    I like that the key word in #3 is “born” in ND. For a minute I though Mr. Maris would be pretty upset.

    It’s Travis Hafner has 157 Homeruns. His nickname is pronk and in 2001 with the Rangers he answered to Project and Donkey. Hafner said “You can’t call me both!”

    So they fused the two handles. “Donkject didn’t sound quite right,” Hafner said. “But Pronkey….”. Almost used Pronkinator but ended up with just Pronk.
