Talk:Kirby Puckett

message: currently states that kirby moved to arizona due to mounting controversy in Minnesota.  Seems POV to me, and not really provable
:No, this is probable.  He was involved in sesual aligations, in which, although he was cleared of charges, his reputation was somewhat blurred.  I dont really think is POV, anyways.--Gephart 07:05, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Actually, he seems to have lost his sight from a “central vein occlusion” (blood clot), although he did have glaucoma.  Not sure how to find a "definitive" reference however.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.95.232.200 (talk) 10:37, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I've got a definitive reference for this now --  -- I've updated the text to say "central retinal vein occlusion", giving that as a cite. -- The Anome (talk) 12:00, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

message: If Puckett was acquitted, what's the controversy?  Why is this section still there???  If no one says anything, I think it ought to be removed.

replies: text: You either didn't live in MN or didn't follow the Twins because it was VERY controversial when all the "Kirby isn't the super guy we all thought he was" came out and was squeeky clean image was tarnished. Although I'm obviously not married to it, I definitely think that the section should stay in some form. Ckruschke (talk) 16:32, 19 July 2011 (UTC)

message: Currently 8.2% of the total words in this article are devoted to the incident in Eden Prairie and 10.9% of the article talks about controversy.  75% of the total controversy revolves around the charges of assault in Eden Prairie.  I do agree that it is significant; however, I believe undue weight has been applied to that incident, specifically because he was acquitted.  I propose changing the statement  To read  Or something of the like.  Ryan Vesey Review me!
:Wow 8.2% & 10.9%! This must be serious if you actually looked it up!  ;-) I'm good with your suggestion, although it might be useful to add something like "stemming from charges that he groped a woman in a restaurant bathroom" so that the reader doesn't have to look up the context. What do you think? Ckruschke (talk) 21:10, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, if you have no objections I'll implement the statement as  I will also add in the references where they are needed and I modified your statement slightly just because I think this sounds better.  Is writing "in September 2002" correct or should it be "on September 2002"?  Thanks for the references on the information that was presented directly before this.  Ryan Vesey Review me! 21:36, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Whatever you thinks sounds better is fine with me. I think "in September" is correct - "on" denotes a specific date (such as "on September 22") - but then again I'm an engineer so grammar isn't my forte. Keep up the good work! Ckruschke (talk) 13:36, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
