Elmer Flick[edit]

~~... that the Cleveland Naps refused to trade Elmer Flick (pictured) for Ty Cobb?~~

Comment: We are approaching the end of the 5 days, and it's not quite at 5x expanded. As of the time I'm nominating this, the article has gone from 2,375 characters to 11,041, which is 4.64x expanded. But, I'm asking for a reviewer to ignore all rules, in case it doesn't reach a full 5x, since it is still approaching a 9,000 character expansion, which is in keeping with the spirit of DYK. Nevermind, it's a full 5x+. – Muboshgu (talk) 13:16, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
