Yankees' Pseudonyms

#1

Post by trashtalkr »

The Village Voice came across a list of the pseudonyms that the Yankees used in 2005 when staying in a hotel in Seattle.

Here's the list.

Pseudonym: Simon Phoenix
Real name: Mike Mussina

Pseudonym: Bruce Almighty
Real name: Don Mattingly

Pseudonym: Austin Powers
Real name: Ruben Sierra

Pseudonym: Johnny Drama
Real name: Derek Jeter

Pseudonym: Turd Ferguson
Real name: Jaret Wright

Pseudonym: Richard Long (very clever Bernie)
Real name: Bernie Williams

Pseudonym: Rickey Ricardo
Real name: Jorge Posada

Pseudonym: Joe Saturday
Real name: Hideki Matsui

Pseudonym: Harry Pelotas (yes, that's Harry Balls when translated)
Real name: Luis Sojo

Pseudonym: Sam Adams
Real name: Randy Johnson

Pseudonym: Eleven Fifty
Real name: Matt Lawton

A-Rod stayed at a different hotel so he didn't make the list. Damn shame.

"If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?"

What's a shame, is that A-Rod cannot hit the damn baseball on the road...
