not all athletes have great careers but
some leave a lasting impression all the
same upper pools has died
Reggie Jackson with three home runs
against the Rangers welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top ten
unfortunate names in sports kick off
from almost no angle put an arrow and
just can’t get his body up and over that
right leg for this list we’re looking at
names from the sports world that are
just downright troubling either for
their inherent silliness or the obvious
mental images they inspire
number ten jumbo Cummings now jumbo
Cummings has come into the ring entering
the ring at 29 years of age left this
bruiser with a fairly short career in
boxing record of 15 six and one comments
can hit but there’s a solid excuse for
Floyd Cummings late-blooming namely the
12 years he spent in the slammer for
murder
while jumbo is known as the final
opponent of the legendary Joe Frazier
he’s also best known for his giggle
inducing sexually provocative name just
look at the shoulders on this Bank
Cummings you can see why they call him
jumbo Cummings it’s a one-two punch that
could either make for the best or worst
stay in prison ever but it’s a handle to
take seriously elsewhere given that the
explosive athlete was released from
prison again in 2016 jumbo Cummings
likely isn’t a trending jailhouse topic
anymore that took him on the side of the
chin I think
coming to dawn number nine cacao team
he’ll shoot this footballer makes it his
duty to cling on Duke it out audit his
assets and build a log cabin with the
best of them known to his family as
Ricardo is xn dos Santos Lai Chi this
former AC Milan sensations unfortunate
nickname emerged when his little brother
had struggles pronouncing his name
settling on Kaka instead whether he’s
feeding the fish filling the peanut
butter jar updating the captain’s log or
just doing some paperwork
this Orlando city attacking midfielder
never fails to get crowd screaming for
Kaka
during his spectacular and sometimes
messy career Kaka always makes the
delivery and never flushes away a good
scoring opportunity on the pitch
number eight chubby take up truly
to go I got thing out a bit
earlier a nigga born with the much less
phallic moniker John Arthur this
former basketball player may have had a
short career but sporting history will
never forget the name Chevy a
one-time Washington bullet is both
the uncle of NBA legend Kobe Bryant and
father to 2016 Venezuelan National
Olympic team member John Cox luxury
disability the T USA is John Kosta
knocks down a three-pointer perhaps this
explains why Marv Albert was so keen on
talking about chubby over and over
and over sure chubby maybe didn’t have
the most prolific career but he’s
certainly more memorable than other pro
athletes from his era such as jack glass
scott tan or even Pete Lacock
option number 7 Dick Butkus dick made
big things happen when he hit people I
mean that’s the one thing that he could
do to change the game even if you’re
vaguely familiar with NFL legends you
know that everybody loves them some Dick
Butkus
after all the six-foot-three
hall-of-famer famously laid down some
heavy hits over his nine years and
quarterbacks lived in fear of dick
coming down on them Dick Butkus played
football with a religious fervor with an
unrelenting obsession not only to excel
but to dominate and
even so it’s hard to imagine the trash
talk that must have happened on the
field as opponents likely didn’t call
but cos Richard but as he was once
declared the most feared man in the game
you can well imagine who but kissed who
and one of the referees said to him all
right but just you got to tuck that
you got to tuck that forearm pad in and
mr. buck just said you want to check my
jockstrap to say what you will about the
man’s name but you can’t deny dicks pure
grace under pressure I want to just let
them know that they’ve been hit and when
they get up they don’t have to look to
see who is it then hit him number six
Albert Pujols in the field at pool just
give it Saint Louis away no matter what
this MLB first baseman accomplishes in
his career people will always giggle at
the sound of his last name it’s no
secret that pitchers avoid poo holes at
all costs as anybody knows that he’s
capable of blasting one out of the park
that ball is absolutely
fools fans never failed to seek out a
poo holes offering either just waiting
to get their hands all over it
Albert Poulos ladies gentlemen
enthusiastic baseball fans come in
droves to see poo holes and sometimes
the experience can be disappointing then
again one simply cannot expect him to
drop a couple bombs each and every game
number five
Harry Cologne and the secondary Hurst
loop at : and Fred Marion the first of a
few names on this list that aren’t
pronounced the way they’re spelled or
hairy : as you’d expect is such a vivid
and unfortunate name it’s more than fair
to question the events surrounding this
NFL players birth the name Frank surely
woulda suited him just fine or perhaps
anything that doesn’t remind one of
furry arses my colon is plain as a
whistle the name is so aggressive that
Harry Cologne undoubtedly found a way to
deal with the jokes at a young age or at
least we hope he did it’s really
disgusting but at least I got to see my
colon on TV perhaps it doesn’t come as a
surprise either to learn that Harry
cologne played defensive back gravely
protecting his territory and ready to
mash it up with anybody trying to pull a
fast one Oh
first question : number four steve
sharts excuse me did you just shark all
across the world baseball players aspire
to play in the majors Ricky Vaughn the
kid they call Wild Thing one out away
from his first major league victory but
in the case of Steve sharts a fresh
opportunity never came his way
he actually had a clean pitching record
at triple-a scranton/wilkes-barre in
1990 yet there were clearly some issues
for MLB teams perhaps that his name was
Steve shorts given that he was drafted
by the Philadelphia Phillies in 1985 and
has some solid stats one has to wonder
why a major league manager never decided
to see sharks up close and personal alas
baseball fans can only theorize about
the Curious Case of Steve sharks miss me
I put it I don’t think it was just a
poopoo
i sharted number three lucious Pusey
what was his name lucious by his parents
man I was a lucious Pusey his parents
should be his parents should be jail
with one of the more x-rated names in
college football history
this man was probably never destined to
play in the NFL for example imagine all
the dirty minded NFL players that would
have been lined up against or alongside
lucious Pusey
or as they probably pronounced it
lucious the man played as
linebacker for the Eastern Illinois
Panthers and judging by the official
photo it seems that someone hollered
smile lucious poussey right before it
was taken it’s not unreasonable to
question the exact naming process for
this man but at least we can all agree
that lucious Pusey who petitioned to
change his name to be much less
unfortunate lucious Seymour is less
offensive than something like misty
Hyman which is also quite evocative I
had dreamt of that moment since I was
five years old and I really couldn’t
believe it when it actually happened
number two Dick Trickle hi I’m Dick
Trickle
you want to win $100,000 internet buzz
when with the winter sweepstakes over
the years the sporting world has seen
athletes with names like dick Pole dick
shiner and even dick paradise but none
of them compares to mr. Dick Trickle
the name Dick Trickle could be funny it
made him famous NASCAR is 1989 Rookie of
the Year refused to go by his given name
Richard as a result his racing career
was entertaining on many levels
Oh Dick Trickle who is having a
cigarette you know he has a cigarette
lighter in the car he just over East
forfeit trickle was actually one of the
most successful short track drivers of
all time and if social media had been a
thing in his heyday hashtag Dick Trickle
would have been a trending hashtag every
Sunday that’s a name that was heard
around the world there have been many
more successful NASCAR drivers but
there’s only been one Dick Trickle
that’s a good long time coming I knew I
would one kill my fans my family and I
need to win one for Dick Trickle
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions your
Bud Light player of the game rod tugged
at his first shutout as a Columbus Blue
Jackets that’s really you know
challenging your team so
[Music]
number one rusty coots and that’s line
foul and rusty Kuntz washing us the
helmet caught it and then had some
quality time with the fans down there we
know what you’re thinking when you look
at that name on paper and we hate to
disappoint you but it’s actually not
pronounced fortunately for him anyway
for a guy with the first name Russell it
makes perfect sense that he would have
earned the nickname rusty and given that
rusty Kuntz was born in 1950s America
maybe everybody just didn’t get the joke
we are happy down in the dugout to be
visiting with Royals first base coach
the skinnier rusty Kuntz that’s what
happens after you’re sick for a long
time that being said one can’t blame him
for sticking with his sexually
suggestive name hell
it’s not even pronounced the way you
think it is but one can’t blame others
for laughing at it either oh you ready
yeah oh you know rusty Kuntz yes in fact
rusty Kuntz is the center of perhaps the
most provocative image in baseball
history and the classic Konerko gets
Koons photograph would never have been
taken if he’d been born with any other
name this never gets okay never gets old
do you agree with our list which name do
you find to be the most unfortunate
Cummins knows what I asked it or not for
more sporty top 10s published every day
