Coaches Knicknames

Unread postby vault3rb0y » Fri Aug 24, 2007 10:47 pm

Of course we all have coaches who give us special names for our "special" talents, abilities, or lack there-of. I just wanted to hear what everyones coaches call you, or if you are a coach, your favorite knicknames you have for certain kids. Ill start, and my knicknames range from the classic "slacker", to Yankee, New Yorker, "that other pole vaulter from Bryant", baldy, and the occasional "headcase". Ive heard great ones like Dynamo, Barney Rubble, and Seabiscuit. Got any good ones?

Samurai.

I have no idea where it came from, other than the fact that my name is Sami. So move the i and add in an ura, I guess. However, that was my name for four years at pv. :)
