what, was chet mcdermontt not available?

holy **** we are terrible at the plate with runners on. we stranded 15 freaking runners. that is 17ing pathetic. we have some serious problems....maybe this is the infamous cohen turning point where our nuts finally drop and we wake up and realize our potential. damn, we were lucky tonight. the bears choked like a mo-fo....thats going to sting for a while. i would much rather be on the wrong end of a total route than the wrong end of a game choked away like that.

I don't think you're giving full stereotype-embracing credit to

the gem of a name that is Ole Miss reliever Preston Tarkington. Almost need an ascot on just to pronounce it.

Can you think of a better Ole Miss name than Sikes Orvis? Maybe Manning Archer or Vaughtly Manninghampton or some **** like that but Sikes Orvis is up there.

Peyton Attaway, Hawtin Buchanan, Preston Overbey, Holt Perdzock, Wyatt Short, etc.

There are a lot of stereotypical UM names on that team.

chester cobblepot is the only name i can think that better characterizes the bears and their inflated sense of self-worth, low-bred ilk that make up 90% of their fan base.

If you name your kid sikes.....just no

I mean, I hear the guy likes Lagavulin, which I respect. But Sikes....,???

 

[patdog]

Where do they even find guys with names like that? And who gives their child any of those names?

Preston Brown's parents?

Chester Cobblepot is the guy looking for the fortune of one-eyed Willie in the Goonies. Not sure what kind of connotation that name is supposed to carry or that you are reading into it.

Chester Copperpot

its a hybrid of chester copperpot (skeleton from the goonies) and oswald cobblepot (from batman returns...aka the penguin)
