Q: Where the hell did this ridiculous nickname come from?
A: Mully and Hanley
Q: Why is Bacon not a funny nickname?
A: Mully and Hanley
Q: What the hell does Bacon have to do with Gordon Beckham?
A: ?
Bacon is really becoming an obnoxious nickname for many reasons. First off, some loudmouth moron and a stuttering buffoon on the score tagged our savior with this nickname. Secondly, this nickname has apparently caught steam... I have seen numerous SSS posters refer to Gordon as "bacon" to my dismay. Why? Bacon is a fatty protein used for many dishes. Beckham is a lean mean right center hitting machine. No correlation there.Lastly, I don't get it, stop using it. Peace.

I don't like calling him Bacon
I’ve referred to him as Our Saviour and will continue to do so for as long as I live.

its simple
Beckham is BackHam. BackHam is bacon.
Still, I prefer Beckman.

I thought it was Ozzie who started that by mispronouncing his name?
and why are the flag/rec buttons switched, I just accidentally flagged this post (I think)

i think this makes me want to use the nickname more.
the nick reportedly is not M&H, but from ozzie’s spanglish. if you can’t find the hilarity in that, well, there’s no help for you.

Hawk holds the hammer on nicknames
The only way it can be overcome is if Hawk deems him worthy of a Big Hurt, El Caballo-type nickname. That’s a distinct possibility as Hawk will be spending pleeeeeennnnnnty of time getting to know young Gordon much better during spring training.

another reason to fire that jagoff ozzie… he is giving Our Savior a nickname that doesn’t support His greatness.

woah brother was ozzie swinging the bats this year?
Simmer down, the manager may influence 10 games either way throughout the life of a 162 game season. It is up to the players to perform. Appreciate the support with my anti-bacon (unless used as a meat bikini or thrown on a burger) campaign.

Go figure. Kenwo and WTGTD agree.
And had it been the radio bozos I’d agree too. But since it was Ozzie, I don’t mind.
And Colin, this is better than the normal RR material. This is what the newbs aspire to.
