Now we need a nickname for Garrett Gilbert

It's gonna be hard to beat Nucci Mane.

Why does a player HAVE TO HAVE a nickname? Most nicknames come from either something they did or or their style of play or sometimes coaches have a hard time with a name so they give them a nickname, but why do fans have to give a player a nickname?

Here's a news flash for you that nickname was due to something that happened AND it was started by announcers not fans. No actually I think it was one of the announcers who said special teams coach John Fassell came up with it but it wasn't fans.

Must you take everything so seriously? We're just having a laugh, and I don't think the player will mind at all.

I like GeeGee because it reminds me of my nephew using the "gg" gamer phrase as a way of saying the game is over before it's technically over. "Garrett Gilbert is starting? That's gg."
