The Official Greg Oden Nickname Contest

Whats up y'all.

As time has gone on, one thing I have noticed about Greg is that he does not have a nickname. I know some of you are saying that we need to wait till he actually plays a game, but we are not going to. The Official Greg Oden Nickname Contest begins NOW!

So here is what you win if we deem your nickname the winner. For local Oregon residents you will receive a pair of 300 level tickets to the game of your choice, and non residents will receive an Official BoomShakalaka shirt!

All nicknames have to be submitted either on the The Official Greg Oden Nickname Contest post on BoomShakalaka.org, or under the post at the Yardbarker. All entries have to be in by the 20th of March 2008.

Here is some inspiration for you all!

I like "The Dude"

Greg the Ripper.
Get it?

no......help me out

rip city. not funny when you have to explain it i guess.

nah nah still funny...................thanx

Good one keep them coming

Thunder G.OD?

Big Pink? No, no, no, forget I mentioned it.

Big Pink.....lol

The BioDiesel?

nice!

Doctor Smooth

well seeming as ODIN was the chief of the viking gods might as well just call him ODIN. or if you want something a little more catchy ODIN also is the bringer of victory. just laying it out for you to play it out

Big Odelicious. ... tasty

Greg "forget the drama, dunk on ya mamma" Oden, bieatch

G-Den or something like Kg

i mean kg's nickname

Gregory the Great

Hmmm......i tried putting Greg Oden's intitial together and it made G.O.....GO.......then the first thing that came up to mind thinking of "GO" is Thunderbirds.....you know "Thunderbirds are GO!" So in conclusion I would nickname him the "Thunderbird."
Unique and creativity right there!

Rookie of the Year

The Odenator... Or "Balue" like the big bear from the Jungle Book. He was always happy like Greg.

The odenator or Greg " Babyface" Oden

Hahahha, "Babyface".

***WINNER****

it's gotta be Babyface....

Gee O-deezy

Chuckles...for the big childish grin he has.

Greg "The 40 year old dunkin" Oden... uh huh you know what i'm talkin about..you love it.

a'la 40 year old virgin

Greg "Big Sophistication" Oden

Rip City Giant

Dude don't jinx portland with a reference to the city in his nickname. God forbid he leaves the City of Roses, but his nickname has to follow him wherever he goes.

These are all great guys, everyone gets the thumbs.

I still like "The Dude"

Sorry but The Dude is terrible. Not only is it kind of a rip off of lebowski but EVERYONES NICKNAME IS DUDE (women: see dudette).

I just thought of this. In a few years, they might be calling the Rose Garden "The Garden of Oden." It's a lot better than "The Garden of Zeke."

Ohhh I like that one. The Garden of Oden

that tall maid from addams family.... lurtch!!!
Lurtch is the winner................

Lurtch was a butler, not a maid... c'mon

Lurtch was a butler, not a maid... c'mon

Well with the intials G.O. if u say it out loud it sounds like (geeo) like the car geo metro. Which is a really small car and sense he is big he should be named after something small so The GeO.

I still wonder if the ball slipped out of his hand on that dunk or did it just hit the back of the rim.

Thunder God

tiny

young gergory

The Odenocrat. He can be The Preisident, (I 'd rather be The Pope).

Doctor Teeth?

These are great guys, keep this stuff up.

Thumbs up for everyone.

It looks like Buckeye sports already had this contest and their winner was "the Odenator"

New league New Name, good ones there as well

I'm gonna have to put my vote in for the BioDiesel. He's a big dude that will dominate like Shaq (aka the Diesel) and Portland is known (somewhat) as a green city so BioDiesel works well.
