Kirby is funny.
In college I played Ultimate Frisbee (UF currently has the nation's best team, btw... when I was there, we were 5th).
Tons more competitive that you might ever guess.
Anyway, we had 5 Scotts on the team. On the field, there are only 7 players at a time. It presented a problem.
So, we got nicknames - Kermit, Marlin, Spiny, Grouper and Big Bird.
I was Kermit, that's why Kirby strikes me as funny.
