Default What is in a name

Saw an article that caught my eye, very unscientific, but entertaining:

If your last name begins with M or W-and you are a 1st round type player the odds are that Pat's will select you,

Mayo
Mankins
Maroney
Merriweather
Wilfork
Watson

* This falls to:

Maualuga
Mack
Maybin
Monroe
Mathews
Moreno
Maclin
Moore,D.j.
Mccoy
Wells
* Interesting enough- 3 of my top 4:
Maualuga
Mack
Mathews
*English the other.
