[edit] Philadelphia Giants

Currently, Philadelphia Giants is a redirect to this article. From 1902-16, the Philadelphia Giants were an important Negro league team located in Philadelphia. The Boston Royal Giants (at least according to this article) appear to have been organized about 1923. Because the "Philadelphia Giants" name apparently was sometimes used for the team, there may have been a connection of some sort, but it isn't clear to me what it was.

If there are no objections, I propose to change the Philadelphia Giants page from a redirect to an article about the 1902-16 Philadelphia team. I would put in a disambiguation header so if anyone went to it looking for the Boston Royal Giants article they would still be able to find it. Is that agreeable? BRMo 02:44, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
