A 32-year-old player with 4 WP:NFOOTY games and no coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. Michael Earman (SW) played 4 games in 2012 in the third-tier USL Pro league for 68 minutes total. Search results return routine game reports and brief mentions. Leviv ich 19:00, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Consulted by nom prior to nomination. Single season, in which he made 4 sub appearances (68 minutes total),[1] for the Dayton Dutch Lions (avg. attendance 699). Per his LinkedIn page following this season he changed professions to brewing.[2] While he does have a passing mention here (mere namedrop in a list), and a few bits of coverage on his college play, he is not even close to passing GNG. NFOOTY merely creates a presumption of notability, which in this case is rather clearly not met. Icewhiz (talk) 06:10, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:GNG; technically meets WP:NFOOTBALL, but barely, and there is past consensus at AFD that that is insufficient. Giant Snowman 07:48, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per failure to meet GNG. Nothing beyond pretty trivial mentions on searching for sources. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs^(talk) 19:14, 3 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Article about non-notable footballer who made a handful of substitute's appearances for a second-tier US soccer club. Online coverage is routine and doesn't indicate the article can pass the GNG. Jogurney (talk) 14:35, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
