'''Alfred Earle''' "'''Greasy'''" '''Neale''' (November 5, 1891 – November 2, 1973) was an American [[American football|football]] and [[baseball]] player and coach.

==Early life==
Neale was born on November 5, 1891, in [[Parkersburg, West Virginia]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.city-data.com/city/Parkersburg-West-Virginia.html|title=Parkersburg, West Virginia |publisher=  City-Data.com|access-date= June 7, 2014}}</ref> Although writers eventually assumed that Neale got his nickname, "Greasy", from his elusiveness on the football field, it actually arose during his youth, from a name-calling joust with a friend.<ref>{{cite news |title=Greasy Neale: Nothing To Prove, Nothing To Ask |first=Gerald |last=Holland |url=https://www.si.com/vault/1964/08/24/608446/greasy-neale-nothing-to-prove-nothing-to-ask |newspaper=[[Sports Illustrated]] |date=August 24, 1964 |access-date=October 26, 2011}}</ref>

==Playing career==
===Baseball===
[[File:Earl Neale (circa 1919).jpg|thumb|Neale with the Cincinnati Reds of the MLB, {{circa|1919|lk=no}}]]
Neale played [[Major League Baseball]] as an [[outfielder]] with the [[Cincinnati Reds]] between 1916 and 1924 and briefly with the [[Philadelphia Phillies]] for part of the 1921 season. Neale was the starting right fielder for the championship-winning [[1919 Cincinnati Reds season|1919 Reds]]. He batted .357 in the [[1919 World Series]] and led the Reds with ten hits in their eight-game series win over the [[Black Sox Scandal|scandalous]] [[1919 Chicago White Sox season|White Sox]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Greasy Neale Stats, Height, Weight, Position, Rookie Status & More |url=https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/n/nealegr01.shtml |access-date=2024-08-10 |website=Baseball-Reference.com |language=en}}</ref>

Neale spent all but 22 games of his baseball career with the Reds. He had a career [[batting average]] of .259 with 8 home runs, 200 [[Run batted in|RBI]], and 139 stolen bases, and finished in the top ten in stolen bases in the [[National League (baseball)|National League]] four times. When football season came around, often he would leave baseball and fulfill his football duties (albeit playing about 90% of a baseball season most years, with the exception of 1919 when he played the entire season, including the World Series).<ref name=":0" />

===Football===
Neale also played professional football in the [[Ohio League]] with the [[Canton Bulldogs]] in 1917, the [[Dayton Triangles]] in 1918, and the [[Massillon Tigers]] in 1919. He starred as an end on [[Jim Thorpe]]'s pre-[[World War I]] [[Canton Bulldogs]] as well as the [[Dayton Triangles]] in 1918 and [[Massillon Tigers]] in 1919. He coached the Triangles in 1918.

==Coaching career==
===College===
Neale began his coaching career while still a professional player. He served as the head football coach at [[Muskingum University|Muskingum College]] (1915), [[West Virginia Wesleyan College]] (1916–1917), [[Marietta College]] (1919–1920), [[Washington & Jefferson College]] (1921–1922), the [[University of Virginia]] (1923–1928), and [[West Virginia University]] (1931–1933), compiling a career [[college football]] record of 82–54–11. He coached basketball for two seasons at Marietta (1919–1921) as well, amassing a record of 26–11. He also served as an assistant football coach with [[Yale University|Yale Bulldogs football]] for seven seasons (1934–1940).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Earle (Greasy) Neale {{!}} Pro Football Hall of Fame |url=https://www.profootballhof.com/players/earle-greasy-neale |access-date=2024-08-10 |website=pfhof |language=en}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite web |title=Greasy Neale Record, Statistics, and Category Ranks |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/NealGr0.htm |access-date=2024-08-10 |website=Pro-Football-Reference.com |language=en}}</ref>

At Washington & Jefferson, he led his 1921 squad to the [[1922 Rose Bowl|Rose Bowl]], where the [[Washington & Jefferson Presidents football|Presidents]] played the [[1921 California Golden Bears football team|California Golden Bears]] to a scoreless tie.  At Virginia, Neale was also the head baseball coach from 1923 to 1929, tallying a mark of 80–73–2.<ref name=":1" />

===Independent football===
Neale later coached the independent professional [[Ironton Tanks]]. He and Tanks quarterback [[Glenn Presnell]] claimed victories against the NFL's second-place New York Giants and third-place Chicago Bears in 1930, however the team folded in 1931.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Remembering Greasy Neale: Parkersburg’s most accomplished athlete and coach |url=https://www.newsandsentinel.com/news/community-news/2023/11/remembering-greasy-neale-parkersburgs-most-accomplished-athlete-and-coach/ |access-date=2024-08-10 |website=newsandsentinel.com/ |language=en-US}}</ref>

===Professional===
Neale moved to the [[National Football League]] (NFL), to serve as the head coach of the [[Philadelphia Eagles]] from 1941 to 1950. From 1944 through 1949, Neale's Eagles finished second three times and in first place three times. The Eagles won the NFL Championship in 1948 and again in 1949, and became the first team to win back-to-back titles since the 1940 and 1941 Chicago Bears by shutting out their opponents, beating the Chicago Cardinals 7–0 in the snow ridden [[1948 NFL Championship Game]] and the Los Angeles Rams 14–0 in the [[1949 NFL Championship Game]] in a driving rain storm. It was the last championship for the Eagles until 1960.  His offense was led by the passing of quarterback [[Tommy Thompson (quarterback)|Tommy Thompson]], the pass catching of future Hall of Fame end [[Pete Pihos]], and the running of another Hall of Famer, [[Steve Van Buren]]. He tallied a mark of 66–44–5 including playoff games in his ten seasons with the club. Neale was inducted into the [[College Football Hall of Fame]] in 1967 and the [[Pro Football Hall of Fame]] in 1969. Both inductions recognized his coaching career.<ref name=":1" />

Neale died in Lake Worth Beach, Florida, at the age of 81 and was later interred in Parkersburg Memorial Gardens in West Virginia.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |title=Greasy Neale – Society for American Baseball Research |url=https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/greasy-neale/ |access-date=2024-08-10 |language=en-US}}</ref>
