Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted November 5, 2012 This was actually posted last week, but I didn't see it until now. Apparently Doug Martin hates that stupid nickname as much as I do... He wants something different, what would you suggest?? The rookie closed by asking – not quite begging or praying – but asking, pretty please, if the writer and TV people could maybe find him a new nickname, not the one he had at Boise State: "The Muscle Hamster." "I don't have a suggestion," Martin said. "I need to come up with one, I need to. No M.H." What's so wrong with Muscle Hamster? "I guess," Doug Martin said. "But it's not the most beast-iest animal … T-Rex, something like that, something bigger, prehistoric or something." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ATL_Predator+ 1,196 Posted November 6, 2012 Megatron is about the equivalent of Optimus Prime...when reality Optimus Primes is pretty badass. Secondly, 'Matty Ice' is one of the worst nicknames I've ever heard. Never said it, never will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Milla4Prez63 678 Posted November 6, 2012 "I guess," Doug Martin said. "But it's not the most beast-iest animal … T-Rex something like that, something bigger, prehistoric or something." You heard it, he obviously wants his new nickname to be T-Rex Something. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RazorStar 4,025 Posted November 6, 2012 Bitch Please, if you watching the NFL Netork at the beginning of the year, they tried to make "The Mattural" an actual thing. Pretty gross. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glanvilles Grits 142 Posted November 6, 2012 It's really not about what they sound like. It's about how they come about. Matt Ryan got his way back in his high school days. Adrian Petersons "All-Day" came back in high school he has said as well (Which is also my favorite nick name in the NFL) Doug Martin is just out of luck. The Muscle Hamster has taken over.

KiLaSix9+ 398 Posted November 6, 2012 I've never referred to him as that. I find it as terrible a nickname as he does. Someone on Twitter even asked him if he liked the 'Hamster' nickname and he said no. I've been referring to him as Mighty Mouse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CribbsForTheWin 117 Posted November 6, 2012 I've never referred to him as that. I find it as terrible a nickname as he does. Someone on Twitter even asked him if he liked the 'Hamster' nickname and he said no. I've been referring to him as Mighty Mouse. So many players are referred to as Mighty Mouse at one point in their careers. I wanna say MJD and Sproles both have been called that by some of their fans. i got no nickname for him.

rzb+ 367 Posted November 7, 2012 Best replacement nickname I've read is "Cannonball." Shows his strength and fits the Buc theme. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
