“how the hell did football fans tolerate a celebrity named “Dick Butkus?”

Because if you had called him Dick Buttkiss to his face he’d probably have ripped your arms from their sockets?

it's worse than being named "Sue." You'd expect someone went through life being called that to be tough.

Either that, or smart enough to go by "Richard" or "Ricky" and maybe even change the lastname to whatever it was when his parents came over on the boat.

I'm still betting it's the biggest inside joke in football.
