"You couldn’t have a starker contrast between the multiple layers of checks and balances [at ‘60 Minutes’] and a guy sitting in his living room in his pajamas writing.”
Some folks have names just made for jersey sales, potentially leading to profits well beyond what their popularity as players would justify: Beside the aforementioned Satan and Boozer, the Mets have a pitcher named Stoner (I keep waiting for someone to modify his jersey to wear number 420), and and outfielder named Angel Pagan (which would also make an awesome set of knuckle tattoos).
I read somewhere that apparently Randall Gay (there's a william gay too who plays for the Steelers) had trouble at one point getting NFL merchandise to print his jerseys- seems it ran afoul of their political policy of not putting controversial statements on offical NFL merchandise.

I'm sure there were some good headlines when Miroslav Satan signed with New York too.
Wasn't there an Emerson Boozer who played in the Jets backfield behind Joe Namath? That would seem a ripe opportunity as well.
Of course it doesnt beat the story of the high school (or college?) basketball player, Johnny Yurin.
"... and Yurin dribbles down the court"

Randall Gay on the Saints, probably not so much.
