Leon’s Motives For Not Showing Are Pretty Good Today
Sounds like Kellen’s new bundle of joy has a friend. According to Leon Washington’s fiancee’s Twitter page, it looks like Leon Washington had a son sometime in the last 24 hours and the little guy was 7 pounds and 10 ounces. His fiancee jokingly tweeted this morning that the baby is “Looking just like his daddy already. Dern shame!”
The cleverest part, is that his name is Noel. Leon. Noel. Leon. Noel. Get it?
Congrats to Leon and his new family.

If that baby made it out as fast as Leon makes it in the endzone on a kick return, his wife would be hella happy.

Dean Barbella says:
A boy named Noel…? Better learn to play defense ’cause that’s a girly name!

Michael M says:
Dean, the lead singer of Oasis is Noel Gallagher

Dean Barbella gets the line of the day….
Well played sir!!
Neat that the name is Leon spelled backwards but a total “girly name”

When i think of the name ‘Noel’, i can’t help but think of Noel Redding, bassist for Jimi Hendrix and owner of the best afro on a white guy… except, for maybe Bob Ross..
I don’t think i’ve ever met a girl/woman named Noel, for what it’s worth..
Or are you guys referring to the girlishness of ‘noel’ like George Carlin made fun of guys named “todd” and “Kyle”? -
George from Bklyn says:
It’s not a girly name at all (as evidenced earlier); in fact, the woman’s equivalent is “Noelle”.
In any event, congratulations to Leon and his family; now let’s get that contract business ironed out so that we can focus on turning out a great season this fall.

Thanks, Michael M!
I forgot about the ‘tough guy’ lead singer of Oasis attacking Paparazzi!
Isn’t he the John Lennon wannabe always crying in his mascara?

GP says:
A. Noel Gallagher sucks, because Oasis sucks
B. Noel Redding had a cool fro, but was a mediocre bass player. The Experience was all about Jimi and Mitch.Congrats, Leon. I bet that kid is going to have some wheels on him.
Also, George frmo Bklyn, I approve of your name, considering I’m also George and I also live in Brooklyn.

Bent says: LIAM Gallagher is the lead singer of Oasis and the guy who always gets in fights with paparazzi and spits on stage. By the way, he is tiny, so it’s a classic case of little man syndrome.
NOEL is the lead guitarist and songwriter (well, Liam’s written a handful of songs but they are, without exception, AWFUL.) Noel is by far the more laid back of the two (but that’s like saying he’s the fatter Olsen twin). In that respect, maybe he is more girly than Liam.
I’ve never seen either of them cry or wear mascara, but they certainly are John Lennon wannabes.
It’s pronounced the same as grassy knoll, but then I can’t guarantee that Leon’s son’s name will be pronounced like that.

Imagine this headline……”Tampa Bay knows Askew could be one of the NFL’s best players”. Our old BJ Askew is the rage in Tampa Bay for being a blocking stud. Imagine?

Bent says:
Yeah, he was a Pro Bowl alternate last year, but one of the NFL’s best players?!?!
I always felt BJ was underappreciated here, but the thing he’ll be most fondly remembered for was going topless against the Packers.

Since his name is Noel…does that mean he runs really, really fast…..backwards?

Organized Chaos says:

On another note, congrats Leon! I wish your family the best.
