      Just came across this interesting titbit (its in this weeks TV Guide)

      Proops, I Stepped in Something!
      Monday, August 9, 1999

      What's in a name? When your name is Greg Proops, the answer is plenty
      of potty-minded snickers.

      For Proops, a quick-witted improv comic and host of Comedy Central's
      VS. game show (daily, 5 pm/ET), that last name hanging over him is a
      joke waiting to happen. "I changed it; it used to be Carson," he
      tells Time Out New York. "But Carson is so ethnic. I wanted a name
      that is more scatological and easy to make fun of, because I never
      wanted to go through a day of grade school without having cried
      openly."

      VS. pits two teams from different worlds against one another in that
      cerebral blood sport called trivia. Past match ups have included
      Soccer Moms vs. Dominatrices, and Capitalists vs. Rastafarians. "We
      have an amazing casting director who can find a Rasta on Melrose
      Boulevard in half an hour," Proops quips.

      Fans of Star Wars: Episode 1 — The Phantom Menace might also know
      Proops, or at least his voice. He lent his vocal talents to the
      pod-racing scene as an announcer. Proops reveals, "I'm actually doing
      an impression of Ron Fairly, the Seattle Mariners' announcer — he
      always called everything wrong, and I always thought he spoke
      hilariously." — John Aboud
