most unfortunate name in sport

Blitzkrieger

We've all heard unfortunate names for sportsmen from a forward named Fowler to a midfielder named Butt who seems hilarious to americans. But these are only the tip of the iceberg, there's much worse out there.

So who exactly is the worst?

For a start I'd nominate last night's left back - Pisas (pronounced ****-ass by the commentators.

Dustaz

Gotta be either that German guy Kuntz or the Dutch guy Vollicks (or Vollyx, however it was spelt - George Hamilton had a field day with him).
Ever notice that there are certain people who are born to do a certain job?
Arsene Wenger found his true job a few years ago, and since Brazil recently fired their Manager, one Wanderley Luxemburgo, theres really only one place he can go

I recall an interview with Jimmy McGee where he was saying that there was a hurler in the 60's called Fu<kinger, 'and to my eternal delight he was all over the field'

Bob the Unlucky Octopus

The Croatian footballer "Asanovic"-...his name when said quickly in a tongue-twisting fashion sounds (a lot) like "a son-of-a-b!tch"....

Another favourite would have to be Shawn Pollock...the South African fast bowler...I have *no* idea why a single cricket commentator hasn't noticed the remarkable similarity between his name and...well...you get the idea...
