Fan-given nicknames is how you end up with sh*tty ones, like "A-Rod". Lame. In no particular order, some of my favorite nicknames of all-time across American pro sports, all of which I believe were either teammate or sports writer driven. And many/most of them were great at least in part because there was a cool story behind each of them: Babe Ruth: "The Great Bambino" and "The Sultan of Swat" Ted Williams: "The Splendid Splinter" and "Teddy Ballgame" Muhammad Ali: "The Greatest" Joe Namath: "Broadway Joe" Ken Griffey Jr.: "The Kid" Julius Erving: "Dr. J" Honus Wagner: "The Flying Dutchman" Reggie White: "The Minister of Defense" Walter Payton: "Sweetness" Stan Musial: "Stan the Man" Hank Aaron: "Hammerin' Hank" Frank Thomas: "The Big Hurt" Red Grange: "The Galloping Ghost" Deion Sanders: "Prime Time" Dick Lane: "Night Train" Thomas Hearns: "The Hitman" Willie Mays: "The Say Hey Kid" David Robinson: "The Admiral" Marshawn Lynch: "Beast Mode" Pete Maravich: "Pistol Pete" Randy Johnson: "The Big Unit" Pete Rose: "Charlie Hustle" Karl Malone: "The Mailman" William Perry: "The Refrigerator" Joe Greene: "Mean" Joe Greene Hakeem Olajuwon: "The Dream" (and his signature move, "The Dream Shake") George Gervin: "The Iceman" Oscar Robertson: "The Big O" Larry Bird: "The Hick from French Lick" Kobe Bryant: "The Black Mamba" Allen Iverson: "The Answer" Gary Payton: "The Glove" Robert Horry: "Big Shot Bob" Ed Jones: "Too Tall" Tim Duncan: "The Big Fundamental" Calvin Johnson: "Megatron" Joe Montana: "Joe Cool" Ken Stabler: "The Snake" Pablo Sandoval: "Kung Fu Panda" Darrelle Revis: "Revis Island" Charlie Whitehurst: "Clipboard Jesus" Didn't know most of them good info thank you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
