There are other Mark Shapiros - like www.markshapiro.com Just so we all know, and I edited this, the Indians GM Mark Shapiro is NOT the same person as the ESPN executive. I met the Indians GM last night, and he found it rather surprising and amusing that he was both an ESPN executive and also a Six Flags executive. So don't change it back, because it's the wrong guy.

Indians GM Mark Shapiro is NOT the CEO of Six Flags

There are two Mark Shapiros, the GM of the Indians is one. The other Shapiro used to work for ESPN and is the CEO of Six Flags. Obviously there needs to be two entires on wikipedia for Mark Shapiro.

Here is the link to Mark Shapiro's biography on sixflags.com: [1]

Done Now that this is official, I will make an edit reflecting it. But remember, he's still with Cleveland through the end of the season. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:13, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
