This is the saga of the 1925 Pottsville Maroons who were not only NFL champions but who also defeated Notre Dame and the Four Horsemen. The breaker boys were hardscrabble coal miners who so thoroughly decimated one opponent that angry fans shot at their train car as they left town. Because the team was so good, they played the greatest football game ever seen and paved the way for the NFL. But the game that legitimized the NFL was also the game that destroyed the town of Pottsville and the team. The truth behind it all is revealed here in this book by a senior writer for ESPN. 312 pages, hardbound, 2007.
