happy flair is the greatest. i have a draft coming up with a jerry garcia... it'll be tempting to draft him even though he's terrible. no power ever since he lost that middle finger.

i've had him for 8 seasons now, so it didn't really strike me as strange because I am used to it until I was going through my players names for this thread and realized how strange his name it really is

In one league I have a Miguel Tejeda and I just signed a Miguel Tejada. I wonder if they changed the name in the database to fit the real Miguel's real last name.
