    Yes, you are the only male in America who doesn't get that. What is WRONG with you?!?!

    I keed, I keed.

    But seriously, "johnson" is a pretty standard slang expression for penis.

    I may never look at Randy "The Big Unit" Johnson the same way again.

    They call him "The Big Unit," but I've heard he's *ahem* average-sized.

    Actually saw this one on page 4C of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel Saturday:

    "Wang wears out Sox"

    I am familiar with the t-shirts and all.

    It's just doesn't automatically trigger like, say "pecker."

    I meant to put that headline up last week.
    The photo also plays in with the headline nicely (the mayor of Baton Rouge has a goofy grin on his face and Johnson looks a little sheepish)

    Or perhaps the greatest name in all of sports:

    Magic Johnson.

    2 pages, and no one has mentioned the Topeka Capital-Journals infamous gaffe?

    Topeka High (Trojans) vs. Topeka Seamen.

    Yup.

    Trojans stop Seamen.

    Can I ask how a school in Topeka got the name Seamen? Is there water of any substance within a 1000 miles of there?

    My alma mater, Cocke County High School, home of the Fighting Cocks had a big arch-rival in the Morristown West Trojans.

    Hijinks ensued.

    Last year, the college football team I cover put out a release, with a corrected headline 10 minutes later, after the head coach, named Johnson, hired a new assistant with the last name of Hooker. Original headline: "Johnson completes staff with hiring of Hooker"
