 CENTRAL ISLIP, N.Y. (AP) -- Former New York Giants receiver Mark Ingram was sentenced Tuesday to more than seven years in prison for bank fraud and money laundering. It's a third term behind bars for the player who starred in the 1991 Super Bowl.
   The 42-year-old Ingram also was ordered in Long Island federal court to pay $252,000 in restitution.
   Ingram pleaded guilty in 2005. His sentencing was delayed as he tried to revoke the plea, fired several lawyers and missed hearings.
   Ingram is best remembered for eluding five tackles to make a key first down during the '91 Super Bowl in which the Giants beat Buffalo. He has been jailed for various crimes since retiring in 1996.
