Just my personal opinion.  It obviously has nothing to do with Frank the Tank's game, as he was an outstanding college basketball player and I'll be thrilled if he is even close to as good as Frank was, but personally I didn't like the nickname and I'll like it even less copying it off a Badger.

Hank or Henry works just fine for me.  If a nickname is required I'm fine with King Henry.  Or "the Locomotive" as Thomas once called him.

To borrow from another famous athlete with time in Milwaukee..... Hammerin' Hank.

Yeah that was my 3rd option as well (well, really my 2nd, but Thomas's nickname gets an automatic bump because, well, it's from Thomas).

Hank the tank is just God awful.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

King Henry 13 will be the Ankle Breaker.

Is "Eat our nuts, Bo Ryan" too cumbersome for a nickname?

I can dig it.

But just remember, he was too selfish of a player for Bo, so Bo backed off.  Duh.

That does lead us right to "The HANKle Grabber", which i'm sure some could get behind.
