Subject: Athlete Name Chain
Written By: Marian on 03/20/04 at 02:22 p.m.
:DIn this game you take the last letter,or sound of the name of an athlete and use them as the first part of the name of the next athlete.Kind of like other chains.......................................Jair Lynch............................................................Oh,and for the purpose of this game,you can go last name first or first name first,since some Asian atheltes have the family name first.cheers! Also,athlete means ANY kind of athlete,from ones you would normally see in the sports section--even race car drivers and golfers---and even pro wrestlers.
