Great names . . . no game

[TruColor]

Basketball related, but my two favorite names of all time were two brothers from the Bronx:

Scientific Mapp and...
Majestic Mapp.

(I kid you not.)

 

[JeffGollin]

Heres one- DT Bonnie Sloan was drafted by the Cardinals in 75. What milestone did me do for the NFL and for Handicaped persons? You have to be tough to be named Bonnie for a guy.

You might argue that Bonnie actually had an advantage over other NFL linemen. He was deaf and couldn't be pulled off-sides by a hard count.
