In the game thread today, a small discussion was brewing about nicknames and Brad Mills. Apparently, he brought the moniker 'Millsy' with him from Boston. Since this sounds suspiciously like the kind of nicknames Milo gives to every player, let's try to think up something creative.
So far, we have:
General Mills
Millsmeister
Baron von Millstein
The Sarge
Milli Vanilli...scratch that...that one is terrible
Use this thread to come up with more nicknames and we'll put up a poll with all of them during tomorrow's game thread.

first of all
badass picture. KP is the man.
second, I agree on General Mills….If we could only get Coco Crisp, then we’d have the whole cereal motif down pat
Evan Hochschild - March 10, 2010
Haha..
Yeah, waiting for season 2…someday.
And yes, agreed with the cereal.

LOL @ "cereal motif"
If Matsui has a break-out (and/or injury-free) year, he can be Special K. = )

can we just call Pedro Feliz “Happy Pete”….not really a nickname, it would just be silly to call him the english equivalent of his name
Evan Hochschild - March 11, 2010
Agreed.

Bud Norris' nickname:
per Alyson Footer: “Cudly Budly”….
I think someone other than Mills has the worst nickname.
Evan Hochschild - March 10, 2010
Baron von Millstein!
entropic soul - March 10, 2010
General Mills
It seems I remember a member of the press calling him that too. My second choice has to be Baron von Millstein.

General Mills.
He seems like a good guy to follow. Got your back and serious about winning.
Killer Bee - March 10, 2010

General mills is my favorite
It’s a solid name

When I hear "General"
I think of Bobby Knight.
Joe in Birmingham - March 11, 2010
let's just hope
It doesn’t turn into “BM” before the season is over (not that I’m skeptical of his performance, it’s just never a bad time for toilet humor)

Milli Vanilli
I Think Milli Vanilli has a ton of nickname has a ton of potential.
