- Redirect to List of Chicago Tigers players as an ATD. Not enough coverage for standalone notability as it stands now. Please ping me if more coverage is found. Frank Anchor 13:09, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect per Frank Anchor. My searches failed to turn up SIGCOV. The obit referenced by Jweiss has more depth than anything I found, and that's not enough IMO (it makes only passing reference to playing pro football). See also WP:SPORTBASIC, prong 5 ("Sports biographies must include at least one reference to a source providing significant coverage of the subject, excluding database sources."). For anyone interested in doing further searches, this book indicates he was known as "Al Eissler" and played for St. Nazaire in an AEF tournamant during WWI. Also, Pro Football Archives indicates he also played pro ball for Evanston in 1916 and Hammond in 1919. If SIGCOV is found, please ping me as I'm willing to reconsider Cbl62 ( talk) 21:56, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
