Bradfords nickname

[85Sooner]

Cherokee Indian (native american)
Old OU mascot = little red
Sam Bradford 6'5"

Lets just call him "BIG RED" unless that is insensitive to anyone.

[Scott D]

insensitive? nah just dumb. :)

[achiro]

Cherokee Indian (native american)

Lets just call him "BIG RED" unless that is insensitive to anyone.
FYI, the drunkytown threads are usually Friday and/or Saturdays and usually over in the SO.

[OUHOMER]

I saw somebody on here call him Slinging Sam, I liked it

[The Maestro]

The best nicknames just happen...and cannot be forced.

Therefore, Big Red will not be accepted at this time.

Sincerely,

Crotch Rocket Maestro

[Frozen Sooner]

His Mom's name is Martha.
His Dad's name is Kent.

I say we call him Kal-El.

[King Crimson]

how about "Sam Bradford"?

[Frozen Sooner]

His momma call him Sam, I'm gonna call him Sam.

[The Maestro]

"I love a good T-Bone steak. I guess you could say I am just a 'T-Bone' kinda guy!"

[swardboy]

I was hopin' for "Eagle Who Flies High" or "Wind Passing Beneath Wings", but I guess Sam will do.

This_Can't_Be (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=165035658) real...San Bradford...and is he 27? no way...look at all the people who posted in the comments...funny

[HateTheWhorns]

Sam "JT" Bradford.

My grandfather played youth baseball with a man by those initials. He was from Prague, had some indian blood, and was considered a great athlete. ;)

[picasso]

His momma call him Sam, I'm gonna call him Sam.
he beat Joe Louisesessss asss!

[Animal Mother]

I saw somebody on here call him Slinging Sam, I liked it

I saw Jenni Carlson use that name in an article, so flush that one. Yes I read her "inventions". Don't judge me!!! I live in HELL...... I mean Texas.
Department of redundacy department.

[MikeInNorman]

Manufactured nicknames are.......well, they're Aggy, that's what they are.

[devOUt]

Not to be confused with a certain import car dealership.

[TheUnnamedSooner]

Bradford f-150

[StuIsTheMan]

Not to be confused with a certain import car dealership.


heh:confused: ...BRADFORD NOT BOMAR NOOB!

[StuIsTheMan]

Bradford f-150
how about f-350...cause that is what he is good for right...350 yards per game?


I GOT IT...TREEFIDDY!

[DrZaius]

how about we call him:

badmotherfu**erwho throwsagreatballandlovestheladieslongtimewhilenott urningtheballoverandhandingtheballtohisrunningback swhocanrunfastafterhemakes4readsbeforedecidingwhot othrowtheballtoforhismanytouchdowns

it's kind of catchy and has a nice ring to it.

[bstuff1979]

It could be said that Jenni Carlson stole the "Slingin' Sammy Bradford" from me. I will write high school football from time to time for the Oklahoma City Friday Paper (local nw okc weekly paper), and I worked full time as the sports editor in Bradford's sr. year at PC North. It made it more interesting to give some of the better players nicknames, I remember giving a big tailback at McGuinness the name "Mule-train" and a Casady kid was "Speedy Pete". I know for certain that I called Bradford "Slingin' Sammy Bradford" early on in the season, or it may have even been in the pre-season insert for the paper. So, you can wipe away the Jenni Carlson stigma.

[devOUt]

heh:confused: ...BRADFORD NOT BOMAR NOOB!

I was a NOOB when I was your size.

[StuIsTheMan]

again...heh:confused: ...and yes I did notice your join date...what finally make it back to the library to use the computer?:D

[tigepilot]

I can't stop calling him 'Bradshaw' since Sat.

[King Crimson]

or it could be said that "slinging Sammy" was stolen from Sammy Baugh.

[tommieharris91]

Bradshaw.

[The Maestro]

AP

[bstuff1979]

or it could be said that "slinging Sammy" was stolen from Sammy Baugh.

in my case, it absolutely was. i also used/appropriated "mule train" and a few others. while i thought AD was cool, the two letter nicknames (LT, PT, and so on) are kind of bland. the old style nicknames can't be beat, but they really don't stick to a player any more. i will say that i liked the commercial for the ea sports college football game with AD saying, "i am golliath". would have been nice to see that nickname stick with ou, putting a bit of a pro-OU spin on "that game"'s aftermath. I know I'm getting a little off topic, but I almost prefer, "I am/we are golliath" to "there's only one". It's a little more intimidating than "there's only one".

[picasso]

or it could be said that "slinging Sammy" was stolen from Sammy Baugh.
heh

[Shneeg11]

sammy b or just "b" were his high school nicknames...

[The Maestro]

There is a great pizza place here in Phoenix called Sammy B's...meatball and onion is great.

Maybe I'll start eating that on gameday!

[TheUnnamedSooner]

how about f-350...cause that is what he is good for right...350 yards per game?


I GOT IT...TREEFIDDY!

I was going 150 for TD passes in his career, but yours works too :D

[stoopified]

I saw somebody on here call him Slinging Sam, I liked itUh that is Slingin' Sammy and thank you.Yes I stole it from Slingin' Sammy Baugh(I figured very few people on here ever heard of him).

[bstuff1979]

here's to putting off work. my list of nicknames, even though I highly doubt anything will come of it:

-the Iron Cannon
-Apollo
-the 3rd coming
-the Arctic Hammar
-Bedrock
-Keystone
-or we could just stick with "Sam Bradford". Not a bad idea

[The Maestro]

Coco.

[sooneron]

Chachi

[bstuff1979]

Coco.

I'm pretty sure you stole that from Koko B. Ware

http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/9/91/200px-Koko_Ware.jpg

[badger]

Hmm... nickname ideas...

His initials are "SB" so instead of the whole Superman thing with his parents being Martha and Kent, we could just call him...
Super Boy... Sooner Boy... Sammy Boy... Shotgun Bomber

His initials backwards are "BS" kind of like "Bob Stoops" or "Boomer Sooner," so he could also be the... "Sooner Boomer"

His number is #14, kind of like another famous Heisman shouda been who led us to the little. So he could also be called "Heupel Jr." or "Little Heupel"

But, he is a freshman, so like many n00bs, he could have a n00bish nickname, like "Froshie Thrower" or "Sammy Baby"

However, I like to think that he is a smart quarterback, over being a young quarterback, Heupel clone or anti-BS dude. Therefore, I say we call him "Einstein" or "Scholar" because he solves any offense problems idiot sports experts thought we would have this season :D

[oumartin]

I say we call them all National Champions.

[bstuff1979]

I've spent almost fifteen minutes looking through a thesaurus and trying to think like John Facenda. Way too much time spent on this and not continuing to bask in the light of OU whipping miami's backside. My final thought is, "The Red Barron" -the pilot of a devistating machine that destroys all in its path.

[OUHOMER]

Uh that is Slingin' Sammy and thank you.Yes I stole it from Slingin' Sammy Baugh(I figured very few people on here ever heard of him).
I believe it was your post that i saw. I liked it. Did not want to give JC any credit :eek:

[The Maestro]

I'm pretty sure you stole that from Koko B. Ware

I'm pretty sure you don't watch Seinfeld as much as I do...cause I did not steal it from the pro rassler.

[bstuff1979]

I'm pretty sure you don't watch Seinfeld as much as I do...cause I did not steal it from the pro rassler.

My name is Coco. Coco Higgins. We can't have two Coco's, so I guess Sam will have to be called Gammy.

[Jimminy Crimson]

B-14

[soonerspudman]

Sam-I-am (who eats green eggs and ham).

[CatfishSooner]

Damn Sam....bc thats what I saw after all his amazing throws

[GottaHavePride]

Man, we've had a lot of great players here. Josh Hoople, Andre Woolfork, Adrian Peterman, Sam Bradshaw...

[sanantoniosooner]

Mr. Bradford will do.

[soonerloyal]

"SSSSSSSOLID!"
"SSSSUH-WEEEET!"

[XingTheRubicon]

Sam Bradford's exploits make Superman seem like a fairy.




Spek to anyone who knows the origin of this one...

In high school it was always just Sammy B

One reason I'm so proud of Sam is that he is an Oklahoma kid who is Making Good. How about "HomeGrown"... :D

[OK2LA]

Singing Sammie Bradford

I hear he is an excellent vocalist as well.

[12]

I can't imagine being called "Little Red" as a current playing Sooner as anything but complementary.

[12]

"Little Joe" worked out pretty well.

[goingoneight]

Why do they call him AB?

(air borne???)

[Sooner74]

Slingin' Sam

[OK2LA]

Schwingin' Sammie Bradford

I hear that he is quite the ladies man.

[Shneeg11]

How about Scratch, in reference to his golf game?

Yeah, that's it... Scratch Bradford!

:D

[CtheB]

Sammy the Stallion....he faster, bigger and stronger (not to mention better) than a certain Colt we know.

After reading all the suggestions, I like this one the best.......

Man, we've had a lot of great players here. Josh Hoople, Andre Woolfork, Adrian Peterman, Sam Bradshaw...

you forgot Mark Bradford (they used that one on Saturday also)

[EstablishedSooner1967]

I dont think we should create them.. let the team do if so called for, but I do like this just for fun...

Some people are just dumb. Like you caught his name is wrong, and it says he's 27 but he list his birthday as "Born Nov. 8, 1987..." Not only that look at his location "oakahoma city, Oklahoma".

Some people kids

[XingTheRubicon]

You're not gonna sing for us are you Sammy?

[badger]

ok, somebody assemble the best nicknames for Sammy B, Sooner Sammy, Sam Sam Bo Bam, and make a poll.

We, sf.com, shall determine the nickname for OU's future.

:D

If I've been following this thread well, the top nominees to this point are:
A- Slingin' Sammy
B- The Red Baron
C- Galacticus

So... LAST CALL FOR AWESOME IDEAS! We need to come up with something before somebody else takes charge and comes up with something lame :(:(:(

I like it. I like it alot. If I were the farky type, I'd paste a OU red baron triplane fark. But I'm not.

[Jeopardude]

Corniest thread EVER.

[SouthFortySooner]

Why do they call him AB?

genius. ringtones abound :D

[BornandBred]

When I close my eyes, I see this thing, a sign, I see this name in bright blue neon lights with a purple outline. And this name is so bright and so sharp that the sign -- it just blows up because the name is so powerful... It says, "Dirk Diggler."

[sanantoniosooner]

Galactus will pour out his wrath on Utah State.

So saith Sasicles

[tennsooner]

I've been teasing a Vol fan here at work for over a month saying his name was " Bullet" Bradford. I think I'll just stick with that.:)

[Rock Hard Corn Frog]

Yoslingity Sam?

Hey, it's better than "the father of the son of Sam".

[Animal Mother]

It could be said that Jenni Carlson stole the "Slingin' Sammy Bradford" from me.

So, you can wipe away the Jenni Carlson stigma.

I believe that a pressure hose and a 55 gallon drum of Simple Green would be required to wash away the Carlson stigma. But hey, I’ll just hit Grainger on the way home and get the Simple Green and then stop off at a car wash. She’s history!

[swardboy]

How 'bout "Animal Mother"?

[OklahomaRed]

Singin' Slingin' Sammy aka. The Candy Man - cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good (The Candy Man Can). :D

[SoonerBOI]

Super Sam, Sam is the Man. A Man in Sam

Oh well..Mr. Sam Bradford.

[sanantoniosooner]

Galactus bids you to stop debating a settled point.

[cvsooner]

The Cherokee Kid.

Gunslinger.

Slinger.

How about just calling him Sam Bradford?

[SoonerDood]

His Mom's name is Martha.
His Dad's name is Kent.

I say we call him Kal-El.

and he plays in the home of Superman.

[goingoneight]

you forgot Mark Bradford (they used that one on Saturday also)

Don't forget Reggie Kelly and Patrick Allen. :D


Then of course there were the sucky ones like Brent Romar. :texan:

[Scott D]

HEY! Take the Reggie Kelly and Patrick Allen names to the other thread! :D

[Sooner Eclipse]

Corniest thread EVER.


Well, I'm glad someone finally said this. Teh ghey has been dripping from this thread for a while.

Now, for a suggestion. It not original, nor catchy and should only be used after we spank the great unwashed from cannibus city, USA. It really only does two things. It speaks to the point that Sam is for real and it will really get under the texicans skin after we whoop them.

HeiSam!!! :D


;)

[Soonerus]

Sam Willie...

[ouwasp]

It needs to be something with a long "U" sound. You know, one that the fans naturally voice during a game. A few yrs ago it was "Quuuu..." whenever Quentin Griffin made a play. Recently it's been "RUUU..." when Rufus Alexander caused damage to someone. Remember the fb for the Dallas Cowboys called Moose Johnson? Whenever he caught a pass "MOOO..." It even happened at away games, something I understand really irritated some NFL teams.

So there. Want something that will catch on and be anticipated by every fan at Owen Field, come up with a long u sounding nickname. :texan:

"BOOOMERRR!"

(sharply) "HAIL GALACTUS!"

[Crucifax Autumn]

Within a few games Sam's gonna make one of those plays that gives him the nickname that'll stick. I think it's a bit early to toss one out that won't be appropriate to his "hero moment".

[Jewstin]

Sassy Sam?

Saucy Sam?

Serious Sam? After the video game series. :D

[Crucifax Autumn]

That last one's not bad, but I still say the right one will fall into our laps soon enough.

Just as long as it's not Yosimite Sam I'll be good though!

[olevetonahill]

[Crucifax Autumn]

What can I say? I've been on a roll and I'm addicted to the board and the Sooners, neither of which is a bad thing IMO

[mikee likee]

I hope it becomes Sam the 4 time longwhorn killer.

[sanantoniosooner]

Oh GREAT and WONDEROUS GALACTUS................help me make a completion today.

Amen.

[badger]

So... um... do the other awesome guys on our team have nicknames yet, like Malcolm Kelly?

[bstuff1979]

Malcolm Kelly? I call him Captain Awesomedude

[bstuff1979]

Update to Malcolm Kelly:

He is, in fact, already nicknamed and done so by himself (as far as I know). He is the "Himalaya Playa'".
...and I quote, "...I 'aint even trippin', I 'aint never double dribble. 'Cause I'm a playa, from the Himalaya..."

[cvsooner]

How about RD? For real deal?

[joe_sooner11]

I realize I'm a noob here in reference to # of posts, but I'll contribute my thought and prepare for any potential backlash.

I realize there is another one of these out there and I don't like the association, but being that the big "question" heading into the season was at QB, why don't we call Sam...


"The Answer".

My 2 cents.

Boomer Sooner!!

[bstuff1979]

and as I'm continuing to put off work, because the internet is like crack when placed next to the option of being productive, here's yet another Bradford nickname:
The Rifleman

[aurorasooner]

I hate this thread because I think crap like this belongs on a giggling girls cheerleader thread. But I haven't been able to exorcise (no not exercise think Linda Blair) it out of my mind since I started reading it. I throw in my vote for 'Kee as in Cherokee and Key to the offense. Now that that's done, I'm not reading this freakin' thread any more. period.

[OKMAGIC]

I remember that time over Nacho Grande...... Sam was low on fuel.....

ferget it, I got nuthin

[CORNholio]

Steve

[CORNholio]

Steve has a nice ring to it. If get really hammered at OU/Texas Im thinking about calling him Gary.
