Seeing Double

If you didn’t know, already I enjoy calling people nicknames. I believe the person who invented the concept of names is probably the coolest person in the world, besides Will Smith and select others. Of course the person who created names could be a real douche bag so I will leave that up in the air. Anyway one of my favorite things is when two unrelated people look a like and a nickname is formed. For example: in high school I had a teacher that looked like Ursula from The Little Mermaid, given the fact that she wasn’t that nice… she was dubbed Ursula (Nickname complete). So I will cross paths with a few look-a-likes, and of course I will leave some out. There are some nice ones: Red Sox Closer Jonathan Paplebon looks like Incrediboy, Adam Dunn looks like Will Ferel and Tim Meadows and Don Cheadle could be brothers --- but lets make it clear that only one would be able to properly buy someone a fish sandwich and only one could rep the name Ice Tray. On a personal note: Chris Cross Jesus Shuttlesworth Steverson I still think you look like Chris Duhon and Tony Battie. And Glen – you look like Ryan Seacreast and Daniel Craig.

To start it off


TK Express confidant: The Salo V. Former MLB Player John Mabry.
Father's Name: Jake Masters
Abilities: The occasional home run Jack


Rundown: Although they are both 6’4” and have that goofy smile they are not the same. One is an aspiring businessman one is an ex baseball role player. Given my knowledge of Mabry’s .230 something career batting average I would put my faith in The Salo for a sweet homerun jack. Mabry once hit for the cycle – The Salo cycles through numbers with ease in his accounting classes.

NBA benchwarmer: Oleksiy Pecherov V. Devious Baby: Stewie Griffin


Rundown: Its funny because they artists of Family Guy drew Stewie as a caricature – people aren’t supposed to look like this. But the bulging eyes and wide football shaped head are clearly apparent in Pecherov. If you have heard of Oleksiy its because of either 2 reasons. 1) You are a crazy basketball fanatic, and I mean crazy. Or 2) you are a DC native/ Turtle Fan … this means you Kyle Gampel.
Looks are similar… sure, but the truth is Stewie has more success, his diabolical schemes and comedy overpower Percherov’s lackluster play and destruction of any hope of being a successful 1st round pick for the Washington Wizards.

Wizards Young Gun: JaVale McGee V. Girl Magnet, domestic violence starter Girl Magnet: Chris Brown


Rundown: When the NBA draft happened last year I was really confused when I saw this picture of another Wizard’s 1st round pick. I really thought Chris Brown was drafted. I mean I’ve seen him play and he isn’t that good at all. Soon I realized the dude in the basketball uniform was 7 footer JaVale McGee. So one makes music and hits girls and gets away with it… the other plays basketball and joins the hopes of being the Big man Washington needs. I still think it would be a good idea to make shirts that say “ You should have picked me over Chris Brown” a message to all those girls who floundered over there beloved dancing boy. The truth is I dance too, fairly well I might add, but I don’t know a single girl who would have picked a date with me over CB. But let’s face it JaVale can wear a copy of this shirt (if ever made)… Chris, on the other hand, can not.

Funny Man: Dave Chappelle V. NFL Running Back : Felix Jones

This is Felix Jones
Could This Be... Dave Jones?
This is Dave Chappelle


Rundown: What’s funnier? Dave Chappelle Stand up or thinking about Dave Chappelle when Felix Jones scores a touch down on your team. Chappelle is one of the funniest comedians ever in my opinion and I honestly think if he went to the gym he would actually become Felix Jones. This one is actually a Tri-fecta, the third being the “Beef on the Ground” guy from the budweiser commercial. I’ll post the link below if you must know. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63FmuKLCrQs&feature=related

R&B Singer: Lloyd V. Jovial Mascot: The Cleveland Indian

Will all the Cleveland Indians Report to the dance floor....
...Immegiately


Rundown: So its all in the smile true, but not any Jolly human being can be compared to this blatantly racist mascot. Lloyd not only has the smile but he has the chin and the nose to fit the part. Lloyd has some decent jams here and there and he is partly responsible for the word “immegiately” but I will always associate this guy with the baseball franchise. Sadly Lloyd was born in New Orleans not Cleveland so he isn’t the REAL Cleveland Indian .. that is still under investigation.
