Early years?

Where is the cite for Allen's Pop Warner career? Is it really relevant? There is more history on Allen as a 6 year old than there is on his high school career. Any help in this area would be appreciated (especially fleshing out Allen's high school career). Sundevilesq 23:04, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Picture

I was watching the Labour Day Classic game on CBC when he surpassed Warren Moon's passing record. There were plenty of shots of him holding up his hand to the crowd with 1 finger indicating he was #1, and with the game ball. If someone could get a shot of this, I think it would be awesome to put into the article. -- Reaper X 01:55, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Addded pic from a poster of Allen that captures that moment. Hope it meets Wiki scrutiny! Sundevilesq 16:58, 20 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pro Football HOF

Someone added a comment about the Pro Football HOF "refuses to mention" Damon Allen. I think this sentence and the one after it are awkward and untrue. I don't know the process for the PF HOF, but I don't think they've even been asked to consider Allen yet for the hall. I mean, he only broke the passing record a few weeks ago. As well the comment attributed to Moon doesn't really add anything to the article. I think those last two sentences should be removed.

I completely agree. Even though I think the Pro Football HoF is a joke because it is basically the NFL Hall of Fame, Allen isn't even eligible for it yet as he's still, you know, playing. That bit had to go and I'd have removed it myself if I'da noticed it. Lord Bob 19:12, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Grandfather?!

The Globe and Mail mentions that Allen is a grandfather. How many Football players are grandfathers? Should this be mentioned in the Personal Life section of the article.
