Ted Kluszewski, Chicago White Sox
DATE: 5/8/1960
COMPLEX SAYS: We can't ride on this gaffe too much, homie's name is pretty much on that Coach K-steez. #unfuckwittable
Jon Koncak, Atlanta Hawks
DATE: 11/8/1993
COMPLEX SAYS: In 1989, Koncak received an Eddy Curry-like $13 million, six-year contract while playing off the bench. Think dude gave a fuck about his name being misspelled?
Joe Carter, Toronto Blue Jays
DATE: 7/14/1994
COMPLEX SAYS: All Carter did was hit the biggest walk-off homer in franchise history. Soundtrack, please!
Wayne Gretzky, New York Rangers

Adam Riggs, Anaheim Angels

COMPLEX SAYS: After several years in the minor leagues, Adam Riggs finally went pro, only to have a major-league FAIL in his debut.
Chris Andersen, Denver Nuggets
DATE: 2/21/2004
COMPLEX SAYS: Birdman's jersey fail in the '04 Dunk Contest >>> than his performance the following year.
Alex Rodriguez (fan)
DATE: Unknown
COMPLEX SAYS: We're guessing he got it for cheap?
Aaron Harang, Cincinnati Reds
DATE: 4/12/2005
COMPLEX SAYS: We see the Reds took the saying "there's no 'I' in team" to a new level. They still suck, though.
Matthew Harmon, Navy
DATE: 9/16/2006
COMPLEX SAYS: We know kickers get disrespected often but was this really necessary?
Seth Smith, Colorado Rockies
DATE: 2007
COMPLEX SAYS: One syllable, five letters. The high-altitude excuse can only go so far...
West Virginia men's basketball
DATE: 3/29/2007
COMPLEX SAYS: Who said college athletes aren't spending enough time in the classroom?
Jason Varitek, Boston Red Sox
DATE: 4/22/2007
COMPLEX SAYS: OK, this isn't a jersey but the pause-worthiness alone grants the "big stick" a spot on the list.
Bill Belichick, New England Patriots
DATE: 9/30/2007
COMPLEX SAYS: All those eyes on the field during Spygate and still no one spotted this mistake.
Richard Hamilton, Detroit Pistons
DATE: 3/18/2008
COMPLEX SAYS: And this is the reason why Hamilton started shitting on the Detroit organization...that and the fact that they've sucked balls (II) for the last few seasons.
Washington Nationals
DATE: 4/18/2009
COMPLEX SAYS: And, the Nats stay losing.
Ladell Betts, Washington Redskins
DATE: 8/13/2009

John Wall, Kentucky
DATE: 2/10/2010
COMPLEX SAYS: Not so dougie fresh now, huh?
Zaza Pachulia, Atlanta Hawks
DATE: 3/20/2010
COMPLEX SAYS: Having Zaza as a frist name is kind of a fail to begin with. #justsayin'
Eugenio Velez, San Francisco Giants
DATE: 4/8/2010
COMPLEX SAYS: The Bay, where they go dumb...
Rob Gronkowski, New England Patriots
DATE: 9/26/2010
COMPLEX SAYS: One fan of the rookie tight end pointed out the misspelling on her ordered jersey and the league told her to just deal with it. We agree, fuck the Pats and their fans.
Rob Niedermayer, Buffalo Sabres
DATE: 1/25/2011
COMPLEX SAYS: Niedermayer, they had this shit wrong for three games and not even you noticed? C'mon, son!
Kevin Williams, Minnesota Vikings
DATE: 11/21/2010
COMPLEX SAYS: Dude made six Pro Bowls and has a common last name, so you figure the Vikings could spell it right. These kind of mistakes didn't happen for Sir Show-my-cock-a-lot. Pause.
Chris Kaman, Los Angeles Clippers
DATE: 1/31/2011
COMPLEX SAYS: Spelled wrong on the court and in the NBA store? Then again, who the fuck buys a Chris Kaman jersey, anyway?
