July 10, 200916 yr Everyone shortens it anyway. The homophone I was trying for Texas > Texsax > Texsox just wasn't working to my ear either.
July 10, 200916 yr QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 10:10 AM) What does a name change have to do with being a homophobe? The evil misquoter strikes back
July 10, 200916 yr lost,Sqwert,corn,knight,commie......this list goes on and on of all the people that would be better off with shortened names.
July 10, 200916 yr QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 10:21 AM) I ain't no OX-MORON Nice Renaissance Man reference.
July 10, 200916 yr QUOTE (mreye @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 03:49 PM) Nice Renaissance Man reference. I didn't think anybody would get it. Ironically that movie is probably the closest to what boot camp is actually like of all the movies I've seen.

Mine doesn't get much shorter, even though I haven't gone by Jake since I signed up for soxtalk way back when. All my friends refer to me as J.
July 10, 200916 yr QUOTE (The Critic @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 04:37 PM) I think it's Tex's way of disassociating himself from the White Sox. Traitor. Ouch.

July 11, 200916 yr I've thought about changing my username for awhile now, but I can't ever bring myself to it. But, seeing Tex is just weird even if that's what everyone refers to you as. Now people are just going to call you "T". Really though, you taking off "Sox" is like if my dad shaved his mustache after he has had one my entire 21 years of existence. I don't know what I'd do.
