Comment: Previously a member of the number one ''Halo 2'' team in the world. Passes  by playing at the absolute highest level of his sport- and I'd considered getting paid a quarter of a million bucks to play video games is rather notable in its own right

Comment: Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.... First, whether or not gaming is a sport, the gamers are still competitors of the highest level, and Saiyan was a member of Final Boss, the #1 team and the most media-saturated and notable. The team got a $1,000,000 contract to play games, so I would say they'd have to be the top competitors. They're on TV, they're mentioned on virtually every gaming site on the web, and there are more than enough sources to make this a good article. (In fact, I am trying to start a WikiProject:Pro Gaming in order to make these the good articles they can be, here's a link to the proposal for anyone interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Proposals#Pro_Gaming) Here's some sources to build an article from:Interview with Ryan "Saiyan" Danford http://www.team3d.net/index.php?s=news&d=comments&id=2490, probably the 10th separate link I've found referring to their contract http://games.kikizo.com/news/200606/134.asp, an interview with NBA star Gilbert Arenas who signed them for 1 mil (he mentions Ryan) http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/gamegurus/hollywoodgoesgaming/20061113-gilbertarenas.htm, a link discussing his involvement in the World Gaming Championships (he and his partner were beaten by Ogre 1 and 2) http://www.gotfrag.com/halo/story/29498/, and you can probably find more abut him in any link I gave for Final Boss, Tom Ryan, or Dan Ryan on their AfD's in you still need more links. Again, this is about whether or not they have enough  sources, and meet , which he does by being a top competitor (it doesn't say athlete, but competitor, making the sport argument completely moot). I've feel that I've proven notability enough over all these articles to prove that they can become good, useful articles, and like I said, I'm committing to improving them  and finding others to help improve them through a new WikiProject
