[edit]Karl should also be x-ref'd under German-Americans, and/or German-American sportspeople... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.114.58.46 (talk) 20:56, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
I have removed the following controversial claim from the article:
- During the 1987 NFL players' strike, Mecklenburg tore up an autograph he had signed for a boy when he learned the 8-year-old would be attending a game featuring replacement players. Mecklenburg was criticized heavily for the incident.[1]
It may violate Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons, as it cites a newspaper article, but this is a commentary (see The article), not a news article, and thus may have an unverified opinion -- I think a better source is neededJohnelwayrules (talk) 02:16, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
