Best nicknames in nfl (past and present)?

[Badgerinmaine]

Bobby "Buttjuice" Johnson.

I'm not at all sure I wanna know how he got that one.

[Badgerinmaine]

"He Hate Me."

I am not sure about his real name. Is it Rod Smart?

Correct. Played on special teams with the Panthers for a couple years.

Yup, and in the XFL before that, where he got to have He Hate Me on his jersey.




Just thought of another favorite one from a while ago now: the Bengals' Pete "The Runaway Dump Truck" Johnson--described his fullback running style perfectly.

This one's easy...hands down:

Jeff Query, Packer WR from the late 80's to early 90's = WHITE LIGHTNING.

A real burner with no hands, but speed, for a 5'9" 170 pound white guy with a shitty mustache.

I remember as a young kid, my parents had season Packer tickets and some racist rednecks sat behind us holding up White Lightning signs, etc. as they got more drunk EVERY second of the game, really annoying and boisterous..... One time some fat redneck spilled a beer on my older brother who had warned him to keep his dumb mouth shut and my bro (who was a TE in college at the time) turned around a clocked him clean out. Security came in and kicked them out... and after a week or two, they must of got booted for good cuz Jeff Query's fan club was no more.

Still White Lightning was an awesome moniker for someone that just flat out sucked as an NFL player, yet could inspire such white trash to unite.

lambeau is the most racist/obnoxious venue ive visited in my 34 years of life

i wasnt surprised (and was actually a lil elated after gettn over the sting of the loss) tht moss "mooned" them

ive never understood white's hatred of black considering WE'RE the ones who have been oppressed, enslaved, lynched, disenfranchised, etc - how ironic

Having worked for a Wisconsin-based company I never witnessed racism in WI.

Having been to GB only once, I still have a hard time believing this racism sentiment.

And obnoxious? GB Fans are WORLD FAMOUS for their hospitality to visiting fans.

I just never agree with anything you post, MOBB. Guess I must be an obnoxiuos racist, huh?

Well been to over 50 games in GB...most often it's a very friendly crowd. Just my experience as a young'en (I'm white, not that it matters, but racism is just stupid and still see it rear it's ugly head). So I agree Mobb.

Speaking of rearing ugly heads, I thought you were done posting Tarlam? You explicitedly PM'd me as such?

[HarveyWallbangers]

I've been to 12 games at Lambeau, and I haven't heard any racist remarks.

[MOBB DEEP]

im not sayn its exclusive to GB (most stadiums ive been in are located in more urban areas) but i KNOW what i experienced in 03

and when i say obnoxious i dont mean towards fans of the opposition. im speakn about being repetitive with assanine remarks ("look there's edgerin james" b/c i had dreds - lol. its funny now but when i looked him and his boys dead in the eyes ther was contempt written all over his and his posse's face, wearing some gay hunting gear). im there with my skinny, sympathetic Queen so had to show restraint

and i think its a cultural thing (being so over-zealous); black folk have too many more-important/critical issuses going on in their lives to take a sunday afternoion game WAY too seriously

im not a cultural guru but ive had ALOT of experience dealing with both races; used to be called an OREO b/c of my frienships/speach/behaviors in high school and undergrad

MOST RACIST may be a loaded statement but no offense intended. kinda like trolls dont realize they're trolls, racists may not realize they give off that vibe IMMEDIATELY.....tone of voice, topics they choose to bring up. because i was raised to b accepting ive had to replay certain things in my head or be told by associates in order to realize i was insulted

usually it's the result of beer muscles b/c even though i smile and laugh alot im pretty buffed - lol

btw, spike lee said going to a game in indy was like going to a kkklan rally. im sure most white folks and euros like tarlam! wouldnt concur....

You know, this could really be taken out of context very easily.

Lambeau is the friendliest venue in Pro Sports.

You want obnoxious rednecks?

Go to a game in (in order of neckdom):

Buffalo - Serious drunks who start drinkin on Tuesday for the game. They've been angling for a fight all week and turn on each other if they can't find opposing team fans to jump.

Pittsburgh - See Buffalo

Cleveland - The lake people seem to be as high as they are drunk on booze, which makes 'em sneakier.

Philly - They don't have a jail in the stadium fer nothin'. Philly fans are their own breed and can turn dangerous at the drop of a hat Haven't been to a game in Philly yet, I'm just going by reputation.

Denver - They love them Broncos, but don't understand the game too well. So they act obnoxious at the wrong times.

Washington. Chocolate City, you think they'd be more urbane, but they get cranked up for football. These other towns I expected neck activity, but not among these white collar workers.


These first 3 towns are dangerous places to go to attend a game. They make my top 3 because I've actually seen people assaulted and shit in these towns at NFL games. In Denver and Washington there a lot of drunken asshole fans, but no assaults that I saw.


Thgem dirty looks are bothersome, but you don't need to bandage 'em up for a few weeks after.

Those dirty looks are bothersome, but you don't need to bandage 'em up for a few weeks after. I've never seen a jumping and beatdown at Lambeau. I have seen drunken fools there and guys I would have hated to be sittin' next to, but nothing like some of the dangerous venues across the league.

[Patler]

On the topic of nicknames... one of the best, based on the position played, playing style, personality, etc:

Craig "Iron Head" Heyward (also sometimes written as "Heywood")

Ironically, he died a couple years ago from recurring brain tumors at age 39.
He was listed at 5' 11" tall and weighing 260 lb., but reportedly weighed well over 300 lbs at times in his career and was normally in the 280-300 lb. range. His nickname came from his running style in which he who would try to run over people by spearing them in the chest or stomach with his helmet. It didn't matter how big they were, he tried to evade no one, and could never be convinced of the advantages in doing so. Put up decent career numbers (4000+ rushing yards), but bounced around to several teams for 11 years. Appeared in one Pro Bowl.

actually pretty good description of washington as far as the drunkeness. not out of touch 'necks tho..alot come from rural areas of virginia and maryland (a mere 45 min drive). the locals are serious, knowledgable fans for sure (like my barber!)

lol "neckdom"

im thinkn "All Day" may be the best

i really like when the nickname becomes part of their real names like magic in bball. white chocolate was cool too (i picked him to be a star! if only his jumper developed..)

Sounds a little like me as an 880 runner my sophomore year at Madison West High School.
Well, except maybe not the speed part.
