Bob Gregor
- ... that a coach said that Bob Gregor "hits so hard, he maims himself"? Source: The San Diego Union "Coach Don Coryell thought about the 6-2, 187-pound player and winced. 'He hits so hard, he maims himself,' Coryell said. 'He's suicidal.'"

- Comment: The hook source requires a subscription, but I quoted the excerpt (above). The hook is intentionally leaving out context of the sport.
5x expanded by Bagumba (talk). Self-nominated at 11:03, 6 December 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Bob Gregor; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
New enough and large enough expansion. QPQ present. Hook fact verifies (GenealogyBank has the same page of The Union, and the preview checks out). The entire article is singularly devoted to this guy's overly hard hitting—and how it cost him—so this hook fact is a perfect microcosm. No Earwig issues.
