The Nickname Game

It's obvious that Coach Coley is on the very precipice of being a bonafide "man crush" for every single one of us. If he's not by now, I guarantee he will be. He's a man among boys, and the more I read about his superman lifestyle, the lazier and more full of crap I consider myself to be.

However, he needs a nickname. We began this conversation the other day, but it fizzled out. I'd like to revisit. I remember 2 good ones, which were James "The Hammer" Coley and "Java" Coley.

Personally, I'm loving the "The Hammer". However, it's obvious we have a creative bunch of readers here, and I say we pay tribute to this badass of a human with an even more badass nickname to begin his tenure of badassedness here at FSU.

SQUAAAAAAAAAAD UP!!!

Damn it feels good to be a Seminole.

I personally like

James “The Pen” Coley

Never fails when getting the signature on the dotted line.

I'm still a proponent of the hammer

Cause whatever he is doing he nails it.

So, simply, I propose that when we talk about Cooley we just simply call him “The Hammer”

As in, “The Hammer was in the 305 this weekend”

As in, “The Hammer nailed another recruiting trip for the Noles”

As in, “The Hammer nailed my gf last night, and I was cool with it”

And lastly, perhaps, “The Hammer seals the coffin on the Miami Hurricane’s season, calling a perfect game and making Miami’s defense look like a city morgue”

LOL!

Love the conversation NoleFrenzy. I vote for “The Hammer” as well.

Hilarious

true story: My girl friend was talking about her late sister while I was reading this and i busted up laughing.

Needless to say It required some explaining. She was cool with it though shes an awesome chick and know about my obsession with this website and the noles.

The Spear

Cuz he hits ’em head on (spearing penalty)

He also drives FSU Fever straight through the hearts of those he touches.

Sharp like a spear.

Hmmm...I feel your vibe

But Cooley just hits me like a Hammer

Like…

The Hammer

by Trus1te on Dec 6, 2009 11:15 PM EST up reply actions  

Just ranting with a few random ideas...

-James “The Cooler” Coley

-James “Canine” Coley

-James “Can’t Isn’t In My Vocabulary” Coley

-James “Sell Ice To An Eskimo” Coley

-James “Can-Can” Coley

…eh. Its late.

I bleed Garnet and piss Gold.

Sorry

But hammer makes me think of MC Hammer (I’m probably older than most of you), which isn’t a good thought. Don’t have a good alternative though

My vote would be for 'The Hammer'.

And Trickett’s nickname can be ‘Nails’, as in “Tough as…”

Other suggestions: ‘Stonecold Coley’ and ‘Hurt Locker’

by O-Town Nole on Dec 7, 2009 8:50 AM EST reply actions  

Ha! Hurt Locker!

I’ve got a one eyed, de-clawed orange tabby that lives outdoors. Even in his hobbled condition, he STILL terrorizes every other cat in the neighborhood! We call him Hurt Locker after the cat in the movie! (It was a cameo.)

I like Hammer too. Just as it’s not JCole or J-Co or any other stupid abbreviated initial nickname. I hope that trend passes and nicknames get back to being original.

Also “Hammer” reminds me of my last girlfriend before I married. She wasn’t wife material but damn! I used to wear my cowboy boots to bed (for traction), and she would say “Ooh! You’re gonna drop the hammer, aren’t you!?”

I used to be called the hammer because I would keep a gold plated hammer on my desk.

I got it as a gift when I was the sales manager for 36 person sales force and I replace 20 of them in the first 6 months there.

James "COLADA"

A colada is a 4 oz cup of straight Cuban coffee which comes with the shot sized portion cups for about 6 people.

I am sure this is what Coley buys when he is in the “305.”

CTC

“Committed To Closing”

Think that will cause any confusion? hahaahaha

by BS37FSU on Dec 7, 2009 11:21 AM EST reply actions  

there is no way we could use CTC

because of Chuck the Clown. I would have flashbacks of red shoes and the funny CTC video from NCST.

El Martillo

Spanish word for Hammer. Combines his love of Cuban coffee with his pounding of all who dare defy him.

by ScalpEM_TX on Dec 8, 2009 10:31 AM EST reply actions  

Some call him the Hammer

Others call him el Martillo

Pero no hombre can escape

Oh my GOD.

Well done. I am bowing before my computer in a sign of appreciation.

The Javanator

OK, I posted this elsewhere but thought it really resonated:

"Listen, and understand. That Javanator is out there. He can’t be bargained with. He can’t be reasoned with. He doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And he absolutely will not stop, ever, until you sign!"
