You might want to consider just throwing your computer away.

Hmmn, have we ever hanged someone before the season? If not someone should bookmark this thread.

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..........
 
Has anybody thought of "Rock" for Rakim Lubin?

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?

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!

this thread has gone from "dear Lord why did I click on this" to 'hilarious' well done.

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.
 
I find myself in unwilling to post the bad nickname that first occurs to me. And laughing in spite if myself. These last days before the season starts are a strange time when I lose sight that I used to stay away from May-October. Best for lining up my Ignore list in advance. Still a few to add.

Great first post...but your handle at a quick glance:eek:

This may have unintentionally become my favorite UCONN nickname of all-time. It makes absolutely no sense, which is the exact and precise beauty of it. Here's to whatever cult following Amida "My In-Law" Brimah may bring!

The best one was the guy, in all seriousness, suggested the Reach Around Bandit for Napier.

You need to Catsup on your basketball history. You were probably thinking of Dijon 'Mustard' Thompson, who famously covered Channing "French" Frye in 2005.

The interesting thing is that if DHam had made the McDonald's game, he could have been a Ham Burger boy.

This thread keeps topping itself. Please tell me that nickname was not seriously proposed. And while you're at it, make way for MY IN-LAW...
