Talk:Jack Kelly Jr. (rower)

Untitled
I am not sure why someone added the "Philadelphia Portal" graphic on the main section of the article. It is a link to a page on Philadelphia which has little significance to the subject-matter of the article. I moved it to the "Link" section of the article -- which seemed appropriate. I also moved the "WikiProject Philadelphia" to the bottom of this page, as it too, is of minimal importance to this article Swlenz 23:43, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Memorial
One of Jack's daughters passed recently: http://www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/news/obituaries/14679081.htm This writer knew her, and her cooking. Rest in peace, Liz. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.115.67.60 (talk • contribs)

I also knew her and her cooking, especially her unique and wonderful hand-crafted "fig newtons" and her restaurant The Brickworks (named for the family business). Rest in peace, Liz. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.20.119.24 (talk) 21:32, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

Kelly at the Olympics
"In 1960, Kelly competed in the double scull at his final Olympics in Rome. His boat would be eliminated in the repechage."

What in pity sakes is a "repechage?" If contributors insist upon using obscure terms, they really need to explain them in the text. \Dick Kimball (talk) 15:13, 20 July 2009 (UTC) [edit]

Assessment
With a few more references, this article could easily become C-class. Ng.j (talk) 20:33, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

Middle name spelling
Was his middle name Brendan or Brenden? Sources give both. Wikipedia says his father was Brendan. —  AjaxSmack 00:00, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
