Since we all seem enamored with Bigelow, doesn't he deserve a nickname other than BB? "Flash" comes to mind ... whatd'ya got?

Whoever coins the nickname that sticks gets +1000 points
If the team starts to use it ... +1000000 points

How appropriate for another reason: He gets so few carries that if you go to the restroom or concession stand you miss him since he's gone in a flash.

As in what is happening to his Cal football career.

Oh boy ... this thread is not headed where I thought it would. Although this is probably more entertaining. Hilarious...

The Waterboy

The Big Nothing - as in how many minutes per game he gets

How about a new nickname for Tedford - "What the eff Jeff"

We could do a meme for BB With a picture of him sitting on the bench - "4 carries, 160 yds, 2 TDs, riding pine......TOUCHDOWN Seahawks!!!"

How about "Leo". Short for "Leonardo", as in Leonardo DiCaprio who was in that movie, "Catch Me If You Can". Or maybe just cut to the chase and make it Brendan "Catch Me If You Can" Bigelow. That would be pretty sweet.

Or how about "Wild" Brendan Bigelow, kind of like "Wild" Bill Hickok, the guy who killed all those buffalo. You have to be fast to kill buffalo I guess, and it may help when we play Colorado at least.

Another possibility is Brendan "Not a Male Gigolo" Bigelow, since some people have already confused his name for that character from that terrible movie a few years back.

Nah, let's just stick with "Biggie Fast", like Notorious BIG was known also as "Biggie Smalls". Or maybe "the Notorious F.A.S.T", although that doesn't really sound very cool.

The Comet. Doesn't come around very often, so the anticipation builds every time it does.

Big 5 - because he gets 5 carries a game.

Also, the Big 5 slogan happens to be, "We get you ready to play" and Big's is definetely ready to play.

How about "the unknown college player"? Like the ESPN headline from the OSU game. Even Cal's PA was calling him Brandon at the Nevada debacle.

"John Doe" Bigelow?

Brendan Bigelow's story at Cal has turned into somewhat of a Parody.

Has anyone watched the movie Lorax? In the movie they reference "The Horton who"--I've watched the movie with my kids and have found there to be many similarities.


Why not just reference him appropriately as the.

"The Horton Who"?

For now "The secret weapon"

Eventually it's gotta be "Brendan Big (something) Bigelow."

Big Play
Big Gain
Big Load
Big Money

I am recalling the older style of alliterative sports nicknames!

I like the previous suggestions of Flash, Bam and Deuce, although that suggests he is
#2. Cinco would be more appropriate but conjures up images of Ochocinco.

I'll have to give it more thought but how about BigAloha, as in "see you later" as he runs past the defenders?
