The Name Game

[impy13]

This game is fun and easy, but can get difficult sometimes. I play it with my boys at the ballpark all the time.

The basic premise is you take an athlete in any (professional sport) and use their name to link them to another athlete.

Example...

Person A starts with: Michael Jordan
Person B says: MICHAEL Finley
Person C Says: Steve FINLEY

Basically just link either the first or last name. It can get pretty heated. The way we play it, once you get stumped, you're out. Once every player is stumped, the last man standing is the winner. Hell, I've won a game with "Tike Redman" before
.

Anyway, here goes:

Michael Young - Texas Rangers

sorry, this is a game free forum

 

[impy13]

Hmm, don't remember seeing that anywhere.

Whatever you say, chief.

 

[Chizip]

it's in the FAQ's, check the small print

 

[impy13]

Righto, oh well. It should be because this game is a good test of sports knowledge.

 

[Chizip]

yeah it's a shame

 

[impy13]

Show me where it says that, if you would.

 

[Chizip]

sorry chief, there are a million other games in the other forums you can play if you want

 

[impy13]

No need to start getting worked up about this, alright bud? I see it now, fair enough. Sorry I don't have time or necessarily feel like reading every single word of the FAQ.

 

[impy13]

Plus, the FAQ I'm reading doesn't say that anywhere.

 

[Chizip]

oh im not worked up, just trying to respect the rules. if you like games I suggest you check out the following:

One Word Game
Describe the person above you game
Food thread game
Song Title Chain game
80's name game
U2 Name game
U2 lyrics game
Abbreviated U2 game
Movie Chain game

 

[impy13]

I participate in pretty much all of them. None of them, however, are sports oriented, so I was just trying to start something new.

See, that's the same part of the FAQ you were looking at.

Really, it's not. No offense. My brother and his buddies play this game for hours on end.

 

[impy13]

So do my friends and I. I do believe it's a test of how comprehensive your sports knowledge is though. Our games don't last forever because we don't allow the same name twice.
