Great names in sports

[Abro1975]

While channel flipping before GOT tonight , I caught a little of the Olympic trials for swimming and diving. And one of the high platform divers to qualify for Rio :
Steele Johnson ! Credit to his parents for that heck of a name !

Now watching "Last week tonight w John Oliver' and they are talking about Olympic doping scandals (they go way back and still going) and they mention an Olympic exec: Dick Pound ! lol

In terms of awkward names, we need look no further than NYJ owner and GOP kingmaker Woody Johnson. I can imagine at J&J new hire orientations, he introduces himself with "Hi, I'm Woody Johnson" while saying to himself, "And if I see the slightest hint of a smirk, you're fired!".

Wasn't there a guy way back when on the Expos or Red Sox by the name of Razor Shines. Always thought that was a cool name.

I used to work with a woman named Misty Raines and her sister's name was Stormy Raines. We use to joke about going to the strip club. Also, I have a friend who sister's name is Secret Love.

I think he later coached a women's softball team and made them practice in the rain.....too much.

Always thought the perfect name for a defensive end would be " Noxious Fumes", haven't seen him yet.

And then there's the legendary Fair Hooker of the NFL....Cleveland Browns I think.
I can still remember a Monday Night Football broadcast back in the day, where one of the announcers said this guy's name and Don Meredith....who was doing the game...replied that there was no such thing as a fair hooker.
