in keeping with my habit of Spending A While Thinking About Shit That Doesn’t Matter, you know how old hockey players used to have nicknames that were regularly used in place of their given names - Cyclone Taylor, Toe Blake, Boom Boom Geoffrion, Turk Broda, King Clancy, Tiger Williams, etc.?
well, I’ve decided what mine would be: Turkey Vulture

Jean Beliveau was voted the his teammates as Captain of the storied Montreal franchise. "So I'm in a cast when the boys are having the vote. Toe's fedora is being passed around the room, and we're dropping the little papers into it. You could vote for Dickie, for Boom (Bernie "Boom Boom" Geoffrion), for Tom Johnson or for me. By then, I had been 33 days in a cast. I never thought for a second anybody would vote for me. I voted for Dickie."
"After the vote, I went up to see Mr. Selke (the team's powerful general manager of the time), 'I don't deserve to be captain of this team.'
"He said, 'What would you want me to do? Go downstairs and tell those players they picked the wrong guy?' "

I don’t even hugely care about hockey but then Boom it just erupts out of me - almost like a Boom Boom for Boom Boom Geoffrion who our cat is named after.
