Bruschi's return game

[edit]

I think his comeback was inspirational, but is foolish to be playing after the stroke. What else has he done besides the comeback, to be considered a "great human being"?

--This page should make more note of ESPN's coverage of Bruschi in his return game. The lack of emphasis on the game and portrayal of Bruschi as a "hero" upset many football fans. Some fans even made a mock broadcast in which the announcer talks about Bruschi making tackles, then running into the parking lot to save dogs from a burning car.

Although this is a highly opinionated and a sensitive subject, it should be noted. Something like this is what would send someone to check out Bruschi's page in the first place, it's omission would be almost glaring.--JeffHanover

I agree Jeff. I tried to add this information, but a Patriots fan, Pats1, continuously removed whatever information I added, despite my use of sources, and said I violated wikipedia policy, simply because he refused to let people know the truth about Bruschi, that he is indeed, human, and that many people strongly disagreed with ESPN's coverage and him being named AFC Defensive Player of the Week. —Preceding unsigned comment added by GiggityGals (talk • contribs) 05:47, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, read WP:CIVIL and WP:NPA. The fact that I'm a Patriots fan has nothing to do with this. If you noticed, there was another user who disagreed with your edits as well. And it has nothing to do with "bias," and everything to do with your edits not complying with Wikipedia policy. What you did is
A) Use postings from web forums as sources to your edits. Web forums are not considered reliable sources per Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Examples#Are web forums and blog talkbacks reliable sources?.
B) Used stats pages are "sources" and then presented personal commentary and analysis that was not provided in the sources, which is also against Wikipedia:No original research#Synthesis of published material serving to advance a position.
So if you're interested in adding "The Truth" (or whatever you called it), you need to do so by provided multiple acceptable sources. The fact that you have yet to do this isn't my fault, so again, stop with the attitude. Pats1 T/C 15:29, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NPA states "Contributors often are members of opposing communities who wish to have their viewpoints included in articles. Synthesizing these views into a single article creates a better, more NPOV article for everyone." I have a source, but I don't feel like paying 3 dollars for it. Anyway here it is. [1] When it comes down to it, you know as well as I do that these views are held, so why don't you just allow it to be posted on Bruschi's page. Like Jeff said above, "Something like this is what would send someone to check out Bruschi's page in the first place, it's omission would be almost glaring." Why not allow this then also supply an argument as to why he SHOULD have received the award? —Preceding unsigned comment added by GiggityGals (talk • contribs) 04:07, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The OpEd page of the Buffalo News doesn't really qualify either. What this continues to boil down to is you attempting to insert biased opinion into an encyclopedia. Please, stop. Tarc

NFL: Live commentator

[edit]

Ted, no disrespect intended, even though you seem to never display one ounce of respect for a team that defeated your Pats in the Super Bowl. What kind of sportsmanship is it to not even have one decent display of respect to the Philadelphia Eagles for beating your Tom Brady Patriots? Every comment has nothing but bias on your part!!! While other commentators on the same panel do congratulate the Eagles for persevering over the 5 time champs.

It is very disturbing and unprofessional to not have one single props for a team. How dare you when you also played on a team that didn't always win the big one! Yet you have no problem running your mouth about how the Eagles didn't deserve the Lombardi trophy. What a poor sport because your team didn't win!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:985:1:3A8C:D922:E12B:164C:A72A (talk) 20:19, 12 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
