Delete. Questionable notability, has an odor of original research. Crockspot (talk) 20:09, 29 August 2009 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:33, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

Delete. The title "CareerBall" was apparently coined by the article author for his book, which falls under the category of articles wrongly titled as neologisms. But even the article itself smacks of original research, and doesn't feel rightly encyclopedic. It wouldn't surprise me if it was copied directly from his book, and I don't think it's salvageable. • Anakin (talk) 15:48, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
