Buehrle>Wood Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I guess my post is more on topic here: I thought Hot Fire was deemed infinitely forever the worst nickname ever no matter what anyone could come up with. I'm not going to justify it with caps. Meanwhile Business as Rasual is the best nickname ever from Soxtalk even if it's non baseball related. I admit I had a hard chuckle over hearing Blowasavio. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 There have been so many bad one's. I'm annoyed with myself that I'm drawing a blank on all of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I think we should change the swear filters to change Belisario to Blowasavio, permanently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) I'd definitely put it in the top quintile of TUC's pantheon of humor attempts this season. Ronald Taco Belisario doesn't work, because that was Jorge/George Bell's nickname. Although maybe they could start a promotion with Chicagoland Taco Bells to give out two free tacos for each blown save...or for successfully converting saves...whichever one costs the least in terms of redemptions. Ring the Belisario is quite lame, since we already had Takatsu's Gong, which was awesome although vaguely racist. Hell's Belisario? Jelly Belisario? Yellow Belisario? (something having to do with the Civil War, when awols/runaway soldiers were termed "yellow bellied" cowards) Ronald Belisario Dancer Goggles DUIsario Edited June 25, 2014 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eminor3rd Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I thought my Felipe "Soggy Burrito" Paulino would have garnered more hatred, but I threw it out there in a gamethread during a Felipe Paulino start, so no one was paying attention.

Yeah, especially since Hawk can't decide how he wants to pronounce it. I think he needs to go back to the drawing board on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPN366 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Hot Fire is a reference to Chappelle Show, so I don't see how it's bad. Vague, yes. Bad? No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDF Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) Hawk has came up with many a great nicknames during his tenure as a sox announcer. and I enjoyed almost all of them. yessss oops I made a major mistake, I really thought this was about good nicknames.

2nd_city_saint787 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I don't really get the hate for el cañón. We knew it was coming after the Cuban Missile and Tank nicknames, but I guess if you don't like em all then I see the hate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eminor3rd Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 25, 2014 -> 09:38 AM) Now, if we started calling Abreu "The Canyonero," I would wholeheartedly support it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont hate el cañón, but i dont love it either. I think Hawk is forcefeeding it too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
