National Signing Day

Readers of the Pix know that one of my favorite days of the year is the day that high school football recruits sign their letters of intent to attend whatever playschool/college they choose. Not only does the day provide a window into how each school's prospects for the future look, it provides us with the always hilarious list of names that America's parents have chosen to bestow on their offspring. This years list of interesting monikers comes with a twist.....The Pix is going to invent three names and include them randomly. Readers who reply in the "comments" section and guess any or all of the invented names will recieve due recognition on the least read blog in America and a beverage of your choice compliments of the Pix. For the record, the following names are all first names and were selected from CNNSI's compilation of high school football recruits for the 2009 season. Rest assured, this list could be 10x longer. These names come from approximately 15 out of 115 division 1 college programs. The List:

Kadero
Lequan
Tomasi
Osahon
Tourek
Cassetti
Jacarri
Olajuwan
Dave (making sure you are paying attention)
Radermon
Larvez (my favorite for some reason)
Markeith
Sharquilmaa
Tevita
Meshack (no relation to Horshack from Welcom back Kotter)
Payden
Eryon
IK
Javontay
Daytawion
Taige
Shayon
Ray Ray
Kipeli
Snardamus
Pu'u
Vontaze (I think there was a Vontaze last year too)
Quayshawn
Sekope
Darrington
Tanelia
Stanjarivus (not to be confused with Stanjarvious from last year)
Morrell (has a brother Portabello and a sister Chantarelle)
Iuta
Preep

Sample invented names that didn't make the cut:

Kilderion
Roarfus
Mysphincter
Ja Ja
Kinkon



That's it. That's the list. Get thyself to the comments section and enter for your prize. A prize will also be awarded to whomever can invent a name better than what we have here.

Off you go....

The bogus names are:

Sharquilmaa
Snardamus (easiest to spot)
Preep (way to close to Breeet)

Rantavious Wooden (had the pix put this on the list i would have picked it)
