Talk:Johnny Unitas

message: The first few references have nothing whatsoever to do with pop culture and should be removed. Somebody seems to have gotten that section mixed up with 'trivia'.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.33.84.245 (talk) 16:41, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Pop Culture" 

message: I believe Johnny Unitas, deserves a lot more, respect 
than that. It's disrespectful to, even joke about
someone who, did a lot of stuff, that you could 
probably never do. And, just because, someone names
a poker hand after him, doesn't mean, it should be
discussed, under a Johnny Unitas, talk page.

replies: text: How is it even disrespectful? Johnny Unitas was a good guy and a good football player, not a deity on earth. His name may be spoken. Get over it.4.158.198.72 (talk) 21:08, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Once, while playing a game, Unitas broke his nose. To stop the bleeding he shoved mud up his nostril. He played the entire game. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 205.213.113.57 (talk) 22:16, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Stats Removal 

message: The AP obituary lists his age as 4. Other sources, including an ESPN sportscentury feature and what's possibly a letter from his own wife give his age as 5. Is it possible that the AP story contains the real mistake? Are there other reliable sources that give the age of 4? --Onorem♠Dil 22:36, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Age when his father died 

message: I'm going to change the description of his 1968 injury, as I don't think calling it "chronic" is completely accurate.  Unitas suffered a specific injury in the preseason, and since they didn't have such things as arthroscopic surgery, the only available treatment seemed to be resting the arm.  (I could be wrong on this point - perhaps another member is a medical expert.) Elsquared (talk) 02:37, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  update re: 1968 injury 

message: The article currently says, "Due to an elbow injury suffered during his playing career, he was unable to use his right hand." I shook hands with him in 1979, and his right hand worked just fine. I remember how huge it was.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cowdery (talk • contribs) 00:56, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: From my own personal experience, I have a pinched nerve in my elbow that affects usage of my left hand.  I can certainly shake hands with it, but I don't have full motor abilities, and I regularly get hand cramps. Now imagine a sports injury in the elbow.  At any rate, the content should reflect the sources, whether one can grasp it or not. Stevie is the man! Talk • Work 01:45, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The source says "barely has use of", not "unable to use". I changed the article phrasing accordingly. —BarrelProof (talk) 03:02, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

message: Should Baltimore Ravens Ring of Honor be listed among the highlights in the infobox?
* Oppose I note that yes, he is indeed a member of the Ravens Ring of Honor. However, he was never a member of the team and this honor comes off as very minor in an infobox that is already crammed with many more prestigious and relevant honors. Editorial judgement should be used here; the purpose of an infobox is to give an overview of the most important details of a player's career. This is not an important detail, it's merely a footnote.
