There are no Wikipedia pages of any other PR executives from major sports franchises on Wikipedia. This individual is just seeking attention. Yes, his name has been in a number of major news outlets, but only because he's a PR guy, not because he's notable. There are also weasel words throughout the article. 50.177.81.255 (talk) 18:24, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Weak delete I don't see any great harm in having this, but is he notable? This article would be a good profile in an alumni association newsletter, which we could use as background for the one thing that makes him notable, but what is that thing? The Pete Rozelle award seems to be a fairly minor award – we only have one sentence on it. A well-liked guy who does a good job and is active in community work, but it seems like it needs something more. – Margin1522 (talk) 12:14, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep - There are plenty of RS articles about him, and he has been a top ranking sports executive for decades with a very public profile. The Pete Rozelle is a major national award, which definitely helps as well. There is only one sentence there purely because no one has bothered to write more about it yet.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Keep I found several news articles quickly in a google news search from reliable sources.  Appears to surpass WP:GNG.  We may need to edit based on WP:COI and/or WP:NPV and or WP:ADV... but these are all editing and cleanup issues, not an issue about the deletion of the article.  Any "weasel words" can be edited out and an article of a notable individual will remain.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:33, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
