LNBS: "Beast mode." **** you, Seattle
I realize this is my "DOLPHIN WEARING A FOOTBALL HELMET" moment because I've posted about this a couple times, but it deserves to be brought up again this week.
Seattle has a really unintelligent fan base. And I don't mean in terms of football. It's clear they're not deficient in that area. I mean in terms of intelligence and creativity. They have none of those two things. They've got a pretty good RB who runs hard. Good for them. They want to give him a nickname. Skittles is funny. But no, they want something TOUGH-sounding. What would do the trick? Here's what they came up with: Beast Mode. Is that from a video game? No, that's God Mode, which is far cooler, but it wouldn't be as accessible religious people, I suppose. Or a movie or something? Is that like what the Incredible Hulk is? It's not, is it? You just thought that would be a good name for him. I get that Lynch was unstoppable in that 7-9 year where he raped the Saints. That doesn't give you an excuse come up with a shitty fan name for him and then force everybody else to use it, too. Your stupid fan base couldn't **** that up any harder if they tried to come up with a scary name for their defense. OH WAIT THEY DID. Legion of Boom? Did you know that Houston Rockets fans had a name for Chandler Parsons? They called him Chandler Bang, like Chandler Bing from Friends. Why? Because, uh... Bang... he's really good at sports? Or something. Like you know... Bang! The sound you get from firing your gun in the air because Parsons just made a 3-point shot! Legion of Boom is worse than that. It's dumber than that. It's almost as dumb as Beast Mode. I just hired the same 8-year old that comes up with crap for your players to give Chiefs players some names. Here's what he came up with: Alex Smith: Iron Man Jamaal Charles: Speed Demon Dontari Poe: Great Wall of Pain Eric Berry: Really Really Good Football Player The Chiefs Defense: Joint Chiefs of Boom Go fist a cow, Seattle. |

I wasn't able to dumb myself down enough to make them as bad as Beast Mode.

And to be clear I'm in no way advocating we call him that. I just chuckled. |

They should just call him what he really is:
Ugly as **** human being mode. I mean, I know football players aren't all supposed to look like Tom Terrific; but Kurt Cobain post-shotgun may be a better looking person. He is pretty good at the foozballs though. And eating skittles. |

I think it's Beast Mode like the Transfirmers in Beast Wars..?
I could be totally off, though. |
