Chipper Jones has named his son after Shea Stadium:
“I love playing there,” Jones said. “Check the numbers.”
Jones has hit 17 home runs at Shea, his highest total at a visiting park, and his first major league homer came there on May 9, 1995. He is a lifetime .314 hitter at Shea.”
(Repeated word removed in the above quote.)
This reminds me of a joke from Eric Idle’s excellent satire of Beatles documentries, All You Need is Cash.
On their second visit to the States in early 1965 they played the world’s first outdoor rock and roll concert at Che Stadium (named after the Cuban Guerilla leader Che Stadium).
…because of your last name, it took me awhile to get that.
I think he outta name his next kid “first round exit”. Then the next kid’s name should be “choke” in honor to his father’s “wonderful” playoff career. That’s if the Lord allows idiot rednecks to continue to procreate. Then he allowed Chip to spawn 3 future wife beaters in training. I think the state should prohibit a child to be named after a garbage dump in Queens.
