I knew it was James Robert, but did he go by Jim Bob before showing up on the Hill? Was his dad's name John Boy?

'WoodStrock' of the old Miami Dolphins. Don Shula made a composite name out of Don Strock and some other player named Wood (don't remember who the other player was now).

I think it was David Woodley and Strock..."Mercury" Morris was a good one for the Dolphins...I also liked "Bullet" Bob Hayes from Dallas as a NN from that era...

There have been some good ones over the years.

Unfortunately, I remember when Kelly Washington was playing for UT a few years back, and he nicknamed himself something like "The Answer." After some seemingly selfish play and ego issues, a friend of mine started calling him "The Cancer."

What about Casey Clausen's nickname of "Ice Man?" That was cool. HA!

He called himself "The Future".
