"The German Line" Knickname thread.

[Fishy]

um, no.

jleves is an insensitive buffoon.

What about the Fourth Reich? They haven't ruined that one yet, have they?

Gentlemen, there is now a remote possibility that we will have a team on the floor at some point comprising 3 players who are German citizens. It goes without saying that we need a nickname for that line. Please contribute an offering here:

An obvious, but lame one, would be: Blitzkrieg Line.

My initial offers would be - Deutch Boyz - (pronounced "Doych") - Berlin Bombers - Hysteria from Bavaria - The Krout Rout -

My favorite is - The Rhine Line.

Nicknames need to be catchy, so how about some combination of the above such as the Blitzkrieg Bombers?

Since only two of the 3 are from Berlin and the Rhine is nowhere near Berlin neither of those make sense.

Now if they could only add two more Germans we could call them the Fahrvergnügen Five. I guess we could call them the Fab Fahrvergnügen. Or if JC puts them out there to draw offensive fouls we could call them the Fahrvergnügen Floppers. If they run the floor well how about the Fahrvergnügen Flyers? The one problem with using this word, it's hard to type that darn umlaut (ü).

Okay, I'm done.

Sieben Acht Gute Nacht

Ja Ja Ja Was ist los? Was ist das?

Seven Eight Good Night

Yes Yes Yes What is up/happening? What is that?

We're Americans. You really think people know how far from Berlin the Rhine is?
And, it doesn't have to make sense - it has to be cool.
For example, when Rafferty, just once, called Henefeld the "Gaza Stripper," it was not relevant that he didn't grow up in or near Gaza.

Fahrvergnügen Five.

Dude. Come on. Way too much focus on "making sense" and not enough focus on "cool."

If Wolf doesn't pan out, we might be the Bundt cakes.
