Redirect

I think the Peter G. Angelos should redirect to this page. In the Baltimore Sun I know that he is addressed with his middle initial included. 144.126.76.73 02:28, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV

This article is NPOV. I hate him as much as the next man, but i don't think the article is biased against him. Rm999 22:25, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Took out the most offending statements (the "Angelose" and "n00b" comments).More changes would require more research which I am far, far too lazy to do. Deep friar 14:40, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is it a problem that Peter Angelos' office seems to continually update this page to take out references to the negative SI article? This is not a vanity page, after all. Does this necessitate an ongoing war between those who want an accurate depiction of his tenure in the public record and his PR people? I'm new to editing Wikipedia, and I just want to know the standard, here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamleonardg (talk • contribs) 14:15, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article seems to only contain praise for the subject. I'd like to see it be more neutral, and to include well-sourced, negative information about Angelos.Scooter262 (talk) 19:41, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Can we include a link to https://www.si.com/vault/2001/02/12/8094500/birdbrained-under-the-misguided-stewardship-of-peter-angelos-the-onceproud-orioles-have-become-the-laughingstock-of-baseballand-the-worst-may-be-yet-to-come, and maybe add some quotes from it?Scooter262 (talk) 19:44, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Worst Owner

Could we please get some attribution for the "Peter Angelos was recently voted by Sports Illustrated as the worst owner in all sports. Oriole fans everywhere feel he should sell the team immediately." comments? Did a quickie search, only found an article from 2007 where an SI columnist ranked him second worst owner in MLB, was this a more recent article? --rsgdodge (talk) 02:13, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
