WJMorris3 Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 COLUMBUS, OH - An Ohio State fan believed the last names of two Buckeyes football coaches would make the perfect first and middle names for his unborn child.His wife wasn't so sure.But Brent Huffines' choice won out. The couple named their newborn son Tressel Hayes."Tressel Hayes Huffines - sounds as sweet as an OSU victory over Michigan," Brent Huffines, 27, said Sunday while cradling the 3-day-old boy in the neonatal intensive care unit at Ohio State University Medical Center.Wanting to honor Woody Hayes and Jim Tressel, Huffines suggested the name to his wife, Kattie, before they learned she was having a boy."I laughed. I thought he was joking," said Kattie Huffines, 21. "I was shocked to learn he was serious."At least six Ohio parents have named a child Tressel since 2003, birth records show.Tressel Hayes Huffines was born a month premature, weighing 5 pounds, 14 ounces. He will remain in the hospital for at least a few days and possibly a few weeks."If nothing else, it assures the Buckeye tradition stays in the family," the boy's father said of his son's name. "Can you imagine someone named Tressel Hayes going to Michigan for college?"Just teach the kid to play sousaphone when he grows up and they'll be all set.

TBGKon Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 I can remember hearing that some Red Wing fans in Detroit named their son Joseph Louis, and their last name just happened to be Arena (Joe Louis Arena) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred T. Jane Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Will he get beaten up repeatedly by a kid named Billy Urban? [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

EatSleepJeep Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Lucia Woog just doesn't have a good ring to it. Nor does Mason Wacker or Tubby Haskins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
