the baseball diaries
Remember these guys? Doug E. Fresh, Shugga Shane, Poser-Resop Choi, Deaf Cab for Curtis?
Now those were sme bad-ass nick names.
Angels nick-name time!! Let's get our contributors and readers alike to update our long-standing tradition of giving Angels players nick-names that only we would have a clue what they mean. But we can start with the simple ones and please remind me of obscure ones for Angels that are still around after all these years:
Weave it to Beaver; Dream Weaver - Jered Weaver
Magic - Ervin Santana
Gaybar - Erick Aybar
Fiasco - Alberto Callaspo (a rehash, I know, but seems fitting)
Mice Hair - Maicer Izturis
Howiewood - Howie Kendrick
More Alice - Kendrys Morales
Trum-Bone Mark Trumbo, my suggestion
0-4, "O-for-four", Vernon Wells
So that leaves a bunch that we need to decide on, or just start calling them something hoping it will stick. If I remember correctly, many of the names were the result of things happening in games (fiasco) or just random blurtings out (fat tire) so I guess anything goes?!
Peter "Bourgeois"?

Haha, this is fun.
Fiasco is a good nickname for Callaspo, or we can call him Collapso if we want to spice it up.
The guys on Halos Heaven call Aybar Admiral Akbar and constantly use the phrase "It's a trap!"
Dirty Dan is a popular nickname for Mr. Haren.
I'll have to think of some for others. LaTroy Hawkins is just begging for a nickname.
It's a trap! That's brilliant! I like collapso and dirty dan. Pujols is begging for the "rectum" reference, but how about "prince albert" and all the connotations...?
Bobby Wilson = The Bunny Boy
Haha.
