PrintSo, many of our players, and a couple of coaches, have great nick-names (Orton, Grossman, Lovie, , but I haven't heard a good one for our prized running back yet...
I'm not creative, so can't contribute... but we have the most intelligent and creative fans: so whaddya think??? What would be a proper nick for Matt Forte?
I am adding this sentance to aceive the 75 word requirement for a Fan Post.

"Tulane Tornado" is better

True.
I just didn’t want to say it myself because of the whole Katrina thing.

Im from Louisiana,
And that didn’t even make me think of Katrina…lol. Maybe because Katrina was a hurricane, not a tornado…

You can't force a nickname
Thank you,
these bumblefucks think the Sox are going to trade Dye. I said I would cancel my membership on here in martyrdom of Dye being traded.
Oh, okay then.
Thanks for the head’s up.

I work with a guy named Tyler
he has a huge head. I call him “Toddler”. Too sublte for most, but I like it.
I always thought that Lovie’s nickname for Vasher (the interceptor) was lame. I hope he doesn’t start calling Forte “The Converter”. Could be the kiss of death.
The funny thing about Vasher is...
I have a friend who says stupid things all the time. And that same year, he didn’t know what a CB was and was referring to Vasher and called the CB you know the interceptors. We all started busting up laughing because he had know clue what the position was. Every week for about 4 weeks we would mock him calling every position on the field something stupid, like the runner, the thrower, the tackler, etc. Then Lovie calls, Vasher the Interceptor and we all about choked on our Skittles.
He still thinks he was right of course and I am still ticked at that knickname.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Lol
Yeah, I like that one!

I could see him checking in to a hotel under that name... lol

Respect
In a Cartman voice: Matt “Respect My” Forte
If things came easy, then everybody would be great at what they did, let's face it.

Not a juker though.

Ok let's have a little more respect of Emmitt!!
Matt is a great running back but he has not yet proved himself to be in a league with Emmitt and some of the other greats yet.
I know.
He’s a Gator. I’m saying he runs like him and he wears the same number…

Before he went to OU, his family nickname for him was All Day, or AD. He kept the nickname when he signed there.

pun
I have no good nickname for him but have gotten in the habit of saying “Another scorte from Forte!”
Hmm... Sounds kinda weird...
