C.C. Nickname

Does anyone have a good nickname for C.C.?

I have been solely referring to him as "The Hamburglar" because he reminds me of Bartolo Colon.  I dubbed Bartolo Colon "The Hamburglar" a few years ago because it was completely within the realm of sanity to hear a story about him “running around a McDonald’s and stealing everyone’s hamburgers and then jamming them down his throat.”

All of this C.C. talk is taking me right back to where I stood in ‘03. I think Bartolo would be honored and he looks great in black and white…

I always found Bartolo to be "Fezzik-like"

from the neck up at least.

I can see the Hamburglar too, given a mask.

CC Ryder

Why no love for the big guys you wimps?

Anyone who comments on a player’s weight should politely add a photo of themselves shirtless to prove what a svelte figure they possess.

I know some of you extra large fat fuggers hate your own lard asses so much that you snap at Bart and CC for actually doing something great after eating that fourth twinkie for breakfast.

My fat ass

Won’t cost the Angels $140 million. But if it did, I’d GLADLY give you any pictures you wanted. I’m more concerned about his repeated 3-day rest performances and all the innings he’s racking up, rather than being a big dude.

Clarification

“My fat ass” was really in reference to it and taking photos of it, not in reply to anyone else’s posts.

i personally am still of the opinion that bigger guys make better pitchers

there is still a limit, and i dont think cc is at that. he’s got the height on top of the girth, so that only helps i think.

I think that posting a photo of me sans shirt...

woud violate community standards and subject Rev to obscenity charges. Hate to be the cause of HH shutting down

Hey, I'm all for multiple twinkie's in the middle of no-hitters

I’m just worries about his longevity considering the money that’s getting thrown at him.

and FYI Rev, I’m a 24 year old kid from Philly, who hasn’t quite hit the metabolism decline yet, although I know it’s coming. That being said, I’m not a hypocrite for criticizing C.C. “Tex’s Money” Sabathia’s weight, yet…
