There are simply certain names that match the profession to which they are attached. * And then, there are some names that absolutely don't. The rules of the game are simple: 1. Name 3 football players whose names echo the nature of the sport. 2. Name one whose name absolutely does not. I'll start. 1. Dick Butkis 2. Otis Sistrunk3. Mike Ditka 1. Equanimeous St. Brown (oh, my goodness...) Give us your own personal 3+1. *In the game of Baseball, there can be no better "match name" than Raleigh Fingers. Fight me.

I can't believe Dick Shiner of the 1960s Steelers & Browns for a bit, hasn't been mentioned yet.
