Sounds like you're really triggered about this.

The guy's name is "Wembanyama" which is kind of long.

Wemby is short for that.

Not sure why that's such a big deal.

giving a guy who’s name you can’t pronounce a nickname is an alpha move.



And we've been doing it in the sports world forever. TJ Houshmandzadeh was rarely called by his last name. I heard TJ, Housh, and a few others. They even did a funny commercial about fantasy league drafts and no one knowing how to pronounce it.

Saltalamacchia was called Salt or Salty. Giannis is just called by his first name, since his last name is Antetokounmpo. Coach K is another where the spelling of his last name meant we shortened it. Dellavedova is commonly shortened to Delly.

Calm down, Chet. Wemby will enter the NBA lexicon as his career gets going. The dude is a basketball unicorn.

Definitely only the coolest people use these words over and over. This feels like one of those "macho dad screams at son for being gay and hates 'figs' and all of that but secretly likes to sick ducks on the down low" kind of situations.
Only 32 posts, and all of the stuff you quoted


It's either just a troll or one of the more insecure posters you'll ever see. 100% guaranteed 1 of the 2.

It’s disappointing that there are so many low test beta bois in this country. France I get, but not here.

GTFO of here with that Wemby nickname shite. I’m sure Vic thinks the same.
