Can We Re-institute the Cool Names Poll?
« on: May 12, 2016, 08:39:34 AM »
Having Georgia on the schedule reminded me of Kentavius Caldwell-Pope, which of course reminded of the cool names poll that used to come out. Hopefully we can reintroduce that tradition this season.

Of course we can.   :-*  You guys just have to promise to participate.

And the coolest name ever was Lourawls "Tum Tum" Nairn, Jr.

Not even close.
Have some patience, FFS.

I didn't realize that Lourawls Nairn was Tum Tum until very late in the most recent season.

I heard people talk about "that guy named Lourawls at MSU" and then "Tum Tum from Michigan State."  Never put it together until late February or so.

Probably hard to institute a cool names poll when there won't be any games for 6 months  ;D

Fox Sports compiled Last years list for us. Tum Tum was in the final four.

Interesting from the Fox Sports list:  I didn't realize Cinmeon Bowers landed at Auburn.  Probably missed a thread somewhere.

If you go there roll your curser over the cougar in the upper left part of the screen
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.

Oh there's games going on.  And this name has always been one of my favorites.

Yeah, you must have missed the "Cinmeon Bowers" thread:

@JBBauer612
Milwaukee's Cinmeon Bowers, at 6'7", 280, is putting up unreal rebounding numbers for Auburn: 13.8 OR%, 35.1 DR%.

I think I knew a guy in college who went by the name Paulie Sausage on the weekends.
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.
