Talk:Reggie White

message: Reggie White was an integral part of forcing the NFL to re-evaluate its free agency system. That's the only reason he was able to leave Philadelphia for Green Bay. Something must be written to reflect that. There was also a Sports Illustrated cover story on the matter, if someone can find that image. --207.69.138.10 16:40, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: This is disgusting. How can you say that it's because of drugs, based on the fact that it was a sudden death? Also, the drugs would have been found (especially crack). He was life flighted. In the little bit of time that took, his system wouldn't have cleared up.
Therefore, I definitely, do not believe, Reggie White was, on drugs. C2 aaron 14:57, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

message: He may have died partially from sleep apnea which often affects large muscular individuals. I included it in the article as it's known he did suffer from it and in the USA today source I put in the article states that the medical examiner says it may have played a part in his death. Here are some extra sources if it's doubted.    
Hopefully it'll end those stupid drug rumors Iamhungey (talk) 18:50, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:In His Shadow bookcover.jpg

message: None of it seems to be well-cited or documented and all of it comes across as somebody with an agenda trying to rewrite his biography to magnify what may either be a minor or completely non-existent part of his life story. It has almost nothing to do with his image on or off the field and I speak from personal experience as someone who closely followed his career and never once heard Messianic Judaism mentioned by him or anyone who knew him. Some higher level editor may want to consider removing the irrelevant material since I don't have the time to confirm or deny any of the references, but they seem very suspicious at just a casual glance. 68.229.184.37 (talk) 08:05, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  What's with all the Messianic Judaism stuff? 

message: There should be at least one picture of Reggie in Eagles garb on this page.  He did spend most of his career there.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.104.67.222 (talk) 18:45, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Philadelphia pictures 

message: This page should include "Reggie's Prayer" a film that Reggie White starred in. If you feel there is no proof of the film I have a link and a summary below if it helps. It may need some revising cause I haven't watched it in a while.
In 1996 White starred in a Christian film with Pat Morita in Reggie's Prayer as the main protagonist "Reggie Knox" a football player much like White, but retires after the 1996 season to become a 10th Grade Language Arts teacher and Head Coach of a high school football team in Portland, Oregon. The film also had appearances by his Packers teammates Brett Favre and head coach Mike Holmgren as janitors, M.C. Hammer as a park ranger, and another teammate from the Packers Keith Jackson as an assistant coach.

message: Are the sack totals just from regular seasons? (probably, since number of games played equaled 16). Is it fair to include postseason totals in the tally? 72.174.131.123 (talk) 22:59, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: If you mean the infobox, then no. The infobox is just to show the regular season totals. Unless there's a postseason record to post. White had 198 regular season sacks and 12 in the postseason. Bringingthewood (talk) 23:34, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: OK. Some outlets include Tom Brady's total yardage and touchdowns in his career tally. I thought it might be similar for this defensive player. Thanks. 72.174.131.123 (talk) 01:23, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: You're welcome. Why some of those outlets would do that, I don't know. But on Wikipedia and pro-football-reference.com for example, there are regular season and postseason sections. The infobox here, like Tom Brady's, shows just his regular season stats. Under 'NFL career statistics' you'll see his breakdown. It shouldn't matter, offensive or defensive player, the infobox has only regular season totals. Regards. Bringingthewood (talk) 01:32, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
