Ron Mexico

This is a bit of fun at the expense of Atlanta Falcon's Quarterback Michael Vick...

Vick's alias not funny to NFL, real guy

ATLANTA (AP) - The NFL is trying to stop the spread of Ron Mexico.

Since that name was listed as an alias for Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick in a lawsuit filed last month, a number of people have gone to the NFL's online store to order Vick's No. 7 replica jersey with a personalized "MEXICO" on the back.

Now, fans trying to order the customized jersey get this message: "The personalization entered cannot be accepted."

The alias was printed in court documents in a civil lawsuit filed March 14 that alleges Vick, infected the woman with herpes. Vick has said he will fight the charges.

Among the parties listed in the lawsuit is "Ron Mexico," which the plaintiff's attorneys claim Vick has used as a pseudonym. Vick's attorney, Lawrence Woodward, did not immediately return repeated calls to his office this week.

The Falcons haven't commented on the case.
...
News of the made-up moniker has circulated on sports talk shows and Web sites.

"This is life. This is freedom of speech. You can't control what people say or do. As long as you control yourself and conduct yourself in a well-mannered way, that's all you can do," said Falcons safety Keion Carpenter.

Carpenter is Vick's best friend on the team and a business partner who helped the quarterback start his youth football camps.

A web site, www.ronmexico.com, features a Ron Mexico T-shirt with Vick's image, his number and "MEXICO", available for purchase at $16.07, and links to news articles about the lawsuit.

The owner of the site, a 30-year-old Chicago man who would not give his name, said it already has viewed at least 10,000 times and he has sold about 100 of the T-shirts.

"I don't want the site to represent a judgment on the case or Vick as a person," he said in a telephone interview. "It's making fun of the alleged porno name. The guy is an amazing player, so the nickname's going to stick with him regardless, one way or the other."

The attention has also thrust an unwilling Ron Mexico (not an alias) into the spotlight.

"I've been getting a ton of calls. People are asking me if I know him. I don't, of course," said Mexico, an auto parts supplier in Brighton, Mich.

"How do you pull a name like that out of the air? Use Bob Smith or Jim Johnson; there's 50 million of them. Out of all the names in the whole world, I wanna know how he picked this name out," Mexico wondered.

He said he only knows of two other Ron Mexicos - and he's related to both of them.

So of course this caused a nice little website where you can get your own "Ron Mexico" name...
