Since the Brooklyn Horsemen and Brooklyn Lions both existed only for one year (and having merged as the Horsemen for the last three games of the 1926), I'd suggest merging the articles here. While the Lions played eight games before the merger and there were "only" seven Horsemen games (four in the AFL, three in the NFL), a few "more notable" Brooklyn players actually were Horsemen for the entire season, and the two teams' combined history should be treated in the merged article.

The owner of the 1926 Brooklyn Lions was a man named Edmund Butle. I did not want to edit and mess anything up so I will cite some source material and let you decide. On March 17, 1892, Edmund Butler was born in the Red Hook section of Brooklyn.
