    I might be in the minority but what is the big deal with people so concerned and focused on giving out nicknames?

    Because just plain Smith is boring and Agent Smith is great and action packed

    John Doe is boring and Agent John Doe is amazing.

    Yawn

    That’s actually Tari Easons nickname from his family if I’m not mistaken. You can’t take another dudes nickname on the same team.

    Locksmith? Nah

    C'mon, nicknames are suppose to be badass. Dream, Clyde, Junkyard Dog, Jet, T-mac, Diesel, Black Mamba, His Airness, Sir Charles, The Beard.

    Usually they come after years and years in the league when finally something sticks AND the player likes it.

    It's The Jabberwock for me.

    FYI "The Jabberwock" is the feared creature. "Jabberwocky" is the name of the poem.

    Yeah I just can't get over the fact that a locksmith is more about defeating locks vs locking someone up.

    It is worse for me. It just reminds me of 'The Mailman' moniker for a player I don't care to think about.
