Der Kommissar 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2005 Andre "Red Light" Racicot is one I have always enjoyed. Of course, it would suck to be a goalie and have a nickname like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crimson Platypus 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2005 Yeah, it's Round, and it also rocks, not the best though. Magic is the best. It's practically replaced his name. I bet there are people who think that is is real first name out there. Or at least if not that, people that don't know what his first name actually is...

Special K 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2005 "The Juice" is a classic. I sorta liked "The Nasty Boys" too. I also like "Charlie Hustle", but WTF was the Charlie about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dangerous A 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2005 Earvin "Magic" Johnson Magic might as well be the man's name. Also, because I am a Redskins fan, John Riggins was nicknamed "Diesel" before Kevin Nash was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masked Man of Mystery 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2005 I always liked Michael Jordan being called "His Royal Airness", Larry Legend(Bird), Tom "Flash" Gordon(I swear I saw game where he was listed as Flash Gordon), and some MMA fighters have neat nicknames, like Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic(which he got because he was/is part of a Croation anti terrorist group), "The Gracie Hunter" Kazushi Sakuraba, Murilo "Ninja" Rua(sometimes he's introduced as Murilo Ninja), "The Iceman" Chuck Liddel, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson, and my personal favorite, "The Axe Murderer" Wanderlei Silva Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
