William Floyd of the San Francisco 49ers was nicknamed "Bar None" by
teammate Ken Norton Jr. after Floyd's agent said, before  he had ever
played a down, he was "the best fullback in the NFL 'bar none.'"  By the
end of last season, Floyd was calling Steve Young "Bar Young," Jerry
Rice "Bar Rice," and for offensive tackle Harris Barton, who's Jewish,
Floyd came up with "Bar Mitzvah."  (SF Chronicle)

A recent comment by Ted Turner about his baseball team, the Atlanta
Braves, made it obvious someone else counts his money.  Speaking about
how his team got its big lead in the National League East he said,
"We've had some help from the Phillies.  Haven't they lost nine of their
last eight?"  (SF Chronicle)
