    Well, since everyone here is so facinated with nicknames, we have to hook Collier up with one. He has to have SOME memories of his three year NBA career to pass along to his grandchildren, right?

    A few suggestions:

    White Molasses
    The Minute Man (as in one minute of playing time per night)
    J-Coll
    Opie
    FrankenCollier

    The Collier Monument
    Big Dull Dud
    Not-so-slim Shady
    Lenny
    Monolith

    (Awww, what was that nickname from the big, dumb guy in Full Metal Jacket?)

    I thought some insider reports said his nickname was "Butchie"?

    Poor guy.

    Stay-Puff
    Anti-Hakeem
    Glacier
    White Yugo
    Private (Gomer) Pyle (the ref you're looking for, mr_gootan...)
    Mr. Softee
    Mr. NBDL

    Personally, I think we should come up with some (positive) badass names for him. Y'know, to help his confidence and all. If we gave him a really cool name, even if it doesn't fit him, maybe he'll start putting up 20/10 games for us. :) I'll start out:

    Terminator
    Mr. Explosivo
    Emperor Jason I
    Jason Voorhies
    Soul Devourer
    White Highlight
    Optimus Prime
    The Franchise, Part II

    Sadly, he really does look like Private Pyle from FMJ...

    Hmmm...The Houston Rockets meet Full Metal Jacket:

    Rudy: What the hell was that you just did, Private Collier!!!

    Collier: Sir, that was my turnaround jumper, sir!

    Rudy: A TURNAROUND, private Collier?!?! That was more like a Reacharound!!! I've seen midgets on rollerskates put up better jumpers than that!!! Why didn't you grab that rebound, Private Collier?!?!

    Collier: Sir, I forgot to box out, Sir!

    Rudy: That's right, Private Collier! You forgot to box out! If you can't clean the glass in an NBA game, maybe you're more suited to cleaning the glass of the skyscrapers in Greenway Plaza!!! What the hell do you have to say for yourself, Private Collier!!!

    Collier: Sir, I'll try harder next time, Sir!

    Rudy: No, private Collier!!! There will NOT be a next time, because you're riding the bench!!! You'll be so far down the bench, that you'll need to make collect calls to talk to Steve and Cat!!! You are the most pathetic excuse for a basketball player I have ever seen, Private Collier!!! You make Rodrick Rhodes look like a Hall of Famer, Private Collier!!! Get out of my sight, you pathetic waste of a human being!!!

    LOL! This is some funny stuff. I was thinking Gomer Pyle myself. Collier fits the profile perfectly- big, dumb, clumsy white kid.

    How about "Collier is making more money than anyone on the bbs"
    or Steve Francis intelligent wise makes Collier look like Einstein
    or
    Cat makes Collier's shot selection look like Shaq's
    or
    Collier may not be as talented as Cato but without Collier's in the league Cato would be writing children's books (he tried a real book but....)after he washes the NBA's dishes
    or
    Collier may not be a shooter like Bullard but at least he's not a Comets announcer
    or
    Collier may not be a TMo but atleast..oh wait..neither one of them has skills
    or
    Collier may not be Eddie Griffin but atleast he can bench more than Drew Gooden's jockstrap
    or
    Collier may not be as good as KT but atleast if he was...well we still would trade him
    or Collier may not be Moochie but atleast we don't have to worry about him jumping on the scorers table..he can't jump that high
    or
    Collier may not be Langhi but since he is white he will never live it down, he will be called dumb and goofy by everyone stupid enough to make generalization

    hate to think what the non-color blinded people are going to say about Ming
    JUST REMEMBER YOU DON"T HAVE TO BE WHITE TO BE A STUPID REDNECK, you just have to be stupid enough to be one.
