Do not re-sign Junior Beavers, you could go to jail for that

I just faced Colter Bean, the closer for the Yankees....unfortunately he leads the league in saves and I just found out why...

Coco Crisp and Milton Bradley. Funniest player names ever that I've seen.

I used to think the Coco thing was lame, but considering that his name is actually Covelli, Coco isn't particularly unreasonable.

It doesn't matter what his(her) last name was.

Is your manager named Bill Parcells (ah, obscure Terry Glenn references)?

A couple funny ones I've come across -

Erin Moran (of 'Joanie loves Chachi' fame)

and Hosea Farnagle (aye, 'tis a fine Amish name)

I was just reading a dynasty thread and the name Clap Clapinski was listed

Ragnar · 09-01-2004, 08:49 PM

I just faced a pitcher named "Barry White" hehehe I had to laugh.

SandMan · 09-02-2004, 12:58 AM

named ROCKY PYLE

on the darker side I noticed a player in my catobase named ALTON COLEMAN. Those from the midwest will probably remember a serial killer named Alton Coleman who went on a 4 state murder spree and was sentenced to die in Illinois for killing Kenosha resident Vernita Wheat age 10.... ran a slight shiver down my back as I read the name.

The player is now retired so I won't rename him but in the future I will look at the players on the draft list....

A decent pitcher on a divisional rival I have faced several times:

Harry "Wild Thing" Cox.

I would doubt it since the majority of people don't use their real names and therefore would have to edit the name file to include it.

Shirley Jones was a pretty good LF in my latest fictional league. Retired after a 12 year career. No Susan Dey, David Cassidy or Danny Bonaducci ever came up in the draft though...
