Christine Michael's Nickname....

[SouthSoundHawk]

Yeah, Nick Fury or Coffee Black...nothing Starbucks related.

The Thing.

I am one of those people that get bored with the English language and the day-to-day rigmarole. So much that I tend to alter proper names and assign nicknames that include a creative suffix to the names of those I encounter often. These suffixes follow the lines of a quasi biological/genus species/Grecian/botanical format.

I guess you could say I am a certifiable weirdo in that way, but over the years my nicknames have been embraced by friends and family who at times will encourage me. Thus, I have come up with one that might work for our new RB friend. Simple, and endearing.

I give you:

"Christinabis Micheali"

A board that is routinely terrible at nick-naming players doesn't like a player's nickname?

The irony is suffocating. (Really, it's laughing so hard, it's going to choke.)

Starbuck would probably be good in any other city, just that here we have a certain grudge against references to that company.

Although I think of Battle Star Gallatica when I hear that name and Dirk Benedict I think was the actor.

 

[TriCHawk]

Maybe it's Starbucks because he's strong and gives you the runs.

 

[Throwdown]

Well I hope it ain't because he's a traitor.

 

[dontbelikethat]

I actually like it. Probably gonna just start using it. Way better than RW3 I see tossed around. Then again, I drink Starbucks. :th2thumbs:

 

[Smelly McUgly]

I'm not saying that you shouldn't drink Starbucks because Howard Schultz is a terrible human being that should be shot out of a cannon and into the sun (though you shouldn't drink Starbucks for that reason).

I'm saying that you shouldn't drink Starbucks because it tastes terrible.

Also, that nickname sucks, but I'm sure something better will catch on soon enough for him.

how about "pristine christeeeeeen"

 

[Throwdown]

But it's pronounced "crist-en"

 

[Axx]

"BEST RUNNINGBACK NA"

 

[chris98251]

how about "pristine christeeeeeen"

Yeah he will look Pristine crossing the goal line against the 49ers this year, probably will have Pristine Jersey without a spec of dirt also doing it.

excellent comeback. about as intimidating as a runningback with a name like christine.

[12thMan1]

Christ-EN doesn't rhyme with Queen....so that's actually not a "good one".

 

[Evil_Shenanigans]

Piston Rhymes with Chritine... sort of.

BeastMode/Skittles, Turbo, and now 'Starbucks'.. Every one of our RB's has a nickname that's funny, Does anyone know if Michael Robinson has one?

It's Mike Rob, and Spencer Ware doesn't have a nickname yet.

 

[Basis4day]

No nicknames please. We don't need a nickname for everyone or everything. Double for rookies who have yet to play a down in a regular season game.

 

[AvengerRam]

How about "rookiewho'splayedonlyonepreseasongame"?
