5x expanded by Cbl62 (talk). Self nominated at 15:56, 12 October 2013 (UTC).

Quite an expansion. Article has 32kb of prose, and DYK check confirms that the 5x expansion began on October 8. Ref #108 backs up the hook fact, though it is the opinion of one writer from ESPN's Page 2. Image is identified as public domain. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:45, 1 November 2013 (UTC)
