raysox Posted July 28, 2011 Author Share Posted July 28, 2011 WAIT. I remembered the best.Jared Lorenzen.NicknamesDue to Lorenzen's considerable girth, he has been given a collection of nicknames, which include:"Jumbo Giant", "Fat Jared", "Quarter(got)back", "QBese", "Hefty Lefty", "The Pillsbury Throwboy", J.Load", "Round Mound of Touchdown", "Tubby Gunslinger","BBQ (Big Beautiful Quarterback)", "Battleship Lorenzen", "Butterball", "Lord Of The Ring-Dings", and "He Ate Me". Twinkie Monster was also a name given to him at the Dow Event Center by fans of the Saginaw Sting. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigmike Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Chipper JonesJust because it seems like Chipper is his real name instead of Larry. Check out my new NFL 2016 Series! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May be biased from me, but it totally fits him and his play on the field. Detroit Falcons (NABL) | Detroit Gears (UFL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thespleenenator Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 "Optimus Reim" for James Reimer."Soupy" for Brian Campbell.And Chipper Jones' first name is actually Larry? You didn't know that? I learned that from Backyard baseball when I was 7. Where have you been?And I don't think this thread is complete without Cool Papa Bell and Mitch "The Wild Thing" Williams. Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me. I cry tears.Chopping off the dicks of Filipino boys and embracing causes that promote bigotry =/= strong moral character.
