[edit] Cleanup

I removed a lot of POV and unverified data from this article; however, I think the rest of the article needs to be looked over and confirmed to be NPOV. I am actually disappointed that this is all there is off this former American Olympian. I really think some expansion is in order here too. James084 02:55, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Well, as someone that grew up with him and counted him as a close personal friend from the time I was 5 years old, I can vouch for the authenticity of it. You can also find most of this information in his various interviews dating back to just before the Barcelona Olympic Games, his public speaking tours, and his book. Perhaps the only thing lacking would be specific names of his friends. - Hmoul—Preceding unsigned comment added by Hmoul (talk • contribs) 06:59, March 26, 2006

There are three signs in the page that repeat the same caution of "no sources". I removed two to balance out the page. =D Jumping cheese 05:48, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Original research

Though what Hmoul says above may be true, that is original research and we still need some reliable sources. Katr67
