Unusual FOF Suspension

[rafini]

I did a search and couldn't find any other topics about this. Am I on the only one who's received this e-mail:

From: The League Office

The league office has decided to suspend Darrell Russell of the Tampa Bay for the 1997 season.

Russell flip-flopped repeatedly in a media interview, in violation of the league's strict rule against running for president while on an active roster.


Russell was actually the No. 1 pick overall in the 97 draft and is now suspended for his rookie season.
'97 wasn't even an election year

Maybe he thought Clinton really would get impeached.

[SackAttack]

Isn't "Unusual" combined with "FOF Suspension" kind of redundant?

[Dutch]

I've never seen this list, pretty funny.

[CHEMICAL SOLDIER]

I am in awe at those suspensions.

[Easy Mac]

I thought this was going to be about a classic HornsManiac discussion.

[General Mike]

First time I have ever seen that list

[timmynausea]

My favorite was in TCY. My starting tackle was suspended for being overheard saying that Hillary Clinton is a "bonafide hottie."

Right now, I'm amazed that my IHOF team saw zero cases of this so far, even though the Netherlands are not in Asia.
