6.30 Jacques Sorenstam is Djibril Cisse
7.02 Robert Bish is Bobby Firmino

Cisse is a speedy French wideout, a little overweight at the combine, if we can fine tune him in pre-season he might just have elite speed. Delighted to get the Frenchman this late

Firmino has 6 years experience on the clock, he's a little lightweight for RB so we're likely to use him as a dual threat RB/WR Hybrid.

So we'll go into the season with plenty of offensive threat. We just need to get them some protection now (Keegan, Mane, Cisse and Firmino) are the latest Fab Four to come out of Liverpool :0)

Hey....My name change list is done. I am not going to change the last 10 or so names because, I hope, to replace those guys before they get a 2nd contract.

Bermuda's Tuesday Name Changes so far...

Pick 37.12 TE Thomas Hammond wanted to be a library cop as a kid because he was offended by the drawings of pee pees and wee wees in books. He is now Joe Bookman.
Pick 38.21 WR Larry Williams will give you New York Rangers playoff tickets, just be sure to thank him after unless you want to sit with face painters. Alec Berg don't play.
Pick 39.12 C Charles Douglass once received a scholarship from The Susan Ross Foundation, but it was taken away, so he joined up with a local street gang, The Van Buren Boys. I introduce Steven Koren.
Pick 40.21 LB turned DE Curtis Woodson is named after a grumpy old man who will tell you that you can have his old records, but once his housekeeper plays that voodoo music, he changes his mind and attacks you. Welcome Sid Fields.
Pick 41.12 DE turned DT John Whittenburg once auditioned for the role of George on the fledgling pilot Jerry. Meet Michael Barth.

I assume The Admiral will rename all eXplosive Siberians. There are enough spare names for the next three seasons on my tablet.

Pick 42.21 WLB Charles Mata is named for the old writer who suffered a stroke just before Elaine was gonna break up with him. The stroke damage was made worse due to a traffic jam caused by George Costanza's failed attempt to park cars during the Woody Allen movie that was being filmed. Meet Owen March.
Pick 43.12 SS Ivan Whitehead likes to play the saxophone, and would have signed a record deal but he got all hot and heavy with his girlfriend right before and his tired tongue made him play horribly. Poor John Germaine.
Pick 44.21 C Lawrence Stivers was in college when someone slipped him a mickey at the local pub. Stivers is now known as Rick Levitan, George's former boss and mickey recipient, thanks to Elaine's naked talk.

Pick 45.12 RG Derrick Dameron is named after an unseen character. Anyone who has watched Seinfeld has heard the Pachyderm story, approaching two women with burning pizza in his hands. Anyway, he's now Jerry Persheck
Pick 46.21 C Corey Melendez met Elaine Benes at a party once, but doesn't remember her. Meet Fred Yerkes.

Just checked, and can confirm what I said previous...I can only change rookie names now, my veterans no longer have a rename button.

If the commish can still change all names, I may submit some requests after LFA.

Yes, rookies only now, I'll rename the Tunguska rookies and that will likely be all.
