Huston Street and other great (and bad) sports names

[Dude!]

i am a big fan of Huston Street
i think part of it is that
he has such a cool name

Brett Favre
on the other hand
has a stupid name
that no one can
pronounce properly
unless they were born french

what names in sports
do you like
or hate?

didn't know that was Cal McLish's full names. It reminds me of Theodore Roosevelt Lilly and of course Grover Cleveland Alexander.

I don't remember who (maybe Ralph Kiner) but one of those old announcers used to say it all the time.

I always thought this was an unfortunate name for a pitcher,
not only ball four, but it's granted.

Explains why he hasn't been caught yet. They can't seem to find David Arias.

David Américo Ortiz Arias
"David Ortiz graduated from Edudia Espallat High School in the Dominican Republic and in 1992 he was signed by the Seattle Mariners who listed him as "David Arias" (possibly not understanding Spanish naming customs). He played for the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, a Mariners farm team, until 1996, when the Mariners received Dave Hollins from the Minnesota Twins for a player to be named later. Later that season, the Mariners announced that the player to be named later would be Arias. When he arrived in Minnesota, he informed the team that he preferred to be listed as "David Ortiz," making him, quite literally, a player to be named later."
