    OK, let's make all the suggestions now, and then make a poll to make it official. When the people have spoken, Tim better listens. :mad:

    "The Ones" and "M&M" seem to stick with me the most but it is hard to beat "chicken and rice"!!! Call them what you want as long as we win!!!

    Here are the good suggestions so far:

    M&M
    BigMac
    The 1s
    McDynasty
    Rush Hour
    Chicken'n'Rice

    After this thread finishes 5 pages, and gathers enough suggestions, I(or someone else) will start a poll and make sure what people's choice is. I am sure Tim is reading and I hope he does a marketing campaign based on this.

    In fact, I think Chicken'n'Rice is more like jokes than nicknames. It's funny, but I don't think it will become a legendary name. We had "Dream", but now "Chicken'n'Rice"??????

    BigMac is certainly catchy, but I wonder if it under-represents Yao. Yeah, he's obviously the "Big" part of the nickname, but "BigMac" kind of sounds like Tracy McGrady on steroids.

    It's too bad Boki isn't an All-Star. If he ever becomes one, or at least a household name around the NBA, we can stick with the McDonald's theme and go with:

    "Yao Mac and Boke"

    I've kind of felt the same way. Doesn't represent Yao enough.

    Looks like a good list to me to go into a poll with.
