Francis "Bucko" Joseph Kilroy (born May 30, 1921) was an American football player. He is considered the "dirtiest bird". Chuck Bednarik said that Frank hit him in the head with such force that he wanted to kill him Frank. Teammates and Charley Trippi said that Kilroy kicked Trippi off the field while he was pushing him off the field and Trippi took off his helmet and starting wacking at him until police broke the fight apart. He is on the 2007 preliminary list for the Pro Football Hall of Fame as a contributor.
