Top 10 Worst Names in Sports

10. Michael Jackson WR Cleveland Browns/Baltimore Ravens- This one is pretty obvious, even though he had less than stellar career, no matter how big he got he would never pass his more famous namesake, very similar to michael bolton in Office Space. This guy probably heard so many jokes during his little NFL career. This guy played 8 years in the NFL after being drafted in '91.



9. Bimbo Coles PG bunch of teams including Celtics - real name being Vernell Eufaye ("Bimbo") Coles, now i can see why he went with bimbo, with that original name you could have gone with moron coles, faggy coles, dipshit coles even hot coles, and it still would have been a lot better, but why not go with eric or something like that why bimbo. Interesting fact he was drafted in the MLB draft







8. Coco Crisp CF Cleveland/Boston/ KC- i think he name is covelli but still why in the world subject yourself to all the torments of coco crisp. i remember being pumped when the Sox got him, then again i remember calling my dad all excited when they got matt clement so what do i know.


7. Chris Fuamatu-Ma'afala RB Pittsburgh/Jacksonville- Probably one of the funniest names to say, he had the body of Jerome Bettis with the face and hair of Troy Polamalu


6. Kimo K. von Oelhoffen DL Steelers and Jets- He is going to be most famous for being the guy that injured Carson Palmer's Knee.

5. Natrone Means- Very hyped running back coming out of college and had a terrible career, his name sounds like he belongs as a character in the Transformers Movies. What were his parents thinking, what the hell does natrone mean.


4. Dikembe Mutumbo - i'm a little hesitant to use him because he is foreign but when your real full name is Dikembe Mutombo Mpolondo Mukamba Jean-Jacques Wamutombo, you deserve to be on this list. Stuart Scott used to say his full name all the time, besides his lazy eye thats the only thing i like about him BOO YA.



3. Lynn Swan WR Pitt - Can a football player have a gayer name? He is a hall of famer on the field but how does this name strike fear in your heart.

2. Dick Butkus- What were his parents thinking, gotta give him credit for going by dick and not richard, you have to be tough as nails to have a name like that. he was one tough son of a bitch on the field.



1. Rusty Kuntz- Drafted in 1977 by the Chicago White Sox, do i really need to say more?




Notable Mentions - Ashly Leilei a close second to lynn swan for weakest name, Flozell Adams, Dino Raja, Jiri Welsh, Sabastian Telfair

I was hoping there was a famous person named richard brown or white, so they could go by dick, so in roll call they could have their teachers say " black dick? is there a black dick here??
