The Ginger Princess

Speaking of nicknames, we’ve been trying to tag Lori Chalupny with “The Ginger Princess” for a while now and it’s just not sticking. Chalupny, who bears resemblance to Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes (a.k.a. the Ginger Prince) in hair color, stature and playing style, is known by Chalupa, Chalups or Chups on the WNT, which we guess is easier to say on the field. But if the media out there could help us out and print “Ginger Princess” a few times, we really would appreciate it.

I have more often heard Scholes called the "Ginger Ninja" which rhymes if spoken by the English.

Just steal that nickname as would a ninja. "Princess" just doesn't strike the fear it ought to strike.

BTW-- I'm very proud Chalupny is from around Saint Louis and plays for our River Cities FC.
