The Centaur? Mitch Holthus is Bad at Nicknames

AUTHOR: Adam Best | IN: Chiefs | COMMENTS: 2 Comments

CentaurC’mon, Mitch Holthus. Can’t we think of a better name for Larry Johnson than The Centaur? Even though he’s rolling with the punches, there’s no way he can possibly like that nickname. We here at Arrowhead Addict even think that it could be the worst nickname possible out of all the 1,008,436,729 possibilities. Ugh. Yuck. Put this one to bed. We all have have to step up and deliver a nickname for 2-7, because The Centaur and Grandmama are both terrible.

By the way, if L.J. is The Centaur, then what would the offensive line be so far? Fairies? Dwarves? Hobbits?

    I don't mind Centaur. I mean, all nicknames now are initials (e.g. LJ, LT, MJ), First Letter-First Vowel names [A-Rod, C-Webb, D-Wade, Dice-K (switched abound, but still counts)], or stupid cliches (e.g. Lights Out, The Diesel, Rocket). Having something like "Centaur" is weird, but at least it's different and original. As for the O-Line, I've always liked one of the nicknames I've heard before for the Chiefs: The Red Sea. Except now, instead of parting, it seems to be crashing down prematurely.

    I'm with Chris.  A little whacky yes, but also original.  Besides, LJ likes it.  And, I'll tell you, anything sounds good right after Mitch says "TOUCHDOWN KANNNNSAS CITY!"
