Why don't we actually let him play a down first?

No. No it doesn't. At all.

Unless you're 19 or younger.

Or own an Ace Hardware.

To be fair, every RB that we've hyped has had the same treatment. "Guys let him play a down first!"

The result is always the same.

Really?

You want to rethink that before I provide an example or two to the contrary?

About what? I don't think anyone is saying DH won't be good. We're just saying how incredibly stupid it is to manufacture bad nicknames for our star players. That won't change once the season starts.

ALSO Nicknames hardly get started here on internet forums...usually in the weight room or on the practice field buddy.

I'm guessing you don't know the background on the Tiger Droppings-Honey Badger relationship. Whether true or not, it launched their whole board into a nickname-generating frenzy, hence why we respond with "we're not LSU" when this stupid shite comes up.

If a guy brings in a name or has one given by his teammates, that's different. Trying to force it on a message board is almost always going to end in retarded disaster.
