The honey badger possesses an anal pouch which, unusually among mustelids, is reversible, a trait shared with hyenas. The smell of the pouch is reportedly "suffocating", and may assist in calming bees when raiding beehives.[15]

Somehow ESPN should be made aware of the origins... I could see it now, how the HB got his name, complete with interviews with Mike Linebacker, Chicken, TM7... could be one for the books.

just imagine when TM7 makes it to the NFL and his nickname sticks, it could be a whole decade of the nickname used on major networks, on tons of merchandise and used by millions when talking about him....all caused by one man that started a thread here
