Talk:Jimmy Snyder (sports commentator)

message: I just saw an episode of Frontline called "The Unauthorized History of the NFL." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgTepbjAKEk
It mentioned that Jimmy Snyder was jailed for mob ties (I think gambling related) and then got a presidential pardon (I think from Ford). Thought that was a neat piece of history that's not reflected on wikipedia.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.135.33.8 (talk) 23:32, 1 March 2016 (UTC)

message: Perhaps someone should reconsider the heading "Controversial statements."  There's only one statement being referred to, here.  Granted, there was a lot more to it than quoted in the article.  I remember seeing it on TV.  He said something to the effect that black people are "bred" for athletic ability; he also said something about black people having more muscled thighs, so they can run faster and jump higher.  But although it was several sentences, it was only one statement, in the broad sense of the word--one career ruining statement.  Using the word "statements" suggests that there were other instances.

message: One thing I know about Jimmy the Greek is that he had a child or children who died of cystic fibrosis.  This was mentioned in Frank deFord's (whose daughter Alex died of it) in his SI obit of Jimmy.  I don't have the verifiable information but if I can dig it up, I'll add it.  
Some other personal info might be nice too. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Beckerbuns (talk • contribs) 17:22, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Anyone else sees anything wrong with this statement? "As a teenager in Ohio, he naturally became acquainted with bookmakers"? Naturally ? Just because he was an Ohio teen?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.199.138.82 (talk) 06:03, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
