Wasnt there a Thomas Beer a few years ago? I also like the name Ted Bruski. I hate the pats but who can argue with a last name like brewski?

What about Dick "Night Train" Lane.

How about a old NHL'er with a great name: Dit Clapper, a HOF'er who played for the Bruins. Sounds like something you would catch from a dolphins cheerleader.

Got any other names you think are cool?

 

I liked these names when I was a kid:

 

Boobie Clark - Bengals DB ('70s)

 

Spider Lockhart - Giants S ('70s)

 

Walker Gillette - Giants WR ('70s - University of Richmond)

 

Spike Jones - Bills P ('70s)

The coolest football name was given to OJ's offensive line - The Electric Company, 'cuz they turned on the Juice!

 

Just because OJ turned into a murderer later in life shouldn't take away from how cool that name was...

Sam Bam Cunningham

Freeman McNeil

Mercury Morris

Lydell Mitchell

Emerson Boozer

Bills had this guy in the mid 70's named Halvor Hagen. He was a reserve lineman, who, I think, played both ways. (Don't go there! :w00t: ) Great name. Sounds like a Norwegian pro wrestler.

 

Also liked this Saints WR from the same era: Jubilee Dunbar.

a few years ago, Nebraska had a RB named Thunder Collins. I tend to think you are automatically cool if you are given that name at birth.

 

EDITED

 

just did a search on him. maybe he ain't so cool.

 

apparently had some run in with the law for an assault and also had some NCAA violations. OOPS
