You're telling me there've been three guys named "Klopp" in the majors, and NONE of them are related?!? Weird.

There's an old story on why Glenn Braggs was called "Mu Mu."

I guessd Rick Burleson would be "Cock-a-doodle-doo"
I did not guess who would be "Knock".

Father of a three-year-old here. For links to "Grum Grum," which is Mr. Brown's imitation of thunder, I'd like to suggest this player. You could also link to a well-known Pixar character.

Re #2, this makes that old picture of me on Glenn Braggs' lap when I was about 5 a lot more disturbing.

Excellent stuff, JA. I had to specially approve your comment...stuff with that many links automatically gets spammed by the blog software.

Wonderful Terrific Monds. That's actually the guy's name.
