I hate the guy, but "Lights Out" is not a bad nickname.

I like "The Minister of Defense," who is that?

There are no good nicknames anymore, other then Megatron and even that's just ehhhhhhhhhhh.

I agree with Ray. Oldschool players had to earn their nicknames. Todays players have monikers dropped on them because of potential. Going by that reasoning lights out is the only one that comes to mind for the current players.

Fantasy football is a game of nicknames around here, and the nickname I read for Percy Harvin inspired me to make this thread. List the nicknames you have for each player in case they're used around here, since I remember a thread like this from last year.

Percy Harvin - ''Purple Haze''
Calvin Johnson - ''Megatron''
Frank Gore - ''The Truth''
Skylar112
Andre3000- Andre Johnson
Super Mario-Mario Williams
1977Topps
Jonathan Stewart known as The Daily Show !

Megatron is prob my favorite. I know Chris Johnson names like CJ423 or something like that... the numbers being whatever his 40 time was. pretty interesting but too long for my tast of a nickname. His new one... Every Coaches Dream is pretty lame and bitterriffic.

I dont remember F.Gore being called the truth. He should be called the Knee Cap cause he has two fake ones in there now that seem to have made him better than he ever was before.

AP seems to have a few... All Day, Purple Jesus.

FWIW all the guys with the initials first name and shortened last names one are pretty lame to me. like, DWill, etc. seems like a trend these days.
