Amfoot Trivia Question 0183
Wildman - I'm not really mad, I've just been in a very bad mood for 40 years! Started conversation Oct 28, 2003
OK, I didn't expect to get a question right so I didn't have anything ready (actually I did have one, but it's been so long since I answered that I've forgotten what it was).
Anyway..... I was reading the baseball project from the front page, about Pete Rose who is apparently being kept out of the baseball hall of fame because he was found gambling on baseball.
So the question is:- ... Name the player elected to the Football Hall of Fame despite a years suspension for gambling on NFL games.

The first name (and possibly only) that I can think of is ... Alex Karras.

Good try, but no cigar I'm afraid.
Alex did have a year off for gambling infringements but the Hall of Fame is Karras-less.

Hmmm then I'm going to be guessing wild in the park, trawling through my memory for possible infringers ... Hope I don't ruin any reputations here ...
