    Which nickname should I call Dion Waiters if the Blazers draft him. Since you will all be forced to see it in my posts, I figured I would give you guys the chance to choose.

    Dion Garçons actually has a nice ring to it.

    it's fun to say many times fast. I bet HCP could tell Batum to call him that.

    Juggler has too many syllables to be spoken quickly during a game.

    It should be noted that crandc will NOT be pleased if you choose to feminize his name as a pejorative.

    Maybe instead of Garcons or waitress, we could just call him feminine perjorative!

    Plus anytime you combine food plus odd verb in the "-er" form, you get a euphemism that sounds dirty.

    That was my thought too. You have to be fairly intelligent, which I am, and everyone here is smarter than me, so that's not a problem, and it screams demeaning to the individual

    If it were me, I'd scrap the whole democratic thing and go with executive fiat; don't let the unwashed masses screw with your instincts on a nickname.

    Hey MM--I voted Garçons, but if Soup Juggler will make you happy, then pretend that's what I picked.
