The Miami Dolphins were much better than the Packers on Thanksgiving in one category
The Packers beat the Dolphins on Thanksgiving day 30 to 17. The Pack dominated the first half and then kinda coasted the second half to the win.
But there was one area where the Dolphins have us beat: funny names. Particularly Storm Duck and River Cracraft.

River Cracraft |
I feel there is some water related story involving these fellows somehow but these are their actual names.
I guess it reminds me of Vic and Sade (or to a lesser extent, Fred Allen or even Dickens). For example: Rush's school principal was named Mr. Chinbunny. The garbage man was named Mr. Gumpox (he drove a horse drawn wagon pulled by his horse Howard, Howard had a sister named Bernice but she died). The least favored members of the All-star marching team in Vic's opinion were two men, twins from Hoopston IL named Robert and Slobert Hink. The local restaurant favored by the big boss of Vic's plant was called: The Little Tiny Petite Pheasant Feather Tea Shoppe (pronounced shoppy). Vic's second in command at the Drowsy Venus chapter of the Sacred Stars of the Milky Way lodge was Hank Gutstop. One of the neighbors and co-workers of the Gook family was Charlie Razorscum.
I could go on and on - who doesn't like hearing funny names ?
