Yet another name that GOFL player contest


In July 2013 and April 2014, I had a "contest" on the blog to see if readers could identify GOFL players based on some photos, which in turn were based on their nicknames.

With it being a slow news day due to last night's playoff games being rained out, I thought it was time for another one. To refresh your memory, here are the "rules", such as they are:

Sometimes you may play against (or even with) a particular player for a long period of time and never know their actual name on their birth certificate. Or you may have a nickname (like I do) that only people you play ball with call you by - your other friends outside fastball have never heard you called that.

With that in mind, this contest tests your knowledge of Greater Ottawa Fastball League player nicknames. See below for four sets of images, each representing a player in the GOFL.

If you know the real names of the players these represent, put your answers in the comments and leave your name (or nickname, I suppose). First person to get all four correct receives a complementary refreshment from me at the Final Weekend Showdown beer tent.
