Who do you think might've been the second string "Enforcer?"
Still smiling about that.
For the 1920s? That's above my pay grade ... maybe one of the wrestlers - -
Gus Sonnenberg! (Really I have no idea - maybe Frank Nesser)

I was thinking Cal Hubbard for his size and (wrestling) ability (ala John).
But I don't know if he had the nasty temperament to go along with his other attributes.

Yeah him or Jim McMillen both went into wresting --- along with, I am sure, others.

But I don't know who the "tough guys" were, the enforces like a jack Lambert or Jack Tatum, etc.

Same here - I haven't been through enough game accounts from the '20s.
