David Villa can't be anything else than BATMAN !!
Sean Johnson The Incredible Hulk ! A beast who turns Green like his goalie wear !
John Stertzer The Candy Boy , or Stertz till it hurts , or Mr 15 minuets .

I'm not certain if you want the explanation to Candy Boy. And I'm kind of scared to find out what Mr 15 Minutes means.

I was afraid to ask, but did anyways in the off chance they're not as bad as my gutter of a mind thinks

I'm pretty sure that Slosh was a reference to his alcoholism.

I'm pretty sure that Slosh was a reference to his alcoholism.

I coined it. And then realized after the fact that it was more evil than I intended. So I did what you'd expect. Pointed out that I definitely didn't mean it that way and then used it anyway.

It was just an unfortunate accident.

Wow. I didn't even know about that. Brings new perspective to things like seeing him with his kid during the anthem.

thank you for the... colorful explanations! I figured most of them, but wanted to double check instead of assuming - they've been added to the list

is that the true meaning? thought it was for his poor movement/footwork - should I update the meaning or remove it all together?

I didn't want to throw you under the bus

For Herrera, Daddy Yangkee. I think it's pretty cool, I think it was one of the writers on Hudson River Blue who started it first.

thanks! added!

No - the meaning was he spills everything.

Like "Flappianski".

As I said, the drinking connotation was accidental. Or at least not conscious.

You try to coin a nickname for Josh Saunders that reflects spilling balls and looking goofy and do better than "Slosh". Shit isn't easy.

 

[Midas Mulligan]

I think PV is because we're all lazy and don't want to write Patrick Vieira. Not a nickname.

We could call him HPV, Hysterical Patrick Vieira, because he puts out lineups that are bound to give our results cancer.

Btw, this is a joke. I am not advocating this for the list.

But while we're at it, I think the main list should indeed be updated to explain Slosh is about spilling the ball.

Also, we could maybe make Pir-NOOOOOO!!!! official. Another no explanation necessary.

 

[Midas Mulligan]

I've seen a Wine Em Dine Em 69 jersey in 2015. It's a nickname.

If Tommy Mac from West Nyack is allowed then surely Angelino's is too.

Also move to strike both of these as being neither nicknames nor entertaining or insulting. They are more like chants than names. Let lion start his own damn "chants or phrases that I personally Identify as nicknames" thread. Just give 'em the red from this thread!

It's too good of a piece of club history to let those travesties stand next to some of the genius of others, like BAJ ( BxLio91 - come back btw. )

I updated the list for Saunders and Pirlo. Will keep the discussion open about Angelino and Tommy before striking them from the list.

Thank you. I have returned.
