Wow, okay, alrighty, I don't know about, we can't get that far. Let's have our 7-at-7, so today, thanks to Matabo celebrating 100 years of German innovation. The best names in sport, we threw this around very late last night. And we were going to do footy names that we loved and love calling. A little bit quirky, we had nicknames, we've just gone now for sporting names. And we've done a fair bit of Google, we must admit, and a lot of our listeners have already done that. Scotty's going down one path which I'd like to clear my hand right now, that I would like to wipe my hands off said Scott's list. Yeah. And I'd like to go with my list, which has been a little bit more measured and a little bit more listenable. [LAUGHTER] I told you. It was very hard to be mature and grown up about this. It's the 4th of July today. Yeah, it's the Independence Day, so I'm going out independently from you and the station's thoughts. Are you confident? Very, very stupid indeed. Thank you. Are you confident that you will? These are real people. Be here on Monday. Yeah, these are real people. Yeah, these are real people. And they've all been excellent at their chosen sport. John says it was nice listening to your show. Fellows all the best at your future endeavors. Yeah, not me. Not me, mate. I'm going. Yeah. Do you want to go first? No! You go first, Scott. Well, John, first of all, you've sent through a couple that are already on my list. So, you know, you'll go down the same track as me. Are you comfortable? I'm being honest with you, because if we walk out of here and go, I shouldn't have done that. Yeah. I want you to have a chance. These are real people. These are their names. Like you asked for cooler sporting names and funny ones. And I think I've got a really strong list of seven funny ones. It's like really jolly stuff, but I don't mind it. Number seven coming in at number seven is Argentinian goalkeeper Fabian ass man. He's number seven. Do you try to keep going? Number six. Now, there's nothing wrong with this. I just like this bloke's name. He played footy. He played for Geelong. His name was Austin McCrabber. I just always say every time he heard his name, I just liked it. So, that's okay. That's okay. That's okay. That one. That's his real name. They're real people. Number five is ice hockey gold tender played for the Oilers and Marty Duxem. And I'm penguins amongst a few others. His name is Ron Tugnut. So, Ron Tugnut comes in at number five. Number four, just missed him at Esonon. He played here at Perth and then went to Esonon for a season. I think he's Willie Dick. Always made me laugh. Good player, Willie Dick. Number three, sensational swimmer and Misty Hyman. She was world champion. He's so serious. Number two, I just got a real chuckle out of. I'm not really across his work. Don't follow the sport religiously. He's a champion lacrosse player in the States. His name is Will Barrow. See, that's okay. That's his. His name is Will Barrow. I mean, that's just parenting, to be perfectly honest with you. And number one, this play was never, ever going to do anything other than drive NASCAR. Dick Trickle. He ain't laughed out there. So, we're going to go for him. Number seven, Fabian Asman. Austin McRabb at six, Rontagna at five. That's a good Willie Dick at four, Misty Hyman at three. Two is Will Barrow. That's not even a nick. That's his name, Will Barrow. And number one is Dick Trickle. Beat that list, man. I promise you I won't be able to beat it. I won't be able to beat it. And, uh... I sat for the third time. We're done. Alrighty. I've got Bill, sorry, Fabian Asman probably deserves to be Ireland. Where's Rusty Kunz? See? He was a champion general manager of baseball. And, uh, even I decided to stay away from that one. Ah, just in case he came out wrong. Why should you just sit there? Right, yeah. I've got the minor, a very more diplomatic, but good list. Really good list. A little bit more. A little bit more. My name is a current tie golfer who plays on the European to a Curidesh Afibarnrat. Oh, yeah, yeah. I love the Barnrat. Yeah.

Uh, Mookie Blalock. There's a name always. Mookie. Mookie Blalock. 13 years in the NBA. And one, I know we've got World Met or World Peace and all that, but this guy's name. For 13 years in the NBA, his real name was Lloyd Bernard Free, and he changed his name to World B Free. Oh, WB Free. Yeah. There you go. That's mindless, but you're, yeah. Um...

And one of the good ones too, one of the great names in sport, and here in Australia, too, is Fuy Fuy Muy Muy. Yes. That's a great name. Yes. Yeah. All that. Yeah. Go through your list again, guys.
