The 2005 season opener for the Jacksonville Jaguars and Seattle Seahawks started with the Jaguars kicker Josh Scobee kicking off to Seahawks kick returner Josh Scobey.

In the spirit of this thread,  I can't believe I forgot about former LSU player Austin Nola, who was drafted into the Miami Marlins system. Here is a shot of him playing for the AA Jacksonville Suns about a year or so ago:

But last season, he made it up to AAA New Orleans, where he is still playing.  So, in some games both last year and this year, the name on the front of his jersey is the same as the one on the back:

They even had a bobblehead giveaway of this last year:

It is what it is.

For about 2 minutes Kevin Love and Rudy Gay were teammates in 2008 before Love was traded to Minnesota, erasing one of the most potentially progressive teammate tandems ever. Gay Love.

 

Think how much further we would be as a society if they remained teammates?

Robbie West played for the West Coast Eagles in the AFL between 1991 and 1993:

West also played for West Perth in the WAFL - has there been any other footballer who has played for two different teams that share his surname?

I don't know about that; but this reminds me of Jerry West playing for the West in any number of NBA All-Star Games, most especially the one hosted by the Lakers.
