supremebve Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 My name is Jeff, it's a fairly common name and it's never surprising to meet another man named Jeff. With that said, I've worked with a woman who went by Jeff, short for Jeffersine and another woman who told me her middle name is Jeff, short for Jeffina. My goal as a Jeff is that if I ever have a daughter to not name her after myself. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert C Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 My great grandparents deserve some sort of trophy for unoriginal naming. My grandmother was their sixth child, and only daughter. Instead of giving her an actual name, the just gave her first and middle initials - V. I. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all countries https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-21229475 Quote Several countries - such as Germany, Sweden, China and Japan - also restrict names. Why? In the case of Iceland, it's about meeting certain rules of grammar and gender, and saving the child from possible embarrassment. Sometimes, although not in every case, officials also insist that it must be possible to write the name in Icelandic. There is a list of 1,853 female names, and 1,712 male ones, and parents must pick from these lists or seek permission from a special committee. Similar concerns about child welfare are present in Germany, where a Turkish couple were not allowed to call their baby Osama Bin Laden. One couple named their baby Berlin after the city in which they met, prompting the registrar to mount an objection. He eventually relented after the family's lawyer pointed out that the courts had allowed the name London. Gender confusion prevented a German boy being Matti, because the sex of the baby wouldn't be obvious. And you won't find any Germans named Merkel, Schroeder or Kohl, either, because surnames are banned as first names. The name 4Real fell foul of authorities in New Zealand, because names cannot start with a number. A judge there also made a young girl a ward of court so that she could change the name she hated - Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii. When Japanese parents register their newborns, the local authorities can say no if they don't think the name is appropriate. In 1993, the name Akuma, meaning "devil", was not permitted. And in China, people have been forced to change their names because they were deemed too obscure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 1 year suspension? So.........exactly the amount that both Cleveland and Watson assumed he'd get when they wrote his new contract. Brilliant plan, NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremebve Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 If the NFL is smart, and this is a massive if... they'd suspend him for 2 years with time served if he pays back last seasons salary. That isn't perfect, but it actually seems like a legitimate punishment. They should have suspended him last season, but they just let it ride out until the courts played out, which is fine except they aren't going to punish him for 2 more seasons and a one season suspension doesn't seem like enough. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted June 20, 2022 Author Share Posted June 20, 2022 I am trying to find it now but I saw something where the attorney on the NFLPA's side is pushing that Watson isn't suspended at all. So the usual - if the NFL wants him gone a year, they are gonna have to suspend him for like 2 because the arbiter is gonna slice it in like half.

supremebve Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 So apparently all but 4 cases have been settled which makes me ask, what the fuck took him so long?

Looking at this now, my cynical/conspiratorial mind says the NFL has told him what the punishment is going to be if he does or does not get rid of these cases, and his legal team is acting with extreme haste. I'm gonna guess the NFL Wheel o' Justice says 8 games, the arbitrator says 4. And we get a big "WELCOME BACK DESHAUN" puff piece in time for Cleveland to take on the Chargers. (Should be noted too, that the Brownies are quite potentially 4-0 at that point, regardless of who's QB.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
