Pro football's All-Decade team of the 1960s

edit

Does anyone know what is "pro football's All-Decade team of the 1960s"? It's mentioned in obits for Billy Shaw.[1] It's in the WP article too, so I was initially thiking that it was a case of WP:CIRCULAR, but I see that it's in a 1999 issue of The Coffin Corner. There's AFL All-Time Team, and NFL 1960s All-Decade Team is only for NFL. Was there an AFL–NFL decade team?—Bagumba (talk) 13:46, 5 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Why does this link redirect to the 1990 NFL Draft Page. What happened to his page? Kelliecharging (talk) 01:16, 8 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Someone redirected it without discussion. This guy started 103 games so I restored the article. That's terrible. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 01:25, 8 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

NFL Rosters

edit

Hi

When a final roster is listed on a team page. Is the final roster the final PostSeaon roster or the Final Regular season roster. I just got a message from a user that is upset because after he edited the regular season roster into the final postseason roster. I changed it back. who is correct on this

What page was this? And final rosters get put in once a regular season is complete and they have been eliminated from playoff contention. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 20:11, 8 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
So does that mean the final rosters on the team pages include players on the post season roster? The pages I'm talking about are the Patriots pages with Tom Brady Kelliecharging (talk) 20:43, 8 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, they should basically be a snapshot of the last gameday roster regardless if it was Week 18 or the Super Bowl. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 20:49, 8 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Source Help

For the life of me, I can't find a source for the following:

I have my Newspapers.com access back (ironically not through Wikipedia, but I can access directly through Newspapers.com now) but still can't find anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated! « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 23:27, 11 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

For NEA, try checking the World Almanac source listed at Newspaper Enterprise Association NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award, except the Internet Archive is down right now because of a hack. World Almanac used to be part of NEA, and would list some of their awards. When I fully sourced NEA's Jim Thorpe Trophy (MVP), I never found anything definitive stating "this is the end". Luckily, PFR also had the list, and it matched the last newspaper announcement I could find. But that's not always bulletproof. I found later entries for Helms Foundation College Basketball Player of the Year that weren't at Sports Reference. Good luck. —Bagumba (talk) 04:24, 12 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
I haven't found much on NEA for later years, but did find the 1999 winner. —Bagumba (talk) 10:13, 12 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
I've added the 1997 and 1998 NEA winners to the page. I'm actually skeptical about that 1999 article without seeing the NEA's DPOY that year too. It's possible they just put in the wrong award name for James, who won other ROYs. Will be able to check a few other possibilities once Internet Archive is back up. —Bagumba (talk) 10:56, 12 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Can you please check out the Saints 2017 Roster and Alex Jenkins Int'l notation. Looks like someone messed it up. Kelliecharging (talk) 20:48, 14 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

What is going on with the NFL rosters?! Kelliecharging (talk) 20:50, 15 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Kelliecharging: Could you be more clear? I have no idea what you're asking and I'd imagine I'm not the only one. Hey man im josh (talk) 22:06, 15 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
The 1988 Giants roster had the Defensive linemen listed under the Defensive backs. I looked back on the recent changes and saw that the template had an error. so I fixed it. Kelliecharging (talk) 22:10, 15 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
