Band of Brothers
A Dreamer...trying to find my way home for dinner
Had to laugh tonight as Mike Krukow was talking about players when they are on the road sometimes use a alias name so they are not bothered in the Hotel and they usually only tell the people the name they are using in case you need to get in touch with them.
Krukow tells the story of Jeff Kent and the alias he used when he was on the road. I laughed my ass off when he said...Kent liked to use the alias...Hank Withum. Good stuff from Kruk. I wonder if Kruk and Kuip had a alias name on the road. That would be a good story. Maybe a idea for them for a pre game show.
I am a baseball movie guy so all my alias names would be from baseball movies. Here are some of my favorites.
From Bull Durham
Crash Davis
Ebby Calvin "Nuke" LaLoosh Hey MEAT ! Awesome !
From The Natural
Roy Hobbs
Bump Bailey
The Bad News Bears (The Original) Remake sucked.
(Coach) Morris Buttermaker
Kelly Leak
Tanner Boyle
Major League
Ricky Vaughn (Wildthing)
Willie Mays Hayes
Pedro Cerrano
and who could forget the guy in the front row
Bob Uecker as the drunk announcer ....Harry Doyle
So I ask you this good baseball fans what is your road alias? Explain ? MEAT !!!
