I like EDDIE EDDIE EDDIE or GRIFF OR GRIFFSTER or The Punisher! ------------------ Reporter asks "How close were you to the victim?" Shorty says,"Real close until the roofies wore off.

Eddie "I'm gonna knock your ass out if you don't pass me the ball Cuttino" Griffin.... Flows off the toungue easily, and I think it will describe the way he will play... ------------------ The Rockets Championship in 2001...Be-Steve-it

Caption for virtually every Pete Rose picture ever. -"Hey, Moe from the Three Stooges Called and he wants his haircut back." As for the Eddie Griffin nickname game- -Vlad the Impaler -Lucky -Three Fingers -Charlie Bananas -Catfish -The Eagle (conjuring up images of the graceful Olympic ski jumper from the UK...appropriately) -The Hardest Working Man in Show Business -The Velvet Fog -Elvis! ------------------
Elvis Costello a Rocket's fan? I never knew. That's great. Still, I have to say that I haven't liked much of anything since King of America. ------------------
gracias amigo!...NICE ------------------ Everybody has a little bit of Watergate in em - Billy Graham
"The Matador" could have been Charles Barkley's nickname, considering how he played defense ------------------ Mein bratwurst has a first name, it's F-R-I-T-Z Mein bratwurst has a second name, it's S-C-H-N-A-C-K-E-N-P-F-E-F-F-E-R-H-A-U-S-E-N
How about "Foolish", after the movie whose main character was played by another Eddie Griffin. ------------------ Mmm Queso.
Darn it. I was going to say that. "The Edge" because Eddie Griffin. Edg, with an e= Edge. The Edge. But you beat me to it. ------------------ The Highest Leapers in the NBA
Eddie needs a short, one word nickname, something like Slim. Then we'd have Wink, Cat, Slim, and T Rock. ------------------ Mmm Queso.
for what it's worth, a Griffin (also spelled Griffon, Griffen, Gryphon) is more than just a winged lion. The front half is the body and wings of an eagle, the rear half is the body of a lion. Some variations of the legend depict the beast as also having the tail of a serpent or dragon. Like this: ------------------ "I have no regrets except that I wasn't up to keep Randy from getting on that plane." --Ozzy Osbourne on guitarist Randy Rhodes
I am interested in hearing what Steve and Cuttino and the other guys on the team come up with for a nickname. I'm sure we will hear something from them before the year starts. ------------------ It's Clutch's City and we're all just living in it...
