Scientific Mapp

Majestic Mapp (Scientific's brother)

A friend and I had a college hoops all-name team in the mid 1990s. Scientific Mapp was on there along with:

H Waldman ("H" was his first name)

Duany Duany

Scoonie Penn

Bubakar Aw

A few others I cannot remember.

I too remember seeing God, and he was a Friar

yep God Shamgod...former Providence Friar. BTW, wouldn't God being a Friar be a serious demotion? :D

I would go with Dick Hunt (not that there's anything wrong with that). Yes, that's a real player from AGES ago.

Dr. Kelso: My son is a big baseball fan. Not so much playing it, but more the designing and sewing of uniforms.

Tyler: That's neat.

Dr. Kelso: No, it's not.

I always liked Bennie Blades and James Jett for some reason, assonance I suppose

PLUS:

We've gone into the third page without a mention of Sonny Sixkiller or Major Applewhite, shame on you all. :P

But my favorite is one who came from one of the high schools on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation. Her name: Carmelita Bear Ribs. It almost sounds like something you'd order in a restaurant that serves wild game.

sounds like something you could get at Smokey's or something....

mmmmm, carmelita bear ribs...

My personal favourite sports name has gotta be Ken Klee.

Two monosyllabic names. It almost sounds Pokemon-ish.

KLEE EVOLVED INTO...KENKLEE!!!

Plus, I kinda dig names that require extra stitching on jerseys to fit entire names in. Like Catalanotto, Schoeneweiss (pronounced SHOW-en-wise), and Ponikarovsky.

Super Wario Comix!

Iron Crossover IX Contender (Tied for 6th)

Iron Crossover Halloween Contender (Tied for Bronze)
