Funny Player Names - OOTP 12

FoosballWizard · 07-06-2011, 10:29 PM

I didn't see a funny player names thread for 12 yet, so I'll start off with this wonderful gem:

MANUEL NORIEGA IS ANGRY.

They say that prison does that to a man.

Here are a few:

Mr. Doudle's nickname is as given. I didn't add it; I swear. (I felt I had to add Mr. So's, however.)... And Cass Elliot is ugly! Whoda thunk it?

OakDragon · 07-06-2011, 10:59 PM

Also, here's one player I'm keeping an eye on...

I'm told he can't lose.

An unique one I saw from a custom historical file.

Beau Fort

I can imagine the confusion:
"What is your name?"
"Beau Fort"
"And what is your last name Beaufort?"
"No, my name is Beau Fort."
"Yes we know that, but what is your last name?"...

I just added a new guy to the DB and his first name is JOAN. Thought they mispelled it so I checked several different sources we use and sure enough..his first name is Joan. Does that qualify??? Parents must have wanted a daughter..

I'm on my iPhone at the moment and can't take a screenshot but the starting left fielder for a team in my division is Dennis Doody

I have James James in one of my leagues.

I love the double name phenomenon in sports games.

I don't think I've seen one in either OOTP or FOF yet, though.

The last I remember having is one in the NFL2k series where I had a reserve tight end named Lawrence Lawrence.

This Guy must of had it rough as a kid!

Too bad FaceGen doesn't appear to support pockmarks at the moment.

AESP_pres · 07-08-2011, 12:42 AM

Some players drafted in 2012 in my game

I don't have a clue of how to pronounce the first guy name

Lol...hmmm...The thing I noticed about this pic is the team record...126-36.

Holy crap...please tell me they won the series...

My favorite of all time was a pitcher named "Dimaster Delgado" a 1 star pitcher from an oniine league I was in on Ootp 11. A close second is Addie Oostermeer.

All fear the Di master!

I believe Dimasther is an actual real life player (Braves organization I think).. I have him with my AAA team in Las Vegas (Blue Jays) in year 2020, he has a career MBL record of 3-7 6.75 ERA with 22 G 13 GS (appeared in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018).

I figure it's probably a fairly common OOTP name, but I just saw Richard Wagner. He spent 2011 in Rookie ball after being in AAA for half of 2010.
