- ... that Clarence McGeary was a football player, coach, wrestled with Bronko Nagurski, owned bowling alleys with Rocky Marciano, founded the Federation of Christian Athletes and was given a Purple Heart?

- Comment: There are a bunch of possibilities with this; McGeary played football, coached football, owned bowling alleys with Marciano, wrestled with Nagurski, played basketball, owned marinas, worked insurance, served 47 World War II missions + Purple Heart, founded the Federation of Christian Athletes and was an announcer, but I can't fit all that into a hook.
