In 1968, 
a small town along the Schuykill River 
in Pennsylvania gave birth to a football team .
The Pottstown Firebirds
only existed three seasons but their legend lives on.
They gained notoriety through:





    Emmy award winning documentary produced by NFL Films '"The Pottstown Firebirds'"
    A book written by Jay Acton, entitled: "The Forgettables"
    A 'long distance relationship' with their fans remains, as an proactive community memory
    A subsequent documentary "Pottstown Revisited" produced 30 years post - original

This site will attempt to archive, catalogue, visualize, analyze, and humanize this story.

Please feel free to forward input, feedback, and comments.
I am in the process of re-organizing my materials, 
thus this site will be in constant flux.
I have limited time and $ resources, 
but more importantly web design skills 
(trial and error methods) 
so please have patience, 
as this project proceeds.
