[mirertobrooks]

that is really funny, can you imagine what that kid went through growing up.

I think anyone whose name is Dick is funny in general, no offense to any of you Dicks out there. See even that was funny.

"No that guys name was Mitch Cumsting, he was putting at night with the 17 year old daughter of the Dean."

By the way, Lucious Pusey has changed his last name. His new last name is something like Seymour. I work for a major sports preview magazine company and we discovered this guy a few weeks early as well.

Oh that's bad. I'm sorry, I would have to change my name. How many times has he heard "excuse me" when he introduces himself. Also, a 5' 8" 208 LB is gonna hear alot of smack talking on the field with that name. Yikes!

Former Nascar driver Dick Trickle. Poor bastard. I'd be swingin from the friggin' shower curtain rod with my own shoe laces if I was saddled with that gem.

I went to a cross country camp in Vermont with a kid named Clint Toris. I swear its true. He was such a jerk too. I guess I can't blame him.

Really? Cool. Care to tell the name of it?

Athlon Sports.

Ok, so these aren't sports names but they are still funny.

One is a guy in my class whose name was Kurt Loser. Upon interviewing for admittance into the dental school, the interviewer told him..."you may want to change your name." He did and now it's Kurt Losier...he ran for some position 1st year and lost probably because he explained that he used to be named Kurt Loser. I guess the name stuck...

My younger sister once had a teacher who talked about a kid she had in her class once. Before anyone complains about vulgarity, this was the kids real name. Shithead. That's right. It is pronounced Shi-th-ead I feel bad for that person...

FSU has a WR by the name of Darrin Fagg, or Derrick Fagg, I'm not sure about the first name but I know the back of his jersey reads FAGG. Musberger was doing a game one time and said " the catch is made by.... Fagg... and sort of giggled.
