Ruby Noon got me to thinking. NFL players lack the great nicknames of the past. So here is a list of a few that I came up with. Feel free to add any you come up with in the comment box.
Marshall "I don't give a" Faulk
Neil "Nice" Rackers
Matt "Walk the" Leinart
Champ "Barnum and" Bailey
Trent "Deal or No" Dilfer
Demarcus "Tupper" Ware
"T-"Rex Grossman ...or Rex "My passer rating's" Grossman
Laveranues "Stocking full of" Coles
Joe "Around the" Horn
Marc "Battle of the" Bulger
Leonard "Chicken" Little
Shawn "Eat,drink, and be" Merriman
Philip "Rolling on the" Rivers
Dominic "The long and winding" Rhodes
(Bare with me. The spacing got messed up.)
Marvin "The tortoise and the" Harrison
Kellen "I'm on a team that keeps their number of" Winslow
Larry "H to the" Izzo (a little Jay-Z reference)
Randy "A rolling stone gathers no" Moss
Shaun "Of the Dead" Alexander
Ron "The not so great" Dayne
"Hanging" Chad Johnson
Dwight "Nothing comes for" Freeney (and neither does he apparently)
Jeff "Baby Got" Backus
So there you go. Add on to the list whenever you want.

Not cool AdamLee, I had at least 3 of these written down for my next argument in the throwdown with Ruby Noon (which you commented). Now I can't use them without having "stolen" them.
