bbtds Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Between Lucious and Rusty Kuntz, I really can't wait to see what Jimbo does with this list. I met a guy named Lucious Booty once. Of course he pronounced it LOOshus for obvious reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonwich Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 I met a guy named Lucious Booty once. Of course he pronounced it LOOshus for obvious reasons. I suppose we could also throw in any coach who was a real Homer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwyjibo Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 As a soccer fan I am always amazed how many times announcers and coaches say "handling Kaka" (which is only Ricardo Izecson's nickname). Rafa Benitez once said there are "two ways of handling Kaka". Only two, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonwich Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 I generally chafe whenever hockey announcers say the name of Roman Polak, except in the rare event when they say, "Polak scores!" Then I feel lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
