Excellent point!About naming... who came up with the stupid rhyming call names for the players?
Who could possibly take someone called "
Jester from Leicester"
seriously?!?
"
The Rocket" isn't bad... but why are so many so juvenile and pussified
like "
El Capitano" or "
The Sheriff of Pottingham".
Come on! Really people... let's get some honesty and drama into it....like, "
The Weasel from Wishaw"...
in UFC they call people like Liddell "The Iceman", or Wanderlei Silva "
The Axe Murderer"...
And what's in a name you may wonder... think who won the WC... not a "
Pocket Dynamo"...
it was a bloody "
Thunder from Down Under"!!!
Now some misguided people want to stick a gay
baby name on Anda Zhang... "
Zhanger".
He's young and vulnerable enough, don't you think?
He needs a call name to strike fear into the hearts of his adversaries.
Let's change his name and change the psychological effect he creates shall we....
from "Oh ya, I'm playing that little "
Zhanger" kid. I'll make him suck on my pacifier alright!" to...
"OMG I drew
him... he's going to
rip my throat out!!!"
May I suggest...
