Photo[edit]

Okay, I'm not going to get involved in the revert-revert-revert business, but I think Mevins31 is biased towards his own picture of Bruce, where he is making a weird face and there is some stuff in front of him. I see in the history that there are others who agree with me. Maybe we can discuss here which photo to use. The photos in question are shown to the right

Obviously, the picture without the rain and weird facial expression is far superior to the clear, artistic, elegant, profile shot from blevine37. This is just from an ordinary, Jay Bruce fan who is purely interested in furthering his career. Thank you for your consideration.

Mevins31 says:

I will be changing your elegant profile shot of Bruce to a better picture as soon as I upload it. I appreciate ordinary Jay Bruce fans, but I am Jay's biggest fan. Thanks for your attention. I think Jay would agree that a picture on Wikipedia has little to do with furthering his career, but nice try. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mevins31 (talk • contribs) 18:14, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article is so biased it's not even funny —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.246.179.127 (talk) 10:48, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hneastham: Can someone please change his middle name. His middle name is not Anderson, it is Allen. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hneastham (talk • contribs) 20:14, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality[edit]

His gem of a game was shining even brighter? What is this English class nonsense? Please consider review and edit regarding neutrality of article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.246.179.127 (talk) 10:55, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
