This may be the only sports site in the entire universe where such a pun might fit!

Hey, Max! I got it right off the bat. Just thought I'd let you know somebody did.

I don't want to spoil anyone's congratulations, but wasn't tsuwm's original post supposed to be a pun. The thread was focused on aptronyms, so his use of Eldredge among teenagers was a punny aptronym from the start, right? Not to slight Max, but wasn't he just using the same pun?

Or I'm missing something completely . . .

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that.

tsuwm gets one point for pun on age.
Max gets one point for pun on weirdness.

Okey-dokey?
