I wonder if they're related...

Anytime I stumble across two guys with the same last name, I always wonder if they are brothers.

Usually they always wind up being too far apart in age or different ethnicities, or one was born in CA and one in FL, which doesn't make it so realistic.

Finally found a pair that match though. The Hoopers are 3 years apart and both were born in NY, NY and bear a similar resemblance.

I always wondered if Cy Young and Irv Young were related.

I confess, I often wonder the same thing.
