people never lose their nicknames.

No big deal. While many players have fitting nicknames, it seems like in some cases, somebody had to stretch and work to come up with some of the nicknames assigned to some of the players. I'd rather not have any, than hear some of them that are artifically manufactured be repeated over and over. They are totally unnecessary. If I say Allison, Jasmine, Helena, Kelly, Vivian, or many others, I think most of you know who I'm talking about.

Yeah they stretched in almost every case. My personal least favorite is ' Velvet'. Gotta love their persistence. They are trying everything. Im assuming this is true-I have no idea.

Hmm, Megan Minerich is not Megan Smith's nickname. It is her name.

Did I miss the press release from the WPBA on them not using nicknames anymore?

Seems like it will be a hard rule to enforce.

Sounds like a nickname that would be made up by a creepy stalker :wink:


Eric >don't say his name 3 times

All this time I thought you were travis trotter.

I agree - very hard to enforce that rule.

I'm sure some want to keep their pool nickname for business reasons. It's their brand name.. "The Black Widow", "The Striking Viking", to name a few. Johnnyt

Wpba Nicknames Gone?

As President Of The Wpba "sweat Hog" Organization, We May Have Been Responsible For This Decision If True. The 2 Senior Sweathogs, The 7 Full Time Hogettes, And The 6 Apprentice Wannabees Have Secret Names Known Only To Our Members. Disclosure Of These Names, Would Result In The Banning Of The Offender From The Group And Automatic 1st Round "draw" Vs Allison Fisher. As Our Group Grows, Albeit Highly Selective, Nicknames Will Not Be As Popular As The Sweat Hog Logo On Their Matching Outfits And Their Membership Roman Numeral #.

Tall Hog Of The Trough!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
