the team to Dr. David Jones in 1929, who kept the team only a few years until selling the club to Charles Bidwill in 1933. The Bidwill family continues to own the Cardinals to this day.
