Claim: The 1925 National Football League controversy did not involve NFL commissioner Joseph Carr.
Evidence: However Carr's decision and handling of the situation is still being protested by many sports historians, as well as by the people of Pottsville, Pennsylvania, and controversy still lingers about who actually won the 1925 NFL Championship, since the Maroons had earlier beaten Chicago and were actually awarded the league championship before they were suspended. However, the Maroons stated that Carr knew of the game and had allowed it to take place.
