sorry guys, i thought some nicknames for our huskies was a good idea. Ill stick to making threads about what the best cheeseburger in ct is or maybe a thread about a hockey game score even though theres a hockey section, or a jersey number change for nolan or raftery trademarking onions etc
Cool, now you're getting it

Olliewood! for KO, opps KO is a nickname. He has two and many of the players have none, how is that fair?

How about RIP 2.0 for Hamilton?

Richard Hamilton is Rip 2.0. His father was the original.

Don't be intimidated by this bunch of imbeciles. Look what you've been able to do. You've taken the heat off of Pal regarding his Nervous Purvis thread and you've brought out a huge group of copycat killers (of nick names).

Also you've proven that those of us who doth protest to much..........

That use of a first syllable to create a nickname is genius. I think we could do the same with Ryan Boatright and just use his first syllable as well. I think "Rye" has a nice ring to it. When he's playing well, we can call it "The Rye Show".

And then in practice, when we assign defensive match ups, we can have "Ham on Rye".

Does OJ Mayo have any younger brothers?

On a serious note lets give our 2014-15 guys some nick names shall we?

Purvis the Nerveless
Ryan mighty mite Boatright
Phillip Trollin Nolan
Amida my inlaw Brimah

This is my first post (not even sure if I'm doing it right) so i'll wade in on something not so controversial:
-Rakim"Over the Coals" Lubin
-Amida"No Matter" Brimah
-Omar"And the Howlers" Calhoun
-Ryan"Sets the" Boatright
-Sam"The Hassle" Cassel
-Rodney"Speed Kills" Purvis
-Phil"Dirty Work" Nolan
-Terrence"Instant Energy" Samuel
-Daniel"Giant Killer" Hamilton

and there's no way I can top; Kentan"In Yo" Facey so I won't even try. Classic.

Maybe we should leave this up to Joe D for the time being?

You went a long way to get to ham on rye, but you sandwiched it in there.

OJ has a half-brother, last name Mustard. Plays baseball well and some basketball. The kid isn't a prospect as a hoops player, too much of a hotdog. Baseball-wise he's headed for the Grapefruit league.

Thanks for the setup. Please tip your waitresses!

That this board was able to turn this thread into something enjoyable is at least on par with the 2011 Big East and NCAA tournament run in terms of sheer improbability. Good job everyone!

Thats why im "the smart one", kind of figured it would be worthwhile. But in all seriousness though, I have had no feedback on Phil "Trollin" Nolan. With all of his photobombs I think its a perfect nick.
