[edit] Name

I reverted the unreferenced, undiscussed move by User:Chrisjnelson to this longstanding article which has been moved several times before, always with the Willie Colon spelling but with different disambiguations due largely to the POV pushers who insist that it is okay to use "football" when referring to soccer, but not when referring to real football.

Chrisjnelson moved this to a name not supported by the reference provided in the infobox here, and not supported by the Pittsburgh Steelers official site. I don't know if it was just plain vandalism or what, but this guy is clearly generally known as Willie Colon, and that's where this article should be in accordance with Wikipedia:Naming conventions. The other guy, an American musician, generally uses the Willie Colón spelling, unlike the football player. But the two weren't even cross-referenced before; I fixed that, too.
