During Sunday Night Football's lineup segment, in which players announce their names and alma maters, Carolina Panthers defensive end Greg Hardy introduced himself as a "Kraken" who attended "Hogwarts," the fictional school of witchcraft and wizardry from the Harry Potter book series.

Hardy is a fan of nicknames and has called himself "Kraken" for a while now. This summer, he gave everyone on the Panthers defensive line a new moniker, including one for the whole unit: "MonStrz Inc." And Hogwarts is the best school in the world, so it all makes sense. Also, sunglasses.
