    I am still pondering the thought of having a guy named Jimmy Garrapollo on this football team. (he is from E. Illinois, same as Tony Romo).

    OK what is the weirdest, funniest name of a football player that you can recall.

    And....yea, I gotcher Fair Hooker right here.

            A few I found in Bleacher Report:

            Guy Whimper

            Captain Munnerlyn

            Brad Lekkerkerker

            Anthony Midget

            Curry Burns

            CJ Ah You

            Kirby Dar Dar (no relation to Jar Jar Binks)

            Ben Gay

            The most appealing one: Lucious Pusey

            And, finally the ultimate: Dick Butkus

            But, if you tell him his name is funny you better be prepared to learn what it is like to kiss his butt up close and personal.

                    Marco...

                    I mean, Garoppollo is quite the qb. Canton Mike has been raving about him...

                    and I agree. It's been talked about now, that he is first round material, flat out.

                    Very interesting. Watkins with the first pick, Garoppolo with the second?

                      Garoppolo is slated to be about a 6th round pick by pretty much everyone?

                        DraftScout has him as 3rd rounder and rising... but they only consider Seniors at present.

                          LOL Lucious Pusey has to be the winner. How can you not give it to that? His mom had to be supremely confident in her kitty.

                              Former Browns QB Dick Shiner. Traded to Pittsburgh for Bill Nelsen. Boy did we sucker them on that deal.

                                  Well, it was done in like 1969, and as funny as it is the joke probably just lost its life after a few years. You see, right after that is when the Steelers began to get good, so maybe they had some dickshining going for them that made them play better.

                                    CBS also has Garoppolo as a third rounder... and they say he has amazing accuracy. They really seem to dig him. He certainly looks the part on tape. Senior Bowl will be huge for him.

                                    Hint on spelling: The only repeated letter is peepee (!).

                                    If the Browns can't get or don't want Carr, Hundley, or Manziel, I could get interested in Jimmy G. But I wouldn't risk waiting until round 3. You do that at guard, not quarterback.

                                      Quit mucking up the thread Shep! This is about football players with weird names, like Garrappolllo...Garapolo, Marcopolo. Pollos Hermanos, Garagiolopolo.

                                      By the way, Dick Shiner's stats with the Browns was 3 completions in 9 attempts for 34 yards no TDs and 1 Int.

                                        We traded a QB named Dick Shiner (who sucked) to Pittsburgh? Why is this not the butt of the best Pussburgh joke around?

                                        Well, it was done in like 1969, and as funny as it is the joke probably just lost its life after a few years. You see, right after that is when the Steelers began to get good, so maybe they had some dickshining going for them that made them play better.

                                        We need to revive the Dick Shiner jokes. Time for some brainstorming lol.

                                          Is it really any weirder than d'brickashaw Ferguson?

                                          Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...
