"Oh-oh-mah-NAH-wah-NEW-ee...."

Tight end Ho also works out of the backfield . . .

[Not My Usual Alias]

He's one of the guys that when his parents had to pay $10 to have his name on the back of his jersey, he came out WAY ahead.

Gimme an "Oh"
Gimme an "Oh"
Gimme a "mah"
Gimme a "nah"
Gimme a "wah"
Gimme a "new"
Gimme an "ee"
Whaddya got? Um..........

[OC Dolphin]

I understand that his younger brother plays baseball...Hoomana, hoomana, hoomana - SWING!

[bonmot]

Almost as bad as this guy's.

[NotSherly]

I hope it's 'Smith', too.

[DavCat]

He's 'making' a name for himself? How many more letter does he want to add?

After a while, you get used to the fact that no one will ever be able to properly pronounce your last name. If I'd been a Mafia boss I'd have gotten no respect. It would have been, "Yes, Don..(awkward pause) Steve."
I'd bet this guy answers to anything that starts with, "Michael...(awkward pause)."

If he were a sumo wrestler, he wouldn't have to make a name for himself. They would give him one, like Takamiyama, Akebono or Konishki.

C'mon, the coach probably said something like "We need a big-name receiver" and was misunderstood by management.

[WriterDude]

As if the Rams' announcers don't endure enough pain as it is.

"Nui" just means "much" or "great," so he's a great Hoomanawa, which means egg man of war, or something. Does he fish for Humuhumunukunukuapua'a ?

[Meanie the Blue]

I thought it meant "Snooki".

[Hey Zeus]

I wonder if he ran into Brandon Spikes during the Pats game?

Oh Oh Ho Ho

[danceswithvowels]

Smith, huh? So could we call him judi for short?

That could get a might confusing. Bruce it is, then.

[danceswithvowels]

Sorry, I used a wrong word ...

That could get a might mite confusing.

No, that's still not right. Let's try again ...

That could get a might mite bedbug confusing.

That's better!

Careful Dave. When I was in the Army I learned to never piss off a polynesian. They are big boys, who can bounce Airborne Rangers off of walls.

Fortunately I wasn't Airborne, I was a friend of the polynesian that the Airborne pissed off. The enlisted club at Ft. Gordon was never the same after that night...

[wingnut]

When this guy was at Illinois no one even tried to say his name. To his coaches, radio and tv guys he was just oh-oh.

[bonmot]

Sure, the polynesians get all the press, but what about all those mononesians, huh?
