timmerov
i've been asked: what's the ov in timmerov? well, as you know i play roller hockey. my wife and father-in-law are from detroit. so by marriage i am now a red wings fan. this happened some time around when scotty was still sending out the ov line. during one visit dad came to watch us play. i scored 4 goals that game. dad said, nice game. and i said, just call me timmerov. it stuck. for the next two christmases my presents were beautiful red wings jerseys with my number and the name timmerov on the back. one white and one practice jersey black.
usually i just go by timmer. but so do a few dozen other people in the world. and the user name timmer is often taken. the most wonderful thing about being timmerov is: i'm the only one.
