Dan Reeves purchased the Cleveland Rams franchise in 1941 from a local ownership group for 5,000. The team was a comparatively young one, launched in 1936, and finances were tight, with as few as 200 season ticket holders and no television revenue, forcing some players to work for as little as 0 per game. The team did not operate in 1943, and Reeves became the sole owner in December, while serving stateside in the U.S. Army Air Forces. Despite its financial woes, the previously unsuccessful franchise began to turn around in 1944; the Rams won Western division title in 1945 and the championship game behind rookie quarterback and league MVP Bob Waterfield, a future member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
