I wouldnt have a clue who he is so I wont guess - but my friends husbands surname is Podshedcics - which is quite similar - and his parents are polish & russian.

According to Wikipedia, he's Polish. Sounds about right. I thought, of course, Scott Podsednik sounds like the name of a nice Polish boy from Chicago...only he's a native of West Texas!

Thanks. BTW I'm rooting for the team he plays for, the White Sox, to win the World Series...

Scott Podsednik is not too shabby looking...I like his gorgeous face,especially his eyes and his beard thingy..
But St. Louis' Albert Pujols is soooooo to die for....

I was curious about Scotty's last name too...it's so uncommon so I looked it up on the web and found this:
Occupations of your ancestors (and their godparents)
PODSEDEK or PODSEDNIK- Czech (in German Untersasser or Podsedker). Peasant, his social-economical status was between farmer and cottager. He hired plot by bigger farmer, unlike the farmers who were renters of the feudal landlords. Podsednik had up to 10 acres of arable fields, whereas big farmers, owned about 40 acres, i.e. +4x more.
So, it's a Czech name apparently. ;)
