Biography
The world's most famous sports "oddsmaker," Jimmy "The Greek" Snyder spent 12 years on CBS Sports' The N.F.L. Today (1976). He was fired after making some rather bigoted remarks about African American athletes. Snyder made one feature-film appearance in the Burt Reynolds vehicle The Cannonball Run (1981). ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
