BJ Ryan - A crazy long haired big ass closer.

BJ Upton - A young stud prospect who unfortunately plays for Tampa Bay.

The NFL BJs

BJ Askew - A former Jet who has pretty much accomplished nothing.

BJ Sander - A useless punter from Ohio St.

BJ Sams - A punt return specialist for the Ravens who missed the entire season.

The NBA BJ

BJ Armstrong - Rode Michael and Scottie to NBA titles. Probably handed out a BJ or two in his day.

The NHL BJ

BJ Crombeen - He plays hockey thus I have no idea whom he is.

Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s.
