Funny player names - OOTP 2007 style
OOTP 2006 Thread

Didn't see where anyone started this list up for 2007 yet. So I'll start one.

Randomly created names using custom names file -

Jelly Cherry - Looks funnier when it shows up in OOTP as Cherry, Jelly

Happy Wages - One of the highest paid players in Vintage Baseball

I also saw in a test league - Adam West

We did too good a job making the names more realistic.

Surprisingly, so did I, in high school. And his middle initial was N. We called him Dynamite.

I rarely have fictional players, but I was running some tests and generated a test league with both Rusty Boner and B.J. King in it.

According to OOTP itself, OOTP MLB play (modern and historical) outnumbers OOTP fictional play three to one.

Five thousand thanks for a non-modder? I never thought I'd see the day. Thank you for your support.

My English league has a rather overweight pitcher by the name of Harry Balman. I saw "H. Balman" as starting pitcher on the schedule and said to myself "I hope his name is Harry."

And it was!
