Comments

• Birth name should be cited in body.
  • I added it in the body as well as that he went under a different name in the U.S.
• Hmm, do you know if the Toronto Tigers played Canadian football or American?
  • They were based in Toronto, Ohio, so American (I added that they were Ohio-based in the article).
• I added cats Coaches of American football from Pennsylvania, and Jewish Romanian sportspeople.
• Jersey numbers in infobox need cited.
• I unlinked Pittsburgh on the second instance in the infobox.
• I clicked on ref 7 to see what they meant by scrub but the ref isn't clipped.
  • This doesn't work for you? It loads fine for me. BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:22, 16 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
