What’s in a Name, Anyway?
April 24th, 2009 by HeywoodIf you’re wondering, just ask the Washington Nationals Natinals. That’s right– Natinals. Last Friday, 2 of the Nationals’ biggest stars, Adam Dunn and Ryan Zimmerman were given (and played with) jerseys missing an “O”. Can anyone out there tell me how such a mistake gets made– I mean this is professional sports, people. And can’t you just go to the giftshop and buy these two guys a new jersey?
Other notable sports mispellings (unbelievably) have included the following:
The Torotno Blue Jays
The Cncinnati Reds
The West Virgina Men’s Basketball Team
Did someone say Whale’s Virgina??

At least some of these have to be Photoshopped.

I’d think so too but I screencapped all of the images from ESPN myself!
