fun fact: the CFL (Canadian Football Leage) team Toronto Argonauts was founded in 1873 and is the oldest profession team in North America. This team has more history and legacy than your favourite soccer clubs

While others were nursing the game through its infancy, the first thing leafs though was "how can I pervert this into making me money". No wonder you're letting yourself get pooed to save a few bucks.

If they are the oldest, then who did they play against? Did they just sit around waiting for another team to form?

Canadian football was even closer than handegg to Rugby (union), they were all calling themselves rugby teams until the first world war.

Cubs started in 1870 professionally, never disbanded, and stayed in the same place so I don't get what word shuffle you come up with where the Argos are older

The technicality is that they're the oldest team with the same name all the way throughout. The Cubs weren't named the Cubs until the 1900s.
