	Gervin, not Gerving.

	When was Troy Aikman EVER called 'The Godfather'?

	addicted1:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 07:52 GMT	5 points
	Good idea to mention in the instructions "make sure to put Jr, 2nd or 3rd etc if appropriate". Gervin, and never heard of Aikman referred that way.

	it's chris andersen not anderson and accept mayweather not mayweather jr

	Tintinnase:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 14:46 GMT	2 points
	cool quiz but would be better with fewer questions. i would eliminate the same-name items as bostnboy3 said, and also the less interesting ones like "tmac" and "kmart."

	ercwtzl:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 15:11 GMT	3 points
	D Wade? Seriously?

	mrun41:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 16:58 GMT	3 points
	ochocinco is chad ochocinco's actual name, not johnson.

	ruz:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 17:48 GMT	2 points
	This quiz has potential but needs a lot of work. * Last names only are acceptable for everyone except Barkley and Marbury -- add those in. * Last names only should be acceptable for Griffey and Ripken -- you shouldn't have to add the Jr. * Get rid of any of the nicknames that have the player's last name in them (Jordan, James, Bolt)

	I tried Tiger Woods for "The Big Easy". :$

	BCSwede:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 19:16 GMT	2 points
	The title of the quiz says "Can you name the athletes nicknames" (grammatically incorrect, by the way), but you actually give us their nicknames; what you are asking for is their real names... so it should say "Can you name the athletes from their nicknames".

	World B. Free's name is World B. Free. He legally changed it a while back (http://hoopedia.nba.com/index.php?title=World_B._Free).

	Theosaurus:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 21:51 GMT	1 point
	Typing "and" gave me Charley Barkley & Stephon Marbury. It is "Dwyane Wade", not "Dwayne Wade".

	RockSauce22:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 22:57 GMT	-1 points
	This is a good idea but your missing some good nicknames like for instance Mr Clutch - Jerry West and The Big Hurt - Frank Thomas; and its definitely Gervin not Gerving and World B Free and Ochocinco shouldnt be on here because those are their real names now.

	mpw167:	Apr 14th, 2010 at 00:51 GMT	2 points
	I realize Mad Dog was maddux's nickname as well, but you need to accept Ryan Madson for Mad Dog as well.

	mstanek28:	Apr 14th, 2010 at 02:52 GMT	1 point
	Sorry guys, i fixed all the corrections so hopefully its better now.

	BiloxiSean:	Apr 14th, 2010 at 03:25 GMT	1 point
	Dude you know how long Kaka's real name is? I doubt if he knows the whole thing. BTW, one soccer player? There is a whole bunch you could have used, that would be known to the average American sports fan:Zizu, Becks, Gooch, Deuce, Jozy, etc.

	cjf2010:	Apr 14th, 2010 at 03:33 GMT	2 points
	Most American sports fans would only know one of those biloxisean. and you should not need to include jr in answers

	MrBRW:	Apr 14th, 2010 at 03:38 GMT	1 point
	Why do we need the Jr. for Griffey and Ripken, but not Mayweather?

	mstanek28:	Apr 14th, 2010 at 03:59 GMT	1 point
	sorry i fixed it. it didnt work the first time

	fletchman03:	Apr 14th, 2010 at 05:47 GMT	1 point
	94 correct....not too shabby....

	EDogg1438:	Apr 14th, 2010 at 07:28 GMT	1 point
	Only missed 1.....who the hell called Aikman "the Godfather"? I even googled it just now and didn't find any evidence of that.

	Freder23:	Apr 14th, 2010 at 15:18 GMT	2 points
	There is only 1 LT - Lawrence Taylor. You should not accept Tomlinson.
