2023 Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame - Round 1

Peter Griffin

TV Show/Movie Appeared: Family Guy (1999-2002 & 2005-)
Actor/Actress: Seth MacFarlane
Position Portrayed: Centre
Played For:: New England Patriots/London Silly Nannies
Why you should vote:: Does the constant fights with the chicken count as bare knuckle boxing?
Why you should not vote:: Does a cartoon character qualify?
If we can have Homer Simpson, on the ballot is it a bit of a stretch to have Peter Griffin on as well? Perhaps a bit, as Peter is more of a fan of sports than an actual participant….except for that stretch where he played for the New England Patriots as an expert blocker for Tom Brady; that was until he scored a touchdown and orchestrated the greatest touchdown dance of all time, thus angering the star Quarterback and was traded across the Atlantic to the London Silly Nannies, where his new teammates lived up to their team name. Maybe this entry is a stretch, but more people probably saw that episode of Family Guy than many of the sports themes cable shows that we have listed.
