EJ Henderson...

Star-divide

...needs a really good nickname. Please please please help out and give suggestions.

Adrian Peterson is Purple Jesus, perhaps the best nickname I have heard in a long long time, and I think it is only appropriate that EJ earns an equally awesome nickname. With any luck we, the fans, can get the announcers on TV and the local and national press reference EJ's new nickname.

What do you think? It's the least we can do for him after that sick tackle of DeAngelo last week. 

Make your suggestions as a comment below, and after we get a good amount I'll post a poll of the best for people to vote (or someone else can if they feel so inclined).

Seeing as how I'm initiating this nickname challenge, I'll suggest the first nickname (apropos of that DeAngelo hit): Brown Sugar. (If you don't get it, look it up on Amazon.)

hmmm

Well, we could go with something Viking-ish, like Thor’s Hammer, or just Hammer, but I’m not too sure about that, not too creative or anything. You could pick a bunch of nicknames like that: “The (something hard and vicious).” It would be appropriate but stuff like that’s been done. I like Brown Sugar better than anything like that. I will keep thinking on it though…

And I definitely agree on Purple Jesus, my favorite nickname. I normally just say All Day though, a little quicker to type, plus I also like that nickname.

In AP I trust

No gimicky nicknames needed!

It will be very soon when everyone league wide will hear his initials and know EXACTLY who is being refered to.

E.J. That says enough.

VikeGuru is a doofus!!

I agree. E.J is a nickname itself, he doesn’t need another.

How about...

“Jack-in-the-box”?
It seems that anybody that comes around the box with the ball gets jacked pretty bad by EJ.
Think about it: POP goes the weasel! LOL
hmmm, how about the weasel? LOL

ok, I know, I’m losin’ it now…
