This year's NFL draft picks include Jadeveon Clowney, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix and Darqueze Dennard.

No, I'm not pulling your leg:

Houston Texans select Jadeveon Clowney No. 1 overall

Green Bay Packers select Ha Ha Clinton-Dix No. 21 overall in the 2014 NFL draft

Cincinnati Bengals select Darqueze Dennard No. 24 overall in the 2014 NFL draft

Those Key & Peele parodies aren't that much of an exaggeration:

East/West College Bowl - Key & Peele

East/West College Bowl 2 - Key & Peele

I probably missed a few, since I don't follow the NFL.

Nice to see we are sinking to the level of our DU friends.

We’re supposed to set the bar on this site.

Actually Ha-ha is a nickname. Real name is Ha’sean. For what it’s worth.

It started with Muslim names in the '60s.

Personal favorite was Sixers' player Wally Jones changing to Wali Jones.

It's probably racist to make fun of their names

In this situation, yes. Generally, it's merely low-class.

Google Key and Peele’s “East-West Bowl Game”... confirmation that it’s not racist, just ridiculous.

It was Dan Fouts who pointed out that when He Hate Me chose to put that on the back of his jersey, the alternative was Smart.

Can't be. There has to be at least 11 F-bombs on this page, and no fewer than two references to bat excrement.

When they called all the players up on stage right before the draft started, it sounded like the skit from Key and Peele.

In the movie THE POSTMAN one of the blacks was named “Ford Lincoln”.

I’m waiting for Hard Drive Washington and Down Load Jones.

"Meh. Are those names any more ridiculous than Willard, Prince Danforth or Milhous?"

Oh, yes.

"Cash"

Like everyone else I laughed at the song all the time thinking why didn't he change his name. Yeah, I know, comedic necessity.

ESPN embarrassed itself today. Its all Manziel - all the time - all those players picked before him ignored. Then they say Dallas dissed Manziel - did rhose other 20 something teams diss them too?

Then they called him the savior of the Browns.
This has gotten as retarded as Tiger Woods and Danica Patrick as the only figures worth talking about in their sports.

Utterli ridiculous!

Actually, I was referring to his song "Boy Named Sue" and how the absent father gave the boy that name to ensure he grew up tough...
