Retired or active?

Sidebar lists both "retired" and "last active... present" — Preceding unsigned comment added by HasanDiwan (talk • contribs) 20:05, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Daughter?

In the 80s I thought I remember Mr. T mentioning a daughter in an interview. Why no mention of her in this article?

"main inspiration with regards to style and mannerisms" - grammar issue

i'm almost certain it's "with regard to"; can someone with edit ability please fix this? or change it to "as regards style and mannerisms" - either will make my OCD happy, please. thanks.

Mister T and Tony Romo starred in a 2024 Superbowl commercial for Skechers footwear.

When Mr. Romo states "Remember there is no T in skechers." Mister T steps into the frame utters his catch phrase "I pity the fool -( who has to touch his shoes to put 'em on"). He pointed to his feet and said, "T is always in Skechers!" 2601:202:100:77D0:F035:21C4:4DCA:F10F (talk) 18:17, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

-I agree with mentioning his name at birth and the way he shortened it when his father left but to continue through the page referring to him as "Tureaud" is disrespectful. He had his name changed legally at 18 to Mr. T and that is the name that should be used. [[User:Nathanieloffer|Nathanieloffer]] ([[User talk:Nathanieloffer|talk]]) 02:04, 23 December 2023 (UTC)

-== The section devoted to Commercials, totally leaves out one of the funniest Skechers Footwear ads in 2023.
