Most NHL player articles have such things, but I don't know if it's the norm for football players, so correct me if I'm wrong.

- Grammatical issues (I would correct them myself, but I am the reviewer):
- "Then, it continued with consecutive seasons (1996 & 1997)…" Ampersand should be replaced with the word. --WP:LOTD) 16:29, 1 February 2008 (UTC)]
