With a nickname like that, who wouldn't love....

(1) Jared Lorenzen "The Pillsburry Throwboy", "The Abominable Throwman", "He Ate Me", "Hefty Lefty", NFL- I mean I shouldn't even have to make this argument. Any of these nicknames is ranked among the best, and they all refer back to the not-slender figure of this QB. Let's just hope that he doesn't lose weight.

(2) Wanderlai "The Axe Murderer" Silva, UFC- With his unbelievable knockout power, it is no wonder he gave himself that nickname. In terms of sheer outlandishness, he wins. There are no weapons in MMA and I love that he incorporates something that doesn't even apply. You got to have a lot of balls to have that nickname, but let's remember he is the fighter whose entrance music is "Sandstorm".

(3) Clyde "The Glide" Drexler, NBA- Perhaps the most fitting name of any on this list. Every move was silky smooth for Drexler. Everytime he faded away for that jumper, it was as if he was dancing on a clowd.

(4) Stu "The Grim Reaper" Grimson, NHL- His skills were always up for debate. But his strength and fighting ability never came under scrutiny. He excelled as one of the toughest enforcers in the NHL. It also equally incorporates his personality with his last name, a key to a good sports nickname. He made you want to "put on the foil" every time he played.

(5) Rod "He Hate Me" Smart, XFL- The only reason to watch the XFL (other than the "no fair catch, ball is live" rule...seriously NFL please adopt this rule).
