[edit] Crack dealer

Regarding the crack dealer info, I wouldn't take anything he said on Howard Stern as fact. -S

[edit] Whereabouts

I'm reasonably sure that the radio segment cited on the page regarding Tracy Morgan's current whereabouts is a gag. Comedian Craig Gass (Craig Gass) frequently appears on radio shows posing as one of the personalities he does impressions of shooting a movie in whatever area in which the station broadcasts. WNNX 99.7 in Atlanta had a similar "special appearance" by a visiting Morgan and Adam Sandler in late January, which happened to be at the same time as Gass was performing at a local comedy club. Since Gass's touring schedule on his website has not been recently updated, I cannot prove anything, but since Tom Arnold is also one of Gass's specialties, I can assume as such Gass was in Columbia doing a show, and that he conducted an interview in the characters of Tom Arnold and Tracy Morgan. If someone in Columbia can confirm Gass's whereabouts on the date in question, that would be appreciated.

[edit] Totally Awesome

He also did a movie called 'totally awesome'. it's an 80s parody flick. very funny.68.102.37.191 05:18, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Children

Did he actually say on the April 18, 2007 Conan O'Brien show that he had his first child when he was aged 11? I'm not sure I caught this correctly. Badagnani 05:10, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] TMZ photo

I removed the following:

On July 2, 2007, Morgan was photographed walking hand-in-hand with a woman identified by the website tmz.com as his wife. However, the woman in the photo is not, in fact, his wife, leading to speculation as to whom the woman is, and if there is any significance to the pair being photographed in an intimate manner.

The following website was cited as a source:

http://www.tmz.com/2007/07/02/tracy-morgan-probation-chic/

However, on that website, the only speculation that the woman is not his wife came from the public comments section. It would be relevant enough if properly sourced- as was, however, what we had was a libelous claim incorrectly backed up by a weird photo. Nigel Napalm21:18, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Description of suspicious orders coming from Morgan in Leu of drug arrest

In the fourth sentence of the second article of the "Substance Abuse" section, the following sentence need a direct quote : "According to reports from the scene, Morgan smelled of alcohol, marijuana, semen, and peanuts, a potential violation of his probation for a DUI charge.". Such a description, without direct access to the reference source would appear to seem like an exaggeration if not fictitious.

[edit] Birthplace

Though raised in the Bronx, Tracy was born in Brooklyn. Source: Interview with Tracy on Ronn Owens show, KGO radio, 10-25-07. -LDC 18:34, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Racist bitch

This guy's a racist bitch, i couldn't stand the advertisments for First Sunday. First of all, with these dopey black movies, they're hyped way too much, and another, they can get away with downing whites and other non blacks casually. It was so annoying having to hear this dumb racist nigger complain about a "white Jesus" and it was advertised on just about every channel. They would hit the roof if the movie had two white men in a church and happen upon a picture of a "black Jesus" and one of them complain. This crap shouldn't be tolerated. I do call ignorant racist blacks niggers just because they deserve it for talking racist in public. TonyGanton46 (talk) 18:02, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Other Work

The second paragraph of the Other Work section seems to contain a large ammount of obviously made-up information. Sex with gazelles, horses, and chickens? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.44.172.24 (talk) 13:13, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
