Can't Stop a Nosebleed!

I'm adding Bart Scott to my list of people with whom I never want to make eye contact lest they rip my head off of my body.

Mark, did you see someone ran with my Bart Scott/Ollie Williams comparison after the game?

There's some huge Mafia sting going down in NYC, and i found this top 10 list of real names/nicknames:

10. DENNIS DELUCIA, also known as "Fat Dennis," "Little Dennis" and "the Beard"

9. LUIGI MANOCCHIO, also known as "Baby Shacks," "The Old Man," and "the Professor"

8. ANTHONY DURSO, also known as "Baby Fat Larry" and "BFL"

7. GIUSEPPE DESTEFANO, also known as "Pooch"

6. JOHN AZZARELLI, also known as "Johnny Cash"

5. ANDREW RUSSO, also known as "Mush"

4. VINCENT FEBBRARO, also known as "Jimmy Gooch"

3. BENJAMIN CASTELLAZZO, also known as "Benji," "The Claw" and "the Fang"

2. ANTHONY LICATA, also known as "Cheeks," "Anthony Firehawk," "Anthony Nighthawk," "Nighthawk" and "Firehawk"

1. JOHN HARTMANN, also known as "Lumpy," "Fatty" and "Fats"

zman said...

I remember half of those nicknames from college.

Lumpy said...

wonder if every one asks john hartmann- "so- why do they call you lumpy?"

T.J. said...

You think Anthony visited Frank at Unit M?

T.J. said...

I'm pretty sure Greg will read this and spend this weekend going by Gregory Firehawk.

TR said...

What's a tumblr account?

Greg said...

Actually, I was going to use "Nick Nighthawk". But I could something Firehawky. How is there a guy named "John Hartmann" in the Mafia?

Greg, he's a legacy, like Flounder.

zman said...

Why is a guy named Anthony nicknamed Baby Fat Larry? Shouldn't he be Baby Fat Tony?

Lumpy said...

maybe there was already a tony when he joined the mob, and they dont allow duplicate names?

Greg said...

I really want Bart Scott's prediction for the game to be "pain". That would be fantastic.

Marls said...

He is just a little version of Fat Larry.

Kinda like Mafia Muppet Babies.

zman said...

Is Fat Larry anything like Gotta Get Up In That Ass Larry?

mayhugh said...

I kind of enjoy Bart Scott. He gives a pretty intelligent, matter-of-fact interview. I like how he can't stand still, and the fleeting expressions of annoyance that pass over his face during some of the questions.

zman said...

"I'm not sure I should even be allowed to talk to you."

Mark said...

I'm a little hurt that CAN'T WAIT wasn't one of the tags for this post. But I know TJ will remedy that. In fact, I CANT WAIT!

Mark said...

I'm going by Jimmy Gooch and "the beard" when I'm in Vegas in a couple weeks.

I'm so excited to hit Vegas with Nick Nighthawk. I...CAN'T WAIT!

Mark said...

And Zman's Curb references always get me.

T.J. said...

CAN'T WAIT!

Mark said...

I hope you guys are paying attention to Jason Whitlock absolutely killing Will Leitch on twitter right now.

Mark said...

Just watched the Bart Scott/Ollie Williams mashup. Greatest mashup ever?

Greatest mashup ever.

I'm gonna go watch it again...CAN'T WAIT!

Mark said...

Anybody who has followed my thoughts on Florida Football knows I'm not fond of Jersey's own Will Hill. Chronic underachiever that he is. However, after reading some of the highlights of his twitter feed, I'm willing to reconsider my level of hatred. Enjoy:

i've now been to events with ron jaworski and harold carmichael over the past three months. really hoping to see wilbert montgomery soon.

Mark said...

You'll get Herm Edwards.

This fact of the day from Jerry...

Mike Wilkinson from Wisconsin has been granted a Macedonian citizenship and is known as Majkl Vilkinson (Мајкл Вилкинсон in Cyrillic) and he also plays for the national basketball team.

The Onion can be hit or miss but this is awesome. Warning Baseball content.

goo.gl/FMLle

It has some foul language in there.

Mark said...

I finally decided on my new's year's resolution.

I'm going to find a small country I have a loose affiliation with and start playing for their national team.

CAN'T WAIT!

mayhugh said...

Or maybe even just START a national basketball team. Do the guys in Kyrgyz Republic have anything going?

Mark said...

I like the way you're thinking, Mayhugh.

zman said...

The Republic of Gheorghia?

Mark said...

Z- You pumped for the Dave Wannstedt era in Buffalo?

zman said...

He can't make the defense any worse. Gailey and Wannstedt were pretty good together in Dallas and in Miami to a lesser extent.

Mark said...

So you ARE pumped. Good. Buy a Camaro, grow out your mullet and stop shaving your upper lip.
