Is Gene Smith behind this?

And we lost to the "Pottville Maroons" - how humiliating!

It's "Pottsville" - that's humiliating

Why not. All history needs to be re-written every 75-100 years to keep up with the political climate of current times. Anyone think if the Bears had won the championship the NFL would be telling Pottsville to kiss off?

Here's a great story about this issue from a couple of years ago:

Yup, and the anti-Cardinals people in Arizona, and the anti-Cardinals print and broadcast news, and the anti-Cardinals from St. Louis, and all those other jealous NFL teams...

I see your other argument got pummelled, now you're on the Maroon bandwagon....

Great job Sparky. We're all challenged and refreshed by your unique point of view.

What are ASU's colors? There you go.

This story is absolutely hilarious, and classic Cardinals. Haven't we lost enough championships in recent years? Now we're trying to lose one from 78 years ago??

Screw the Maroons! The '25 Cardinals rule!

...when interviewed about this development, Pottsville Mayor, Tom E. Chong said "This is great news for all Pottsville citizens. We are finally going to get ourselves on the map! Whoa, dude, you going to finish that sandwich?"

Hardly - As I recall, I linked some info and connected the dots, and you guys said, "No, you're wrong." And that's about all you brought to the table.

Great job Sparky. We're all challenged and refreshed by your unique point of view.

Of this I have no doubt.

And my response was in jest - that was simply a summary of posts I've seen on this board re: who is 'out-to-get' the Cardinals.

Good day gents...

Rice was wrong about Tillman, but he was right about the Cards. How else could a team lose a championship 78 years after the fact?

Do I sense bitterness in your voice? Hey you can't win every arguement (or in your case ANY arguement) but don't let that shut you up. JUST KEEP ON DIGGIN!

Great information. Funny thing is about the only leg Pottsville has to stand on is tryng to get the Cards game VS milwakuee thrown out, and sad fact is even if you throw out that game means Cards record is 10-2-1, Pottville is 10-2 which means by virtue of the tie the Cards still own the championship title, so seems like this should be a moot point.

holy crap - we are now debating about something that happened over 75 years ago - were any of us even born yet - is there really nothing else to talk about - ugh.

Hey you may not like him or agree with him, but that last bit is pretty damn funny.

You've got one too many "o's" in Morons.
