Location

The main page states that Dave Duncan and wife live in Jupiter, FL. Contrarily, on July 23, 2007, Dave Duncan briefly appeared on the YES cable television network as part of the network's telecast of the game between the Kansas City Royals and (Duncan's son Shelley's) New York Yankees. Duncan told broadcasters Ken Singleton and Joe Girardi that "we live in the Ozark Mountains" as part of his description of the logistics of getting from Atlanta, the site of Dave Duncan's Cardinals late July 22 game, to Kansas City July 23 to watch his son Shelley play in his 4th major league game along with Dave's wife and son Chris.


Location and Children

I do not think Dave and Jeanine have two daughters. I think they are feeding people full of baloney about that and about where they live. I grew up with his kids, so I'm just saying someone should research this more. 69.171.160.172 (talk) 04:31, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You are correct. Dave Duncan and Jeanine Duncan do not have two daughters but Dave Duncan does have two daughters. I know this for a fact because I am one of them.--Einnaved (talk) 05:03, 6 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Kevin Towers?

This article is about Dave Duncan. As per

Wikipedia MOS, the lead should "It should define the topic, establish context, explain why the topic is notable, and summarize the most important points." Any mention of Kevin Towers should be placed in the coaching career section of the article.Orsoni (talk) 20:11, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

I did not realize that listing Towers in the lead would be an issue. What about La Russa? --Elcid.ruderico (talk) 01:11, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It's not an issue, it is simply guidelines established by the Wikipedia Manual of Style for biographies. As per
Wikipedia MOS, the "lead serves as an introduction to the article and a summary of its most important aspects." The lead should also "establish context, explain why the topic is notable, and summarize the most important points." In my opinion, that would be his playing career and coaching career. Further information such as his employment by Towers should be fleshed out in the main body of the article.Orsoni (talk) 03:26, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply
