Zavier Simpson going back to Xavier Simpson
Z got the Rona
Vanity plate: X2Z Z2X
I forget, did X or Z shoot free throws better?
It was Z. He improved marginally.
Just as long as he doesn’t go back to Jeffrey Jackson.
First Lovie Smith and now this....

I know I can’t believe that guy’s head exploded like that.
Everyone says this is the best episode of The Office made, but I don't see it. It's awkward, shot really in a cramp room the majority of the time, and makes you feel sad for Michael. The plasma tv part is funny though.
I can't watch that episode again. That, and the one about the college scholarship that he backed out of. Way too cringe-inducing.
Same. There's something about public relationship fights that is painful to watch.
I prefer the 'is she hot or not' argument episode
The best episode is the client dinner with Jan at Chili's.
So instead of "Z GONNA GIVE IT TO YA!" he's going back to "X GONNA GIVE IT TO YA!"
Cool, cool.
Ex-Zavier?
Can someone remind me why he had to go to Z in the first place? I know it had something to do with his birth certificate name or something, but then how do guys like Buddy Hield or Manny Harris get to play with nicknames? Is the rule you can have a nickname but not an alternate spelling of your name? That's weird.
It was a new rule a couple years ago.
And I believe it was just a B1G rule, so it wouldn't have affected Buddy Hield.
Cleveland State got hammered by that new rule. - Bobby Knight
He didn't like the way people were pronouncing his name. It was supposed to be phonetically as though it did begin with a Z: zayvyer, not x-zayvyer. The thought was changing the spelling would help people pronounce it correctly. What was confusing was that he still wanted to be referred to as "X" for short, and not "Z".
My guess is that being called Z bugged him more than the old, incorrect pronunciation of Xavier. Or his parents were upset, one of the two.
I love the guy either way. One of the great team players of all time.
It was a Big Ten rule change. We would have had Michael Albrecht and Corperryale Harris in our game programs if it had existed then.
Jeff Jackson is doing what now?
Living a drifter’s life, like David “Bruce” Banner.
Dr. Banner, pelted by gamma rays....
You wouldn't like him when he's angry.
He could've at least walked it back slowly, tried Yavier for a few months.
Or he could channel his Latino self and become Javier.

I'm considering McLovin Boucher
Z had a better hookshot and slightly better FT %
He's always preferred the nickname 'X' and original spelling as I understand it, he simply changed the spelling to Zavier to make the pronunciation more clear since fans would often mispronounce it as 'Ecksavier'
Sorry. I didn't see yours when I typed mine, right you are!
My dad went to St. Xavier High School in Cincinnati (which used to be part of the university). I think my dad's dying words were "it's not pronounced eck-savier." Such was his annoyance with the public's inability to understand proper pronunciation of "x" when at the beginning of a word.
No one say ex-zylophone, so why do they say ex-zavier?
People, as a whole, are stupid.
Thank you for that. Whenever I get that look for saying Zavier I will just respond with Zavier zylophone, ok?
Weirdly, I have decided to change my name to BronzBlue. Gotta keep the levels balanced.
Well either one is better than ballzblue.
Read the title too quickly and thought he enrolled at Xavier
