All Troys Are Winners

Original Article

My name is Troy, and I’ve realized that all people with the name Troy are winners. I didn’t realize it until one of my best friends — also has the name Troy — imparted the knowledge to me. But the truth remains: all people who’s name is Troy are winners — that’s RIGHT: W-I-N-N-E-R-S.

– Troy Polamalu: Safety for the NFL’s Pittsburgh Steelers. Super Bowl XL champion.
– Troy Aikman: Former Quarterback of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys. 3-time Super Bowl champion
– Troy Brown: Former Wide Receiver of the NFL’s New England Patriots. 3-time Super Bowl champion
– Troy Glaus: Third Basemen for the MLB’s St. Louis Cardinals. He was the 2002 World Series MVP for the Anaheim (Los Angeles) Angels
– Troy Tulowitzki: Shortstop for the MLB’s reigning National League champion Colorado Rockies
– Troy Smith: Quarterback for the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens. 2006 Heisman trophy winner. Was the catalyst for the Ohio State Buckeyes team that appeared in the 2007 BCS National Championship game.
– Evan Helmuth played a character named ‘Troy’ in the movie Fever Pitch (2005; starring Jimmy Fallon and Dru Berrymore). How is he a champion? Well, the Red Sox won the title in 2004 — the movie’s plot involved the Red Sox, and it took place in 2004. The character’s favorite team won the World Series, therefore it renders him to be a winner, too!

I rest my case.
