- Speedy Keep This is getting ridiculous. Nominator should have done WP:SPORTCRIT only applies to players, and pages were not all created by a single user. Smartyllama (talk) 20:36, 23 January 2017 (UTC)]
- Keep no evidence that nom made any effort to search for sources. Nominating with the same rationale for every AfD without (apparently) even checking to see if each article fits the rationale is a non-starter. Lepricavark (talk) 20:58, 23 January 2017 (UTC)]

- Strong Keep It took me a few minutes, but there were ample sources available about the team, including this lengthy article in WP:BEFORE, a fundamental obligation that must be met before moving forward with an AfD. Sadly, Zackmann08 has ignored all of the issues raised at these AfDs, refused to withdraw nominations where articles have been improved to add easily located sources and has simply moved on to destroy other encyclopedic content at XfD, without having learned any lessons from these previous failures to observe policy.
