    I've always had a BIG problem with the TV people who use pseudonyms. Let's see... you're there to report the news, and you start by giving your viewers a fake name.

    Credibility? Uh... no.

    I don't have a problem with it if the given name might work against their credibility. I remember a rather fetching anchor in California who changed her name because her real last name was Supple.

    Yep, real name Storen, daughter of Mike Storen, who was commissioner and GM of a few teams in the ABA. As someone, who loved Terry Pluto's "Loose Balls," I was really surprised about 10 years back when I first found out they were related.

    We had a classmate named Lipschitz. First day of school, teacher is taking role, stumbles over his name.
    "Lip-shiiits??, Lip-??? ..."
    The kid calls out, "It's SHITS."

    Father was Charles Einstein, who wrote "Willie's Time," among hundreds of other things about baseball.

    Stone Cold Steve Austin changed his name to differentiate himself from Steve "Dr. Death" Williams (RIP). Williams' finishing move was the Oklahoma Stampede.

    I for one am shocked that a professional wrestler would take part in anything that was fake ...
