I got to watch him play live a few times while he was with the raiders. One of the best ball hawks ever. I always thought " what if the raiders kept him and asamugah(sp) and had them play together" and I'm Not even a raider fan.

Personally I just don't like to compare current greats with all time greats. Too Much can happen ( injuries, trades ect.) before the end of a players career.

I will give you credit for either one. The gambling has little if anything to do with it. I would be shocked if he lost a single vote because of the gambling.

Before his NFL career got under way, he signed a contract as a professional wrestler on December 13, 1957, earning $25,000 during the six-month off-season. Eight days later, he officially signed with the Lions, spurning an offer from the Canadian Football League's Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
On January 7, 1963, Karras's ownership in Detroit's Lindell AC Bar became a source of controversy when league officials urged him to sell his financial interests in the place because of reports of gambling and organized crime influence. After first threatening to retire rather than give it up, Karras admitted placing bets on NFL games and was suspended by the league, along with Green Bay Packers' running back Paul Hornung, for one season (1963).
During his exile, Karras returned to pro wrestling, taking on such memorable characters as Dick the Bruiser, but was then reinstated, along with Hornung, on March 16, 1964 by NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle. Upon returning to action in 1964, Karras once refused when an official asked him to call the pregame coin toss. "I'm sorry, sir," Karras replied. "I'm not permitted to gamble."[2] During his first year back, player discontent with head coach George Wilson resulted in Karras asking to be traded. However, the Lions settled the issue when they fired Wilson after the 1964 NFL season.

Chuck Hughes owed him money for gambling and he mysteriously died on the field during a game. Pete Rozelle was not amused

rider, the remark about the coin toss, is funny as hell....i've just always remembered what a force he was on the D-line and that, no matter what...he deserves to be in the Hall, if anything, especially for all the additional positive efforts he did in the television industry....Maybe it also has to do with disrespect for the Lions....

Bingo! No more guesses required. Plus, you really can't compare a lineman to a running back that also kicked. Fair or not, the HOF has a lot more skill position guys.

To me, the Hall of Fame, will remain flawed, until they respect all positions, equally....Alex Karras effected as many game outcomes as Paul Hornung....just in a different manner....
