Are you sure your name is Erwin?

I did a doubletake yesterday while watching Austria v. Germany in the Euro 2008 Football Championship, and it definitely wasn't because the Germans played so well.

Meet Erwin Hoffer, member of the Austrian national soccer team!

Wtf? This guy's name is Erwin? Well then I believe in miracles...

Maybe now I should take back all those awful things I said about mustaches and Dresden accents. Erwin Hoffer has shattered the Erwin mold!

After a quick background check, I found out that he actually goes by his nickname "Jimmy". Heck, I would too.
