A couple good ones in the Lamar thread, but I think there are MANY out there that merit highlighting.

My personal favorites:

- Playoff P
- Black Mamba (RIP): mostly b/c he gave it to himself as an homage to Uma Thurman
- Sanchize…I mean, c’mon guy
- the Big Aristotle, or anything implying Shaq isn’t a paste-eating level of stupid

They called Harold Miner "Baby Jordan." Unless they meant that he was a literally a shitty basketball player, they were way off on that one.

Steve "Psycho" Lyons. Not psycho at all. Got it by simply shattering a helmet. Was not psycho. Goofy but level headed. Plus, the pulling down the pants thing was pre-planned.

Babe Ruth was nothing more than a fat old man, with little-girl legs. And here's something I just found out recently. He wasn't really a sultan!

Johnny Football is a good nickname. He was Johnny Football at A&M no matter how his pro career panned out.

The Greatest

I don't really think that Phineas J Whoopies name belongs in that conversation.

Easily "Big Game James" Shields. The rays didn't win shit with him and he eventually cost you a prospect who.could be the only guy to all around match vlad jr in terms of total offensive production (if he can stay on the field, of course)

Sanchize is a good one, hated that buster.

Game Over - Eric Gagne. Sure he had one good season but didn’t sustain a career the way Rivera did.

Still remember his talking about not dunking as a way of preserving the life of his knees when he came into the league. Between him, Ellison and JR Reid that were drafted that year.. Man, that big man draft didn't work out.
