Around SBN: The Most Dangerous Division in Sports

Official WCG Matt Forte Nickname Contest


The Bears are 4-3 heading into the bye week, which for many of us, leaves a hole in our weekly (daily?) routine of discussing strategies, injuries, our opponent and so on for the upcoming game. So, what better way to kill two weeks than participate in the Official WCG Matt Forte Nickname Contest. Jump to join in!

Star-divide

Forte's in the midst of his fourth season with the Bears, and so far this is his career year. As talked about last week, #22 is chasing history this year, and reaching 1,000 rushing and 1,000 receiving yards for the season isn't going to be easy, but he's got a heck of a chance. However, after four years as the starting running back for the Bears (and getting that bitter Cedric Benson taste out of our mouths), the man does not have a proper nickname!

So, the task is simple: post any nickname you have for #22 in the comments section, and if necessary, the reason or background behind it - hopefully we won't need a paragraph to explain a word or two. Any nickname you like, rec it; new nicknames and recs will be tallied until next Tuesday at 11am CST. The nicknames with the most recs will be on a poll next Tuesday at 3pm CST to determine Forte's new WCG nickname.

For some helpful info on Forte, feel free to scour his Wiki page, his official Bears roster page, or his Tulane player bio page (go Green Wave!). Also, if you need some help, here's a list of some of the most well-known NFL nicknames (although to be fair, on the list they have Jim Everett's nickname as Chris, so there ya go).

So let's make this happen! Nicknames like All Day, Ironhead, Night Train, Pocket Hercules, the Barbarian, Sweetness, the Bus, Cadillac, and the Nigerian Nightmare had to start somewhere, and Forte needs a proper one. Get to work, WCG!

His name is already descriptive or allegorical. I say he needs no nickname.

Forte is defined in the dictionary as “something at which a person excels; a strong point”.

As in “running the football and catching passes is his Forte.”

Or, “getting the ball to Forte isn’t always our team’s forte.”

He doesn’t need one, since “Forte” is portuguese (and possibly a buttload others) for “Strong” or “Stronghold”. BUT I don’t think it suits him that well, as he’s more of a finesse runner.

Rec'd for 'catch 22' and misspelling in your 1st post. Nice job.

So...I thought the nickname for the gamethreads/bars was already chosen...

By those drunkenly screaming at the TV when he juked 9 guys in a single jump cut.

Matt “F*cking” Forte

However, for when the ladies and children are around…

Matt “The Factor” Forte has a bit of a ring to it, I’ve heard people call him the Franchise but it doesn’t really flow well enough IMO.

Matt MoFo Forte

David in Maine came up with it in a game thread… It is my favorite so far.

Read the thread, my vote goes to 'Catch 22'

Someone suggested Smoothness, with the contract dispute I would offer up Bitterness.

Matt "Double" Forte

3 Reasons:
1. Music term for more than forte (another way of saying “fortissimo”)
2. He’s a double threat as a runner and a receiver
3. “Double” as in “Double-Double” (22)

Matt Forte's nick name should be....

How about " The Fort"
cuz thats what the Bears are gonna end up paying him if they dont figure it out soon!

by Ramo Geezus on Oct 26, 2011 10:28 AM CDT reply actions  

or better yet “Da Fort”

Matt "Taxi" Forte

He’ll get you where you want to go, but in the end you’re gonna have to PAY THE MAN!

Find out what the other team wants to do. Then take it away from them.
