For what it's worth, if the baseball section is going to stay in here, and I think it should, can someone confirm that John Henry remained a minority owner of the Yankees while he was a part owner of the Marlins, and that the Yankees required that he sell his stake in that team when he put together the purchase of the Red Sox?

John deserves a fuller and more flattering conclusion to "Early Years"

Although the first line of paragraph four states the fact accurately, I believe that John deserves a fuller and more flattering expression than that which we find there now. 68.183.87.84 19:57, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

That "first line of paragraph four" that concluded John's "Early Years" two years ago read

He began his career as a full time speculator in the commodities markets

eventually obtaining his CTA registration in 1981,

this would allow him to not only trade his own money but the money of others as well.

Recent marriage

Worth adding that he recently married a woman half his age (30 to his almost-60). http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2009/06/28/wedded_bliss_in_fenway_outfield/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thalia42 (talk • contribs) 04:16, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Oh, I don't know. Maybe so. Maybe not.

The Globe's Shanahan got it wrong in his reference to John's "first wife."

.

Besides, John may deserve to enjoy a bit of privacy, in the matter of his family,

and a rush to compare John to William O. Douglas, may not really do him much justice.

Officeholder?

Henry is an owner, not an officeholder. There has to be a better infobox to use for his info. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kermitmorningstar (talk • contribs) 20:29, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
