No Johnny Dickshot 😔
I went to school with a Toy Glasscock.
At my high school there was a star football player before my time named Harry Anus. He had a plaque in the hallway
My father n law, his legal name is Dickie Dee Suiter. He retired from the Navy. I asked him what they called him in the Navy, he said, "Suit" or Suiter. If anyone called him anything other, he'd pound them. After retirement he went to Teachers college. Everyone loved Mr Suiter. Hubby wanted us to name our son after him. So our son's middle name is Suiter.
My last name is pronounced failin and my middle name is Richard so if I went by middle name Dick Failin My wife wanted our son to be a junior. Even before Crime in Sports I didn’t think highly enough of myself to junior my son and I also didn’t want him to possibly catch the nickname.
Named my daughter Canvas because her father was an artist and she was his first original Canvas. ( young and blindly in love) I i insisted on Alexandria has a middle name so she could go by Alex or any combination of that name. She has always gone by Canvas and you don't want to be the person to make fun of her... Made her stronger than f
James: "He couldn't play for the next two years due to illness" Jimmie: "What'd he have? Mono?...... AIDS?.... I don't know why that fucking killed me 🤣
It took 3 months of practice and memorization to finally*almost* be able to do Rocky Road to Dublin 😄
There's former Canadian Football League player Pat Woodcock.
I went to high school with a kid named Fabian Assmann and totally forgot until you said the name again 😂💀 It IS pronounced AHZ mahn but cmon
Jimmie crashing out over a 9/8 time signature made my day today
My uncle's name is Richard Clogg, and he goes by Dick.
Pete LaCock - KC Royals
You forgot Dick Trickle!
The Key & Peele bit about athlete names is amazing too
Years ago when I deal cards we had a Vietnamese guy who played all of the time and his name was Porn Pen. He always dressed like a 70’s pimp. At that same casino there was another guy named Jackson Meihoff and his brother always had him paged as Jack Meihoff. Was hilarious every day. I finally met the guy and asked for his ID as proof just cuz I had to know
Well, I now see Guido from Cars a little differently…
“What’s your name Mr. head and tell me it isn’t Dick. “ Sorry Adam Sandler reference.
My father was NYPD in the 70s. He arrested a man named “Joe Smith”When asked his full name, he responded “Inthekitchen Joe Smith” Before my father could even ask the man said “We were all born at home. We get named where it happens.” 😂😂😂😂 My dad had that guys mugshot pic on our fridge forEVER😂😂😂
I had a allergy doctor named Harry Katz. I always thought it was funny because so many people are allergic to cats.
This is honestly a contender for the fucking funniest Patreon episode. The boys have put out. I am in stitches hearing about jukebox time bomb
I work for a family owned company with the last name guido. I have shirts, hats and even a yeti cup that just says guido on it
He missed an opportunity to call himself, Will Pound.
We have some Alexanders and Hamiltons in my family tree in the 1700s 😂 And my friends were definitely talking about sharts in the 90s.
Lmfao my best friend from high school’s name was Guido. He was profoundly Italian.
My favorite as a soccer fan is Nicky Butt.
How did Wonderful get his helmet on, legitimately?
I had a client a while back named Michael Hunt. And he made sure you called him that quite forcefully. Michael and only Michael. One day he didn't like my answer to whether we could squeeze him in for an emergency farm call and he called me miss. I sternly replied "Actually, Mike, it's doctor." 😈
I know a guy named Mike Hunt too! lol
My father's name is Richard. His family call him Rick. Friends call him Dick, which means my father had to introduce himself using that name. Why did he do that, you might ask? Because when he was a child my grandparents told him not to go by the name Dick because it's "so common." They were snobs in case you couldn't tell. Obviously, Dad had to use the name they hated. We're rebels 😂
I know Quido Merkins He was Bum Philips favorite player. He is a resident of Huntsville Texas, where he attended Sam Houston State University. He is a super nice guy!
So, clearly no one is a fan of Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine. There's your Dick Cheese, and well worth a listen.
I went to university with a Richard Head. I didn't realise until almost my final year when I heard a couple of first years laughing when they saw my friend's name on our year photo that it might be funny. Also, I wonder if Guido Merkin is meant to be pronounced gee-do cause Guy Fawkes' went by Guido Fawkes when he was fighting in the Spanish Netherlands and that's how it was pronounced.

I knew a Ben Dover
I went to school with a kid, Frank N. Stine. I think his parents hated him. Also knew 2 brothers with nicknames Itchy and Scratchy. Last name? Peters. And finally 3 brothers with nicknames Crow, Eagle and Cheese. I used to party with the third brother and if we were leaving a bar he'd holler "Don't forget the cheese!" I'm from a very small town in case you were wondering lol
I’m happy to say I can sing along to Rocky Road to Dublin Jimmie! lol. Literally my favorite Irish folk song
There was a guy a year ahead of me in hs named Patrick Stoner. His mom was 52 when he was born and she was the oldest woman in our area to have a baby.
I worked at a medical clinic and we had patients named Major League and Major League Jr. 🤦🏼♀️
Assmann always has your 6!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Went to high school with Ben Gay.
Can't believe they missed my boy Johnny Dickshot
My dad went to high school with a guy named Richard Wooden - better known as Dick Wooden! They remained friends for decades. I always knew him as “Uncle Woody” growing up!
I’m that note though my gynecologist office is on Beavercreek Road lol
I had a friend in grade school, and his name was Dick cramp and my mom’s gynecologist is Dick Croak
My ex husband's urologist was named Dr. Hole. There's an anesthesiologist in my area named Dr. Slaughter
There's a sprinter named Gout Gout
“What illness takes you out for two years?” “AIDS?” Jimmie makes me laugh so god damn hard 😭😭😭😭
Playing a historical game on OOTP Baseball and olde tymey baseball is full of Dicks. My favorite being 1880s player Dick Burns. The fictional world I made in that game also spit out gems like catcher Peter Wacker and a Chinese league player named Hang Dong.
Was expecting to hear Gout Gout’s name
Not sport related but Letterman had a guy on whose name was Dick Assman!
110 yards is basically 100 meters…. (100.5)
I had an old boss named Dick Lipps
Shart has absolutely been around longer than 1998. It had to have been. I definitely heard it as a kid.
My mom used to work with a guy named Dick Petite. Every time he'd call in he would say who he is Bond style. "It's Petite. Dick Petite." My mom and I still giggle about that.
Omg Dong Dong me and my husband was watching one of those Olympics he was in and we lost our shit when he was announced. We looked at each other and were like we are so juvenile.
The assistant principal at my high school was Dick Lord. 😂
I don’t see how you can get anything done with that name around a bunch of teenagers 🤣🤣🤣
Rusty Kuntz. Detroit Tigers baby. Wooooooooooooooooo
1206 est Dick Trickle baby. Wooooooooooooooooo
When you're talking about Guido and then Allen Iverson mom's heart rate increased with Allen's name!
Just started at 1030 est. And Dick Trickle better be in here.
Guido Merkens. https://www.si.com/nfl/saints/onsi/news/30-plus-years-later-the-unforgettable-legend-of-guido-lives-on-for-the-new-orleans-saints
My abnormal psych professor was Dick Shugar
Fun fact for Jimmie: Dick Butkus was also drafted by the Denver Broncos in the 1965 AFL Draft, but the Broncos knew that no way in hell Butkus was going to pla6 for them.
Dictionary.com tracks “shart” back to 2001 and credits Along Came Polly with popularizing the term in 2003.
I work with a guy named Long Dang
Why are you all talking about Dick Trickle? While it may not leave you shivering cold and covered in lesions it's a serious condition! Thanks lads for being the best $5 out there. And while ads don't particularly annoy me, ad-free is a nice bow on my investment.
Fort Wayne’s previous Mayer was named Harry Baals. Check it out
If Jimmy is looking for some great Irish folk bads he should try The Dubliners or the Wolfe Tones. And the reason Irish people know the words to our songs verbatum is traditionally at family gatherings it was common for musicians to play the songs for a sing song so it is a community thing rather than a drinking thing.
Had an Uncle Dick, Uncle Butch, and Uncle Nookie. Yes. They let us children call him Uncle Nookie.
Relatable. Got an Aunt Balley (ball-ee), an Uncle Big Shot, and an Aunt Popeye. My mom is Aunt Shorty. lol
Jimmie I feel ya on the irish songs. Im not entirely sure why but I know all the words to bog down in the valley 😂
I choked on my latte when James said, "you're gonna... find not what you wanna find, I think, lookin' up 'dick funk' " 😅
I’m starting a cover band called “jukebox time bomb”
What is the YouTube channel with the old NFL games?!
If you find out, let me know! I’d love to watch the old NFL games
I couldn't tell you The number of times growing up that another kid tasted my forehead for calling me Assman
“Oops, All Jizz Balls” took me completely out 😂😂😂😂😂💀
My favorite thing lately is Jimmie Googiling these terrible things so that the rest of us dont have to have it in our browser history!
How do you miss NASCAR legend Dick Trickle? Edit- saw the comments. Would have expected him with the other Dick's.
Oh and remember Dick Teal - the therapist in one of your episodes?? He was my therapist for a while also!!! 😆
With someone born with the name Honey Graham, I appreciate this episode 🤣
When I used to watch SportsCenter back in high school and there was a race, they’d tell you the top few finishers followed by wherever Dick Trickle finished. Tremendous stuff.
What's funnier? Dick Pound for the Prosecution or Dick Pound for the Defense?
Not an athlete but my dad was called Dick Proud
1940s Germany called, dont bet on anyone named Hitler
Richard Cheese is an artist that redoes popular songs as house music covers. They're hilarious
Thank you! Every time they said Dick Cheese he is all I could think about lol
Just started.. There will obviously be Dick Trickle of NASCAR…
Just started but hoping Jizz Horncamp gets a mention
There are currently two MLB pitchers, one, Richard Lovelady and the second, Richard Fitts…Dick Lovelady and Dick Fitts. Literally the ONLY first name you shouldn’t name your kid of you have those last names lol
Ugh dick fold 😫
My favorite bonus for sure
The cover graphic for Dick Pound's book really leans in to the name.
That shit had me fucking cackling. Oh my fucking God.
Dick Pound might not’ve been a founding father but surely he was a pounding father
Rusty Kuntz better be in this.
