Meh, that's not bad, but I think we can come up better than that. How about The King Cobra? Kobe Bryant was the "Black Mamba", which is the fastest snake on the planet. The king cobra is one of the smartest animals on the planet, and the king cobra is also considered one of the most dangerous snakes. Parsons seems football smart with the way he goes after the ball, but he's also very dangerous to opposing QBs and ball carriers.
The Scorpion strikes hard and fast

I bet you wouldn't be surprised, after all, you worship at his feet and consider the ground he walks on holy. :rolleyes:

Do you realise how long it's been since we've had a LB of the potential that Parsons has? We don't know how his career will pan out, but his preseason game looked solid, and, speaking for myself, I am excited to see what he does. The nicknames I'm coming up with for him are animals (I'm a furry lol) that I think most accurately fit his style and are also intimidating.

Or maybe "The Rattlesnake". That's a Western type of Viper, and, of all the types of snakes, the Rattlesnake is one type of snake that would look like a cowboy if it was in a western.
Snickers because every QB that faces him will look like they could use a Snickers .

This would be what I think of when I see a rattlesnake in my mind pictured as a cowboy. I could also see this being Micah Parsons with how quickly a rattlesnake can strike, and how quickly Parsons strikes at QBs and at the ball.

No, I do not recognize anything about this kid that has not happened yet, that's all "potential" is. You are right when you don't know how his career will pan out. His preseason performance was limited in scope because it wasn't always against opponents' starters. As impressive as he has been, learn to observe with objectivity and understanding of what you are actually seeing. Only when he thrives among NFL starters and earns all-pro honors will he deserve the accolades he is receiving as a rookie.

Of course he has to learn things. He's a rookie. Still, I'm going to continue to be excited about him.

...and you are a silly person. Worship away.

I only worship Jesus. I am just excited about a rookie on our team. I've not exactly seen a lot of success with the Cowboys, you know. The best LBers I've ever seen on this team are DWare, Bradie James, Dexter Coakley, and Sean Lee. Thus, just the thought of what Parsons seems capable is exciting for me. I haven't actually seen a LB of even that potential on this team before.
