Sorry Squidward but this is awkward. Do you even know what hell hellhounds do for work?

 

The original, Cerebus, guarded the gates of Hell. This nickname would work better for a defensive player, but if you dig deeper into the Blues and what their singers were talking about regarding hellhounds you'd realize how inappropriate using this as a nickname is. Language history is a B!tch...in this case literally.

Actually not hell, he guarded the underworld in Greek mythology...much different than the Christian Hell.  And again the name is inspired by the literary character of the same name from Dresden Files.

So, we have to read these books that you like in order for us all to understand the reference?

Sounds like a great idea for a nickname.

Good point, though they are great books and I highly recommend them.  There is a side character name Kincaid (introduced in the 4th or 5th book) who worked for the forces of evil... then turned into a mercenary and was hired to protect a little girl becoming a "good" guy and striking fear into the forces of evil.

Can we do recipes instead of nicknames? 

I just be glad if I could get soft boiled eggs out of a shell without burning my mitts and dropping a piece of shell in

I always feel nicknames should be earned.  Dalton Kincaid is The Hellhound, he started last year and I truly think he's going to earn that name this year.  If you've read The Desden files you understand the source.  But this team prides is self on having dogs and that dog mentality.  Well no dog is as feared as the Hellhoud. 

The name is Dalton. 

 

Road House. 

 

He does not need a nickname.

@NakedSquid I have to agree with the general sentiment that nicknames are given by teammates / coaches, and we can't really toss them out there in the internet and hope they stick like strands of spaghetti; however, I WILL say that a Hellhound is one scary MFer! See below:

Not unless you're talking about The Walmart. Walmart is less than The Walmart 

 

Uh, excuse me, sir. It's "Da Walmarts" and we go on Saddadays, according to my gram.

His name always sounded to me like he'd be a villain who wears an ascot.

Put these 2 together and I think you're on to something.

Keeping it from getting too greasy is the challenge and the key to a great Reuben. Too much sauerkraut or Thousand Island dressing on the inside and you have a slippery mess on your hands, literally.

 

Next question.   :)
