Poor Kid

October 7th, 2006 by Ian · 5 Comments ·

Here’s an idea for parents when it comes to naming your child. Don’t be like this idiot and name your kid ESPN (pronounced Espen). According to the article, it seems these people were not the first person to do this but rather the fourth.

I have to ask, were his parents on crack or smoking some reefer when they decided this. Didn’t the mother have a say in naming her child even though she promised her husband. The kid’s first and middle name are ESPN Montana. To me it sounds like they named their rugrat after the local ESPN Montana radio station.

I can see it now, this kid will be on the playground getting picked on. All they had to do is switch it around at least and call their son, Montana ESPN. This way the poor kid has a somewhat normal first name. No matter how big of a sports fan you are, theres a reason why people have middle names. Feel free to use them that way and let the poor kid decide what he wants to be called.

    Obviously it was the boy’s father who picked this name. See how men don’t think sometimes. The boy’s mother is an idiot for letting the man name this poor child. Goddamn men!

    Ok it has been decided..If I get married and have kids, my daughters name or middle name is going to be NESN. And if my future wife happens to be a Yankees fan, we can name her NESN YES Bethune.
