Re: 5/2 - 5/8 Game Discussion Thread
I've dropped HeyGod from OS, But Everyday Johnny is staying for sure, because it's something Powell and Sutton themselves say. MVPrado is a Talking Chop thing, and MMMBop...I just like MMMBop as a nickname for a guy who's name is "Hanson"
Do you hate "Mac" and "Gonzo" as well? And I assume you call Chipper "Larry"?
Mac and Gonzo are normal nicknames, and when is the last time anyone called Chipper Larry?

Just checked, and yup, it was after the Brewers series (May 10th) where we swept and went on to lose only 4 games than month.And may thy spirit live in us, Forever LSU

From here on out, when the Braves play the Philz (err, Phillies) or you are engaging in a Braves-related conversation, I'll drop the nicknames.

He gets called Larry everywhere the team goes...here in SD last week people were chanting, "Laaaarrrryyy...Laaarrryyy" just like everywhere else."People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring." - Rogers HornsbyComment

Re: 5/2 - 5/8 Game Discussion Thread
I can understand that. I know when it was let out that the LSU football team gave players uniform nicknames (Initials+ Number; PP7, RS10, SR34, KS11, so on so forth) and LSU fans started using it, it kinda got aggravating to non-LSU fans, but it's just different strokes for different folks. I think it attaches a kind of endearing (or, not so endearing) association to a player and is somewhat and honor that a players gets a nickname, but it's easy to see how others can be against it when people sometimes have no idea who you're talking about.
From here on out, when the Braves play the Philz (err, Phillies) or you are engaging in a Braves-related conversation, I'll drop the nicknames.
kapeesh?I was just voicing my displeasure with them. Doesn't mean you should drop it. But if you do - my man

Really? I literally never heard anyone refer to him as Larry unless they are talking about how Chipper isn't his real nameEagles | Phillies | Sixers | Flyers

It's just standard heckling though. You WILL hear it in Citi, where Chipper/Mets can be related to a Reggie Miller/Knicks type deal.And may thy spirit live in us, Forever LSU

Re: 5/2 - 5/8 Game Discussion Thread
It gets chanted in opposing ballparks all the time...not so much in later years I don't think, but it used to be all the time. I think Shea was the worst...they might have even started it."People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do.
