Both names came from the rant.

A bunch of white guys calling a white guy a honkey.

They're giving him a nickname to praise him.

Sports media will never utter the phrase Honkey Badger. Posters are just wasting their time

I am pretty sure that the "victims" of the "slur" taking ownership and using the word is the way to go, right?

Is this a word that we, white males, can say to each other, but other races need to back off?

I get confused. I need a rule book.

Honkey is indeed an an inherently funny word, but it will only have limited viral spreading nationally because the media won’t touch any nickname that insinuates race. Same thing happened to White Chocolate, Jason Williams. The players loved it but you rarely heard announcers say it.

Would it be funny if a letter that starts with N was in it?

What the dumbass is trying to give him that nickname don't realize or are too stupid to realize, as if that nickname sticks he will make almost no money from that type of nickname. You will not hear any TV sportscasters or stations refer to the honky badger. You will not see name brands such as Nike or Adidas put the honky badger on shoes or shirts. You would literally be costing him millions of dollars in the future. Try a different nickname that would fit him and also benefit him.

I just did. Cracker Honkey Badger


BTW, I played football for 3 years in High School and all my black friends on the team called me both "Cracker" and "Honkey" (Because I was racist as frick) but it was more of a "Football Teammate Joking Thing." Not serious and wasn't taken as serious.............
