Pokemon references! Gotta alienate all those older fans who read the comic somehow, right? Sorry, Mom’s co-workers, you probably don’t get this joke. It’s for hip sexy young people already feeling nostalgic for the 90’s.
Anyway, Champ Bailey was a Denver institution and he will be missed. Out of all the Denver players I felt bad for in the Super Bowl, I felt for him the most. He deserved a ring. Godspeed, Champ.
I hope we don’t use the same Pokemon joke for whenever somebody gets released. There has been a few big names who are gonna be free agents. Revis, Sprouse, Hester, Decker, and my personal favorite, Hankeem Nicks
None of those easily pun into Pokemon names (that I know of)
Bell-Sprouse and Hankeem Onyx. If you don’t mind going past the first 151, there’s also Misd-Revis. And because I’m a bad person and immediately made the connection between football players and making animals fight each other for our amusement, Michael Victreebel.
I’ll apologize for that last one, but I stand by the first three.
Challenge Accepted!!
1) DeVenonat Hester
2) DaRellsprout Revis
3) Eric PsyDucker
4) Michael Vicktribell
5) Mankeem Nicks
6) Donte Whitmonchan
I hope these ones weren’t too Farfetch’d… Oh who am I kind… they sucked.
Nothing will ever beat Eric Weedle and Shellder Richardson…
Kickers seem to have the easiest names to Pokefy for some reason, Mike Charvanderjagt and Mason Heracrossby coming to mind right off the bat.
For some high draft picks:
Jadaveon Mr.Mime
Derek Magicarrp
Johnny Mankeyziel
Eric Ebronix
Blake Squirtles
It sucks watching cornerstone players forced to leave because of the cap. Champ won’t look right in something other than a Broncos uniform. Same for Jared Allen in something other than Vikings purple. Jerry Rice never should’ve donned the Silver & Black(We’re not even going to talk about his time in Seattle). Ed Reed did not look right in Jets green last year, and the fact he wasn’t wearing 20 compounded it.
I know it’s not the way that it is in the cap era, but it’s just really sad that things like this happen. You know that Champ would want to stay in Denver – great shot at a ring and it’s the town he’ll be remembered in – but that’s the nature of the beast.
Cj2K won’t look right either and all Titans fans know he’s gone
I know it’ll look weird for half of these free agents, seeing them in other uniforms. I still can’t get over seeing Manning and Welker and Broncos.
As Broncos
Smitty 🙁
I am nostalgic for the 90’s… gotta catch ’em all!!! Right, CRBM?
We just let go of Cinder DQwell. He was the fire type that sparked our defense. We’ll never beat the Johto Gyms now, INAEIAB….
Bj playin pokeman on our playne ride to meet some lady called la kiss;)
