Talk:Sports in Pittsburgh

message: I took out the reference to the 1904 IHL under the ice hockey section.  The link it used was a redirect to some homepage that only had a link itself and a few old photos in relation to Pittsburg(h)'s team.  This seems like a good subject to explore, but like I said, the page it was linked to didn't seem like a good enough reference.Exoterrick 20:12, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I overhauled a bunch of other stuff today.  Didn't want to get too in depth since this should just be an overview page, but a lot of the prior stuff seemed kind of boastful, so I wanted to take that out when possible (being that this is supposed to be unbiassed).  Feel free to whittle if necessary or correct mistakes.  I did have two questions if anyone has answers:
1. I took out the reference to the 1914-15 Pittsburgh Burghers because I assumed they were talking about the Federal League Rebels.  Does anyone have anything more about the Burghers?  Are they worth mentioning here?
2. What are we pulling the 'swimming pool per capita' statement from?  Is there a good source for this?Exoterrick 15:59, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

message: For some reason I seem to be under the impression that Pittsburgh had a (semi-)professional soccer team named "Dynamo" once - is that true? If yes, it should be added to the article. Mabuse 13:31, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Colts???

message: If you have a POV (point of view) that thinks data should not be included on this page I am more than happy to discuss that.  To randomly delete valid and sourced data from wiki pages must be a brand new policy.  As a responsible citizen of wikipedia striving to be good, I should start randomly deleting data on pages all day today.  Oh wait, that would be bad.  Happy to discuss us copying data to new pages (within reason), that is if those who are deleting data from this page can take a break from their busy days of reverting wikipedia back to 2003.

replies: text: It's nothing about WP:POV, read the policy to get the specifics on what is POV. It's the fact that it is too specific to include such a list here. Those facts are included in each specific article about the school's football team where they belong. Grsz11 13:41, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

text: I agree the list should be removed, WP:POV has nothing to do with this. This page covers many teams, including over 20 professional and a number of colleges. Why one or two should have such beyond depth coverage is far beyond me. That infomation should have its own article as does Pittsburgh Pirates seasons or Pittsburgh Pirates seasons because having seasons lists for over 20 teams is ridiculous and repeated info from other articles. Not to mention a list of seasons for every sport at every college mentioned (why should women's track at Robert Morris not be listed?) blackngold29 16:19, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

text: Those lists were nice, but way to specific for this article and should not be included here.  It cluttered the article and was way beyond the scope of this article. I moved your bowl table to Pittsburgh Panthers football#Bowl games. You may want to do the same for the other teams on your table. Besides that, WVU is NOT a Pittsburgh team and should not be included in an article about Pittsburgh sports. CrazyPaco (talk) 18:55, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

message: I believe that somewhere in this article should be a sentence saying that twice the city of pittsburgh has hosted two champion teams in the same year and is the only city to do it at all.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.61.169.186 (talk) 05:48, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
