It has been pointed out that the old Cleveland Spiders’ roster is something that grabs your attention.
But to take this much further, many of the players’ first names would be better names for a team than Spiders itself.
First Last | Better Team Name Than Spiders?
Ice Box Chamberlain | Yes
Cupid Childs | Yup
Lave Cross | Uh huh
Pretzels Gretzien | Absolutely
Mike Goodfellow | Nah
Mortimer Hogan | Sure
Cowboy Jones | Yes, but a different Jones might try to make us actually-poor.
