  • Comment: There are a bunch of possibilities with this; McGeary played football, coached football, owned bowling alleys with Marciano, wrestled with Nagurski, played basketball, owned marinas, worked insurance, served 47 World War II missions + Purple Heart, founded the Federation of Christian Athletes and was an announcer, but I can't fit all that into a hook.
