- Interesting:
- Other problems:
- It's inconsistent to say he prevented them from going insolvent when the source says they were already insolvent: ...Brown County Circuit Judge Henry Graass appointed Jonet receiver of the insolvent Green Bay Football Corporation on Aug. 13, 1933
For the hook's wording, I believe that being bankrupt or insolvent does not necessarily mean that company has folded. Maybe change "going insolvent" to "shutting down"?
| QPQ: Done. |
Overall: 
I don't know if you want a quirky hook, but changing it to "appointed as the financial receiver" might pique interest from NFL fans. —Bagumba (talk) 11:26, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
