    It pains me to have to repeat this from post #1 .

    "You can contact me to see if you have them right, but if you only have one right the answer will be no and there is no acknowledgement of the correct one. Consequently sly comments such as "would one of them be..." will get an automatic "no!" I'm starting to warm to this game ."

    However I can see that you are trying. Very trying .

    To reward you for effort though my name and my nickname both had an alliterative bent to them. I am the older one.

    I've googled every sportsperson that fell from grace ... with or without wives ..... no go. (my knowledge of cheating in sports has increased 2000%)

    This is the hardest one. Artme, hopefully, will hook in here soon and then we will see .... Haa

    Waiting, waiting, waiting.

    JJ had 3 white wives and spent time in prison. JO accepted sponsorship and was stripped of amateur status. He was married to one woman, and at first refused to support the Black Power closed fist salute.

    Waiting, waiting. Yes, yes, I know it'll gut yer to have to give it to me......

    Art

    Might have to send a PM to give you a heads up next time. I thought Jack Johnson was the more difficult of the two and I had to be careful what information I gave about Jessie Owens.

    The links were they were both black and suffered under the racial laws of the day and both were leaders in their fields. Jessie Owens' record of four gold medals was not equalled until the 1984 olympics (Carl Lewis).
