1996 Olympic Team

I edited the page to reflect the fact that Hardaway was part of the 1996 Olympic team, but I can't figure out to format it so that Hardaway's name appears in black instead of linked. A little help here, please? sikeyim seni piç orospu

And if someone goes ahead and fixes it, could you tell me how to do it?

Relation

are tim hardaway and penny hardaway related? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.211.231.85 (talk) 00:09, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Where are you getting this?

Please put some references in. And also don't use words like "currently" as that may change and leave wikipedia obsolete. 70.19.31.152

NPOV

Removed the line "Hardaway obviously had to pass a physical and I'm confident that with his hard work and dedication, he can be a contribte to the Miami Heat in ways that Eddie Jones couldn't in his second stint with Miami." Attila226 17:23, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Picture

Does anyone have a photo we can use of Penny for his page? It is starting to shape up nicely and a photo would really do wonders.

There isnt anything in here about his role in the movie "Blue Chips". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.176.2.194 (talk) 12:13, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Stray bullit

After he was robbed at gun point he was,, let me get this straight. Shot in the foot by a 'stray' bullit, this sounds unreliable, --McNoddy (talk) 13:11, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is a true story. Anyone who followed Penny during his career knew this. http://m.commercialappeal.com/news/2008/aug/21/penny-hardaway-give-1-million-university-memphis/ --Elkman8102 (talk) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.243.119.57 (talk) 07:31, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How did the name "Anfernee" come about?

I'm surprised there is no mention in the article about where the name "Anfernee" came from. Is it a family name? A malapropism? A misspelling by the doctor? An intentional misspelling by the family to be unique? I've read elsewhere that Penny's mom had trouble pronouncing the name Anthony and the doctor just wrote it as he heard it, but that doesn't sound right. I was hoping Wikipedia would have the real answer and am a little surprised that it's not even mentioned here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 153.39.210.222 (talk) 15:49, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

LIL Penny

Not a word about Lil Penny. Fail. How many athletes have a very popular series of commercials about them starring Chris Rock? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.55.151.111 (talk) 01:50, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
