Birthplace

I noticed the red link for Medina, Pennsylvania. Maybe it's a typo (on collegefootball.org) for the town name or maybe the town actually changed its name but I cannot find any evidence that a "Medina", PA exists. Google maps points me to a street in Philly instead and a zip code search (http://zip4.usps.com/zip4/citytown.jsp) gives an error! I looked under Pennsylvania to see if there's a list of towns or a category hierarchy but found no town lists for PA. Because of policies at Wikipedia:Red link, I think it makes sense to remove the wiki-link on this "mystery" town in this article, so I am. --Georgeryp 07:43, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Assuming it's a typo, "Media, PA", instead of "Medina". Cool how red links can help you find such mistakes. --Georgeryp 08:14, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
