It certainly means she overcame a bad start.


Thats you talking about Castillo BTW.
Obviously only an imbecile would think that was name dropping, and I don't.
But basically you are saying that mentioning a guys first name is name dropping, even if in the context of a mundane factual remark.
I disagree.
I couldn't pick Herb Castillo out from a lineup of NBA players and I call him "Herbie", that's what everybody calls him... like "Johnny V", or "Javy".
