    His name doesn't give you much to work with, but his number does.

    Agent Zero is taken, but I'm sure there's something there with the #0, if ya'll want to think along those lines...


    If Lyllard Skyllard came to town, I wound attend the show...

    Please, please, no!

    I was watching an Oregon game this year and saw that ya'll (or allegedly Snoop Dogg), have nicknamed De'Anthony Thomas the "Black Mamba."

    Really!?!?

    Please, don't continue the trend with "The Big O."

    It's already bad enough that every up-and-coming prospect wants to rock #23. If I see another tall, athletic player without any actual game rocking the #23, I'm going to be sick to my stomach...

    Give the man an ORIGINAL nickname!

    ...to his credit, allegedly Snoop Lion has been calling him that since BEFORE Kobe started trending this name. But I agree, I just threw it in there for the sake of comparing their early careers.

    What about "Hyphy"?!

    And Kobe jacked it from a movie. There are no original nicknames.

    Nonsense... we're talking sports, not movies.

    De'Anthony Thomas being the "Black Mamba" is akin to DeAndre Jordan being nicknamed "Air Jordan."

    I'm sorry,... it's just a shitty nickname. Thomas is good enough to have a nickname that is original to the realm of sports.

    It's like LeBron choosing #23. I never understood that one. If LeBron had chosen #85, or something out of the box like that, then everybody in the US would recognize that #85 equals LeBron James. The #23 number choice makes about as much sense to me as De'Anthony Thomas' nickname.

    He didn't choose it. It was given to him by Snoop Dog... and supposedly before Kobe had it. And like I said, Kobe jacked it from a movie. It was a stupid nickname in the first place for an athlete.

    C'mon... really?!?!

    Kobe is universally established in the sports realm as the "BLACK MAMBA."

    Wherever the nickname was derived is inconsequential, unless it is jacked from another sports star. You don't think that Snoop Dogg nicknamed him on the basis of Kobe?

    I mean, if Karl Malone's nickname, "The Postman," was derived from a movie reference, would it make it okay that everyone started calling Matt Barkley, "The Postman"?

    And you know what, Kobe just decided that was going to be his nickname. How fucking lame is that?

    From this point on, my nickname will be "Big Penis Badass Motherfucker". Please refer to me as that and only that.
