I wrote about him <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=18445\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=19182\">here<\/a> a few months back. <\/p>\n<p>Even though we had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Stoops-2-1.jpg\">a copy of his records<\/a>, the head of the museum still believed Stoops&#8217; version.<\/p>\n<p>Well, a reporter from the Kansas City Star, Lee Hill Kavanaugh, with whom I&#8217;ve been working called to tell me that Stoops&#8217; family and the director of the Hall of Fame went to St. Louis and looked up his records for themselves. They&#8217;re not talking about what they found, but the director says that Stoops won&#8217;t be inducted into the Hall of Fame. Stoops had been been peddling his story for four decades and it&#8217;s finally come to an end.<\/p>\n<p>Another take down by TAH along with our friends at POW Net and Doug Sterner.
