Richard had a side business, raising rabbits. He finally gave it up when everybody began to refer to him as 'Harey Dick'.

Our former Vice President, Big Dick Cheney.

There was that UNC football coach: Dick Crum.

As a kid I remeber seeing a tshirt on game day that said "I'd rather have herpes than Dick Crum".

Thanks for reminding me that you were a KID then. That's a good way to make an old lady feel older.

If it makes you feel any better, I've never, ever heard of Dick Crum. ;)

Apologies.

Oh, that makes me feel YEARS better.

Dick Crum coached the 'holes from 1978-87. They finished first in the conference my freshman year and they went to bowl games all four years I was at Duke. I despised him and his team.

There was a bumper sticker that Duke and State fans put on their cars (and dorm room doors): "I'd rather have jock itch than Dick Crum."

Seriously. You've never heard of him?

CathyCA wrote:...Seriously. You've never heard of him?

No, I really haven't. 1987 is the very leading edge of my memories of just about anything, and with regard to sports, I was really only interested in Duke basketball at the time. For the sake of reference, Danny Ferry is the first "favorite player" of whom I have any clear memories. This era would have been well before I knew much of anything about players/coaches at other schools.
I am, however, a little surprised that I've never heard of Dick Crum before...it is indeed a pretty unfortunate moniker.

Oh my. I'm old enough to be your mother. Were you born in 1984?

No wonder you didn't know about Dick Crum.

Is Dick Crum related to Denny Crum (former Louisville coach)?

Very good question. I don't know.

If.....
... I could save time in a bottle...

I were a rich man...

If I were a swan, I'd be gone.

If a picture paints a thousand words, then why can't I paint you?
