This thread has been a long time coming IMO. There are some colourful names and characters out there, past and present.

 

Perusing the injury report, I came across Storm Duck. A player uniquely qualified to survive hurricane season in South Florida.

Have fun!

If you read his WikiPage... He was named after "Storm Logan"... A character on the SoapOpera: The Bold and the Beautiful.

Billy "White Shoes" Johnson

William 'Earthquake' Enyart.  Once he left the Bills where he played fullback, he converted to defense, and played LB for the Oakland Raiders in 1971.  Tore his knee up, and never played professionally after that.  He was on Green Bay's practice squad in 1973
