Conn Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Lumberjacks ... Huh? What does that have to do with being gay? "Gay" isn't a synonym for "stupid", "dumb", or "lame". Thought that phase ended about five years ago. You're allegedly 44 years old. Use your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought that phase ended about five years ago. You're allegedly 44 years old. Use your head. I think it's that the first image that pops into most people's heads when the word "lumberjack" is used is the old Monty Python sketch about gay lumberjacks.

Conn Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 OK I vote for fairies... better? Fairies like the little winged Disney creatures, or fairies as a synonym for gay people? There's a difference, and I'm not trying to be a dick. The original comment just really makes me think you're one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gortiz Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 They don't deserve anything till the end of the season IMHO. how about..."The let's wait until they do something to deserve a nickname gang" has a nice ring to it, huh? What's the infatuation with giving every player and unit a nickname? At what age does caring about nicknames become passe?!? How about the haven't done **** yet line? Nicknames DO NOT have to be earned ... what the hell is that nonsense? I'm pretty sure the Hogs were the Hogs before they one a super bowl right? i thnk they were named the hogs before they won a damn thing. nobody waited for George Herman to hit 60 before they called him the Babe ... The Over The Hill Gang was called that I'm sure before they did anything earth shattering ... The Smurfs? they were small at first, not really that good, until after the nickname. i'm sorry, but our generation SUCKS when it comes to nicknames cause we got it all wrong and frankly, nicknames are not for surbanites like us to come up with. we just don't have it in us. i got a great buddy from buffalo and ALL of his family and friends have nicknames ... got another buddy from Pittsburgh and all of his friends have nicknames. NOVA stiffs like you and me just don't get it. its a working man's thing, its a blue collar thing ... and frankly i'm jealous! back in the day they had wilt the stilt, the kid, Double X, the glide, manos de pierda, the broadstreet bullies, etc.etc. now we got A-rod and D-jax ... pitiful!

NOVA stiffs like you and me just don't get it. its a working man's thing, its a blue collar thing ... and frankly i'm jealous! I don't even know where to begin. Your entire post is absurd. First of all, YES, nicknames must be earned or otherwise warranted. No one is saying they have to one (sic) a super bowl first, but they ought to play a few regular season games, don't you think? Every example you give fails to support your position. And who says nicknames aren't for suburbanites? For that matter, who are you calling suburbanites?! (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Brett81 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 How about we knickname John Beck "Rain Man" if he wins the starting job and call the oline "The Gutter"...and the receivers "The Rain Drops"... I mean cuz seriously, Rain Man practically bankrupted a casino...and he was a re-tard. Bet on Beck this season and you could possibly bankrupt a casino too...and you don't have to be a re-tard. My only other suggestion would be to call the entire Redskins roster, "The Knicknames". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
