what nationality is Mike McDaniel?….it says multi-racial….really don’t know what that means…

The page says he played at Yale. He studied there, but never played.

I believe he was born on March 3rd 1983. NM — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:441:4300:DB60:3962:73BE:2EBA:B8EE (talk) 08:22, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"originally born"?[edit]

Is it really necessary to say that "McDaniel was originally born in Aurora, Colorado in 1983." It seems redundant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:CCF0:A2C0:7102:8958:D1F1:B6FE (talk) 08:55, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 10 February 2022[edit]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Remove the statement that Mike McDaniel played football at Yale. He did not. He studied history, but did not play beyond high school.

Washington "Red*****."[edit]

This needs to be the Commanders. 2600:1012:B00F:733F:FD44:2C33:B6C3:A796 (talk) 00:22, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Can’t change history[edit]

If the name of team was the Redskins when Mike McDaniel's coaching why clear up. Doing such edits will not let others using this online archive/tool to learn from errors of past, and continue the meaningful conversations that in the end led to team name change after many years under the Washington Redskin moniker. Heck in 2135 after WW5 folks may not be in favor of any Commander’s and wonder why after the teams 75th loosing season they have such a name. Ps I’m a Dolphins fan, and I don’t see us being any better in 2135 either. 52.119.115.162 (talk) 03:01, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Repeated information in "Early Life and Playing Career" & "Personal Life"[edit]

There seems to be some redundancy with how McDaniel's degree in history is briefly mentioned in both sections.

I'm new to wikipedia editing so I'm not sure whether to remove it from one section or the other, but it seems unnecessary to have it in both sections. 129.15.64.228 (talk) 16:37, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

updated picture[edit]

can y'all please find a better picture of the man i would do it myself but dont know how exactly the copyright stuff works Tristan2330 (talk) 04:37, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We should add information regarding Mike's 865 days out of the NFL.[edit]

He succumbed to alcoholism. Pretty important for the personal life section 2601:147:4780:2970:935D:E5F8:A812:5AC1 (talk) 00:52, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
