OT: Nicknames 

Post#1 » by Miller4ever » Sat Jan 17, 2009 5:38 am

I think we need to do another nickname check, because I'm starting to hear names that I've never ever heard before. Also, some players need nicknames, so feel free to add your own. Simply copy the list and add your own.

D-Grange, Danny Boy, Grange Rover, Granger Danger

Mike Dunleavy:
Dun Dun, Hee-Haw, Junior

T.J. Ford:
T.J.

Jeff Foster:
Feisty

Troy Murphy:
T-Murda, Trophy

Roy Hibbert:

Jarrett Jack:
JJ

Rasho Nesterovic:
...

Stephen Graham:
Graham Cracker

Travis Diener:
...

Josh McRoberts:

Danny's "The Gift" (given to us by all the teams that passed on him).

Diener is "Ballboy"

McBob
I have no idea what you're talking about, and clearly, neither do you.

Jesus. All of those nicknames (minus T-Murda, which is fantastic) really suck.

For Rush, lets just call him Brush. That's all he's earned thus far.

Let's not forget:

Granger- "Grangerous"
McRoberts-- "McBob"

Jamaal TInsley-- "The moody, apethetic, self-centered point guard with a checkered past who, without remorse, consistantly placed himself and teammates in bad situations to the detriment of the team's image sacraficing its loyal fan-base" --- Is that too long?

I've always loved Hee-Haw for MDJ. I'd like to take credit for coming up with it as well. :)
