Nicknames

by molitorfan on May 24, 2007 11:31 AM CDT

Since it is an off day and we need a light and fluffy topic to get us feeling good before a long weekend, here it is. These are the nicknames that my girlfriend has created for selected Brewers over the past two years. Feel free to add any others that your significant other or drinking buddy has come up with.

Prince Fielder = Chunker
Geoff Jenkins = Favre
Derrick Turnbow = Muppet
Corey Hart = The Scary Looking Guy
Francisco Cordero = Piggy
JJ Hardy = The Hot Guy

Former Brewer
Carlos Lee = Turtle

Some notes: Maybe Yost doesn't play Hart as much because he also finds him scary looking. Also, it took me about two weeks of explaining as to why the Brewers had to trade away "Turtle" last year.

I use this one

Bill Hall = That guy that slept with my wife's engaged friend

That always illicits a quick retort from her. "She was on a break and had to work some thing out!" Ok.

Bill Hall did that too?

If I had known, I would have left his baseball card on the nightstand for him to autograph.

Dude.

I think sleeping with Bill Hall should be a free pass, like, say, Scarlett Johanssen.

Couple of suggestions

Prince= Chubsy (thats what I was screaming everytime he came up last year)
Counsell= The little windup toy (batting stance)
Hart= Ugly Baby (kinda looks like one)
Graffy= Graffininout and Gargamel
Corey Koskie= Lumberjack
Dave Bush= The eyes of Malkovich

That's not the Chirizo, It's Enrico Polazzo!
