Yeah. It's like humans can't make up nicknames; that's unnatural. Nicknames just spontaneously appear in nature and magically manifest themselves onto the objects to which they refer.

Nicknames are for children’s and true fans.

And therein lies the problem. If we wait for Holthus to come up with something, we are going to get the most bundle of sticksy nickname imaginable.

"Chiefs Kingdom"

Yep, I rest my case.

Lol you should know what I mean. You can't just be like "ok, let's pick a nickname!" Nicknames are earned and repeated by people "naturally" meaning not being forced, and then it becomes the nickname.

I think that is why Legion of Zoom actually works....if you take the average 40 time for our WRs and RBs, I believe I read somewhere on here, they clock in at 4.39. Its crazy to think that Sammy Watkins is considered slow at a 4.45.

Coyote 07-22-2019 05:55 AM

Call signs (nicknames) are natural like guys said to stick. Also good ones are 1 or 2 syllables and plays on last names or memorable acts. But the 1 rule: you can not choose your own.

For this group, some play on speed attacks of course but with a Chiefs/ Indian theme that rolls from the radio play by play. The Group aspect, makes it goofier. Different attack angles/routes/timing with speed. Swarm Tactics theme is my inclination. “The Swarm” just doesn’t quite fit but is the path I’m thinking initially.

''Legion of Zoom" is about as unoriginal as unoriginal can get. I saw "RPO Speedwagon" on another Chiefs site. Not a copycat and highlights both the run pass option offense that PMII is so effective at and the speed of his receiving options.

Kiimo 08-06-2019 02:31 PM

RPO Speedwagon also is a dumb thing to say, sorry legion of zoom rolls off the tongue and that's all that matters.
