Joe Flacco was born in Westmont NJ, not Audubon.

[edit]

Joe Flacco was born in Westmont NJ, a section of Haddon Township NJ. He was not born in Audubon as has been commonly reported. He went to high school in Audubon. His parents lived in the apartment complex located at (Redacted) at the time of his birth. Westmont uses the Collingswood post office. I lived a few blocks away and went to high school with his parents. My brother was in Steve Flacco's class. This is first hand information. 73.248.73.215 (talk) 22:05, 5 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not post this kind of sensitive personal information on Wikipedia. We have content polices that ensure that all content is verifiable and not based on original research (i.e. first-hand information is unacceptable; it needs to have been published in a reliable source). If you have any published reliable sources that support the information you want to add, please list them here. Mz7 (talk) 04:15, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Jets

[edit]

It's not just a rumor that Flacco has signed with the Jets. What gives? Jericho735 (talk) 22:39, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Jericho735: The Jets haven't confirmed the signing yet. See WP:RSBREAKING for how Wikipedia handles breaking news and WP:SPORTSTRANS for how the sports WikiProjects handle player transactions. Thanks! Eagles 24/7 (C) 23:11, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is reported on NFL.com, the official website of the National Football League. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jericho735 (talkcontribs) 19:20, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Jericho735: The article on NFL.com cites an anonymous source, and per WP:RSBREAKING, that isn't a reliable source. The NFL media arm is separate from the NFL organizations. Eagles 24/7 (C) 19:30, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rumors

[edit]

Someone just put that Joe Flacco is now on the Falcons but there is no proof. Cameren2021 (talk) 20:04, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Cameren2021: The edits were kindly reverted by Yankees10. Feel free to do the same in the future. GoingBatty (talk) 00:22, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok Thanks Cameren2021 (talk) 12:39, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong Information

[edit]

The stats for Flacco’s 2020 and 2021 season are wrong 2600:100C:B05B:27E8:18C2:2EA:F8AE:EF07 (talk) 12:44, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Partially fixed per https://www.nfl.com/players/joe-flacco/stats/ GoingBatty (talk) 16:34, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology for "Stint"

[edit]

"Stint" is often used on Wikipedia to refer to an athlete's time with a team and subsequent return to that team. It's not standardized language, and (while not wrong) there are better words to use. "Return" is one. "Return" is more modern, more common, more well known. "Return" is more appropriate and should be used rather than "stint".


Another alternative is that one could replace the word "stint" with the word "time" in most sentences, keep the same significance to the sentence, and have a slightly more accurate word.

[| stint Etymology Dictionary]

Another suggestion is "spell".


"Time" and "return" seem more common than "stint". "Time" seems distinct and simple, too.

Discussion questions, comments, criticism are appreciated. Additional comments are found here. ProofCreature (talk) 11:32, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Colts"

[edit]

https://www.si.com/nfl/ravens/news/baltimore-ravens-indianapolis-colts-sign-qb-joe-flacco-backup-anthony-richardson — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bswilson35 (talkcontribs) 20:28, 18 March 2024 (UTC) Hey guys anyone got any idea when to add him as a offical player — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bswilson35 (talkcontribs) 16:36, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When the Colts official website releases an article along the lines of "Colts sign QB Joe Flacco" OR if they makes a post on social media about Flacco.
Outside references like Sports Illustrated and the Associated Press (and even NFL.com) go by what reporters like Ian Rapoport and Adam Schefter say, so we don't update player pages until the team that acquires them announces it themselves. HappyBoi3892 (talk) 18:16, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Alright thank you very much man Bswilson35 (talk) 19:17, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
