According to the Pottsville Republican, Horrigan will take the viewpoint opposing Fleming, an opinion that by their own choice and despite repeated warnings, the Maroons disobeyed an NFL rule and therefore do not deserve the title. Jim Coles the main sports anchor for WNEP-Newswatch 16 (A Northeastern and Central Pennsylvania News Network) will moderate the debate between Horrigan and Fleming.

The debate will surley keep the Pottsville Maroons in the recently acquired national spotlight. Fleming has done an outstanding job of circulating his most recent book about the Maroons “Breaker Boys: The NFL’s Greatest Team and the Stolen 1925 Championship“. It has been said to be “selling faster than Harry Potter” in the community and surrounding areas. The February edition of ESPN The Magazine showcased an article about the Maroons and the curse that is said to be held over the cardinals franchise by Maroon fans for their unethical acceptance of the championship.

The Republican also stated that about 150 tickets — about two-thirds of the seats — will be raffled off March 30 at The REPUBLICAN & Herald, 111 Mahantongo St., Pottsville. Free tickets will be distributed in the random drawing, while the remaining seats will be reserved for invited guests.

The debate is the next important step in justifying the unreasonable events that took place in 1925. Fumbled.org supports the Maroons and hopes to see the title returned to its home, Pottsville Pennsylvania!  GO DAVE!!!
