 * Delete  A part owner of two minor-league ice hockey teams.  If this was baseball, the hockey teams would be a Single-A teams.  There is minor news coverage of small quotes of Morelli's.  More news coverage of when he sold the Adirondack Frostbite because two ESPN anchors bought the team. (Good timing, the following season the head coach died in a motel room and the team folded).  The article's source says he is President, but not CEO of Red Rocket Merchandising.  A few sources say Red Rocket has 20ish employees.  Old Glory is a subsidiary of Red Rocket.  Web site says they have only three stores in Connecticut.  They are the retail outlet for Red Rocket.  Saybrook Capital Group appears to be a "shell" company.  Press releases stopped in 2004 and only deal with buying/selling hockey teams and Old Glory.  In the "our team" section, Saybrook's people all worked in Morelli's other companies.  All information/references about Morelli in the article comes from one of his companies. Bgwhite (talk) 06:38, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I agree, I can't find anything on him in even the New Haven Register, much less any other suitable sources. Best, Markvs88 (talk) 20:10, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
