• ... that Frank Fitzgerald was the general manager of an NFL team that played under four names in five years? Source: explained in the article - Boston Yanks in 1948, New York Bulldogs 1949, New York Yanks 1950-51, Dallas Texans 1952
  • ALT1: ... that after working for the NFL team known as the Boston Yanks / New York Bulldogs / Yanks / Dallas Texans, Frank Fitzgerald worked for the Houston / Tennessee Oilers / Titans? Source: explained in the article
  • Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Keith "End Zone" Jones
  • Comment: I think its interesting that his teams went under so many different name changes, and that the only two teams he was with happened to have some of the most name changes (not sure if there's any similar comparison except perhaps the 1920s Buffalo and Detroit NFL teams).

Moved to mainspace by BeanieFan11 (talk). Self-nominated at 18:12, 23 February 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Frank Fitzgerald (American football); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• Article is new enough, long enough, and neutral in tone. Earwig came up nil, and a spot check showed no issues. Hooks are interesting and sourced. My preference is for ALT0, though I think it would be clearer if worded "that played under four names" or "that went by four names", with my preference being the former. @BeanieFan11: what do you think about this suggestion? Also, your pending QPQ will need to be done before this can be marked good to go. Thanks! DrOrinScrivello (talk) 20:46, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
  • @DrOrinScrivello: Added QPQ. Changed the hook to your suggestion. BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:56, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
