Going to be reviewing this article as part of the GAN Backlog Drive of April to May 2020. MWright96 (talk) 19:40, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for picking this up! I have made two small changes, but I think, it should be good now. The infobox might be a little confusing now. But as I state in the article body, he had his contract terminated in 2000, but only officially retired in 2001, that's why the two dates don't quite match. Zwerg Nase (talk) 09:12, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
