Your couldn't even wait till the anchor on the other Perkins Nick Name post got it off the front page?
Lame.

ETA: That one pretty much tongue in cheek. This one is not.

This is the rant. Everyone loves abbreviations. CBK, CEO, CLM, TM7, BDJ, JD5, etc

We need a cheatsheet for the people that don't live here.

I would think before LSU put that out they probably ran it past Harold Perkins. In which he probably said yeah that's cool. If it's cool enough for him, it's cool enough for me. The Tasmanian devil

My bad for forgetting the abject misery that some here seem to live with.

I still think Perkules flows the best, but given the mythological connection to a powerful warrior with bad tendons...maybe not.

But, I could totally picture fr33manator writing an epic Perkules poem after he wipes the field with Stetson on Dec 3rd...

Missed it. When was that, My Man?
I kinda like TAZ - seems easier to scream at the tube, anyway.

Exactly, instead of giving him some random animal name just say he is

The " PERK" of our defense

Like LSU already had a good defense, he's just the added " PERK" to it.

HP40 -> P40 -> P-40 -> Curtiss P-40 Warhawk -> Warhawk -> Hawk

Harold “Hawk” Perkins Jr.

This is as dumb as any other attempt. Make it stop!
