Took out 2002 world series win, the Marlins did not win the 2002 world series

[edit] Renaming == == Baseball

John W Henry is known for his acomplishments in the field of money management and not Baseball. The (baseball) comment should be removed !!

The W part in his name must be included in the naming of the article, as it is the name in witch he is most commonly refered to as !

The article should be renamed John W. Henry without the (baseball) part.

For what it's worth, if the baseball section is going to stay in here, and I think it should, can someone confirm that John Henry remained a minority owner of the Yankees while he was a part owner of the Marlins, and that the Yankees required that he sell his stake in that team when he put together the purchase of the Red Sox?

[edit] John deserves a fuller and more flattering conclusion to "Early Years"

Although the first line of paragraph four states the fact accurately, I believe that John deserves a fuller and more flattering expression than that which we find there now. 68.183.87.84 19:57, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
