Best Jets Nickname?

[Green Jets & Ham]

So which is the coolest nickname?

 

[ucrenegade]

I went with other mangold "goldilocks"

 

[AFA2017]

I went with other mainly because I like both Big Cat and Revis Island.

 

[hobson54]

i went with snacks

 

[jets82]

Revis Island because its true. 9 times out of 10, Revis will lock receivers down and their left on a island alone.

I kind of like Sheldon's college nickname which he still goes by as far as I know... "Boss Hog"

 

[HYATT™]

LOL, it's not even close.
A 350# fattie named "Snacks".
It's endearing, it's cute, it's also nasty, (he will tear yer head off and crap down yer spinehole to rid himself of all that bad cholesterol), it's funny, (picture Harrison munching on a Babe Ruth with one hand and the other in the dirt at the LoS, with chocolate smeared all over his face & hands), & it's FITTING above all else - because "snacks" are quick bites you dispose of in a few seconds, which he does frequently with opposing OL players.

Runner-up goes to "THOR" for Mangold, which I guess falls under "Other, please explain".

I had to go with Snacks also........ I was hungry lol

 

[Green Jets & Ham]

Snacks is the right answer, and yes, there is a right answer , but I voted for BIG CAT because its new and I like the way it just rolls off the tongue when he makes a play ....

THE BIG CAT!!!!

THE BIG CAT, BABY ... THE BIG CAT!!!!

Are you feeling it?

 

[HYATT™]

Snacks is the right answer, and yes, there is a right answer , but I voted for BIG CAT because its new and I like the way it just rolls off the tongue when he makes a play ....

THE BIG CAT!!!!

Too common.
There have been at least;
4 previous "Big Cat"s in the NFL
3 more in MLB
2 in the NBA
there's even a Slovakian tennis player nicknamed
"The Big Cat" - Miloslav Mečíř (1982-1990).

NBA
1.) Earl Francis Lloyd aka "The Big Cat" - (1950-1960 for the Capitols, Nationals, & Pistons)
First ever African-American NBA player.
2.) Jamaal Dane "Big Cat" Magloire - (2000-2012 for 7 teams from Charlotte to Toronto)
2nd ever Canadian All-Star in NBA history.

MLB
1.) Jim "Big Cat" Warner (Outfield & 2nd Base) (15 ancient minor league teams)
2.) Johnny "The Big Cat" Mize (1st base) (1936-1953 for St.L Cards, NY Giants, & NY Yankees)
3.) Andres Galarraga aka "El Gran Gato"/El Gato" or "The Big Cat" (1st Base) (1985-2004 Expos+ 8 other MLB teams)

NFL
1.) Ernest "Ernie" Ladd aka "The Big Cat" - AFL SDC, HOU, & KCC (1961-1968)
Ladd was an AFL 4X All-Star, 3X All-Pro, AFL Champion, is in the SD Chargers HoF, the Grambling U HoF, and the WWF HoF - for his post-football wrestling career.
2.) OT Larry Rayfield "Big Cat" Wright - DAL (1967-1980)
3.) OT James Otis "BigCat" Williams - CHI (1991-2002)
4.) DT Leon "The Big Cat" Lett Jr. - DAL (1991-2001)
Plus, wasn't there another DT "Big Cat" Williams or something, that came into the league about a decade ago with a lot of fanfare, until he turned out to be a "Big Pussy" as a DT?

NBA

1.) Earl Francis Lloyd aka "The Big Cat" - (1950-1960 for the Capitols, Nationals, & Pistons)
First ever African-American NBA player.

LOL that reminds me of this old SNL skit I remember, where they showed old black & white clips of the first black NBA player during African American Month, and he was just dunking on and dominating all of these little white guys who were about a foot smaller than him. It was hilarious.

haha another good example is if you watch space jam, the loony tunes watch an informational video on basketball after they challenge the aliens. And its like a black and white video introducing basketball as a new sport. Its essentially just a bunch of white guys moving slowly, taking awkward shots and missing them. One of those jokes a kid would never notice but they throw in for the parents

 

[marac]

Nobody seems to remember that Shaun Ellis was " Big Cat" also. Am i the only one??

This is one of the clips SNL played in that skit, it was supposedly his first ever game in the NBA, but they put their own spin on it which made it hilarious, like after the game they said Sweetwater had 112 Points and the other team had 60.

1st person I thought of was Sean "Big Cat" Ellis.... can we think of another name for Williams? I really liked Ellis. A good Jets player for many years.

Leonard "Boom-Town" Williams referring to the gold rush in California
or
Jungle Cat
or
Leonard "Wild-Cat" Williams (personal favorite!):dancing-cat-smiley-
or
Leonard "Low-Down" Williams

 

[sg3]

Dewayne "Kentucky Fried Fat Bust" Robertson is my favorite

And we really shouldn't leave out.......
