For the record, I didn't send this text message "I'm The Hoff" when prompted during a game in Milwaukee recently. I found this shot on the sports blog everyone should be reading daily, Deadspin.com, whose editor, Will Leitch, deserves all the credit for posting this earlier today.

There's the story of "Baywatch" star David Hasselhoff being tossed out at Wimbledon recently for being too tipsy. His comment as he was being led away: "Do you know who I am? I’m The Hoff.�

So anyone of us who's been called "Hoff" can use this, right. But how did "Hasselhoff" get shortened to ... Must have been that Christmas card he sent out:

Now, why do I feel like such a weiner?
