Comments

Early life

• Overall, this is good. I'd link WR and DB, if you can, so readers who don't know about football can learn what those positions mean.

ESPN

• The first part here is good, but the last sentence is confusing. First, if it's going to just be one sentence, it should be combined with another paragraph instead of just hanging out there by itself. But more importantly, you should explain the significance of being "selected to co-host the first SportsCenter to originate from DC-2 (Digital Center 2) at 11 p.m." I watch ESPN all the time, and even I don't know why this is a fact worth reporting.

Done. Removed as an insignificant work. Browsed everywhere but found nothing worth. Ikhtiar H (talk) 15:55, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Catchphrases

• The one without a citation should be removed unless you can find a citation for it.

Done. Ikhtiar H (talk) 15:00, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Personal life

• Is there anything in the source material about how he and his wife met, or why they got divorced?

NNot Done. Coemgenus, it is already mentioned that he was in a relationship with Kristin Spodobalski both in the reference and in this section. But it is not clear that it was the cause of their divorce. Therefore, it should be kept in the way it is written. Ikhtiar H (talk) 15:24, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

If it's not there, it's not there. We can't do more that the sources provide. --Coemgenus (talk) 16:07, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Tributes

• Those one-sentence paragraphs should be combined and made into a cohesive paragraph.

Done. Ikhtiar H (talk) 15:27, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Television

• If you can't find a citation for the two shows that don't have them, take them out.

Done. Ikhtiar H (talk) 15:43, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

That's all for now. There's not much that the article needs, and I look forward to your fixes. --Coemgenus (talk) 15:09, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Coemgenus, all done. Ikhtiar H (talk) 15:55, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

This looks fine, I'll pass it right away. Nice work! --Coemgenus (talk) 16:09, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
