DEROGATORY SPORTS NICKNAMES YOU GIVE OTHER TEAMS

Posted on: February 9, 2008 7:08 pm
 

All right, let's try to keep this PG-13 rated (or milder), or use subtle asterisks or other such number-shift symbols.  What do you like to call opposing teams that you don't have to necessarily hate, but have to give them goofy to downright rude nicknames nevertheless?

And don't anyone get too defensive about these nicknames when it's about your team.  It's all in fun, no harm intended.  I grin when someone mentions the "Jail Blazers", because, well, it was pretty much true at one point.  So let's just shake hands, and come out swinging.  And buy each other drinks afterwards.

Let the fur fly!

DEROGATORY SPORTS NICKNAMES YOU GIVE OTHER TEAMS

I've heard almost all of these before.  Some I've always liked were the Pissed Ons (Pistons) and, as mentioned, The Bungles (Bengals).  My sister likes to call the Denver Nuggets the "Butt Nuggets"; I prefer to call them Chicken Nuggets.

I'm surprised to see someone else call the Jets the Jest.  I'm sure there's someone else besides me who calls their coach "Mangina".

Mangina is classic. As for college basketball, we all know the dookies, dook, puke, pukies, and their Koach Rat K, Rat Face, or Dr. Flop.

Green Bay "Fudge" Packers


Heh.. reminds me of an episode of "In Living Color" where the two gay dudes were discussing how much they liked football (for obvious reasons), and that they liked teams like the Oilers and the Packers.  And guys with names like "Dick Buttkiss!" LMAO!
