Good point. You go, Jethro.
Could Burly be better overall than Ohtani?

Oh c'mon why shoot so low?
Just look at their builds, Burleson is easily the next Babe Ruth!

Could we somehow incorporate both the Babe and Ohtani into a Burly nickname?rockondlouie wrote: ↑08 Jun 2025 09:06 am Oh c'mon why shoot so low?

Another fun thread...silly but no harm...of course, there will be some posters who will be offended and insult others...I suggest they simply ignore threads they don't like...of course, that would require being able to mind your own business.

Such uncivility for which you clutch your pearls when you perceive it in others.

Burley Ruthtani? Tough chore renaming a god. Just enjoy his dominance over mere mortals. Great post.JDW wrote: ↑08 Jun 2025 09:20 amCould we somehow incorporate both the Babe and Ohtani into a Burly nickname?rockondlouie wrote: ↑08 Jun 2025 09:06 am Oh c'mon why shoot so low?

Re: Could Burly be better overall than Ohtani?
More worried about mod take on this! Tried convincing we were just having a little clean fun goofing on someone who actually gets belligerent, but SOS labeled a troll and C.Wolfe did a dime in mod jail for “puppetry”…and sowing seeds of distrust, diminishing credibility, and causing “sock-paranoia”. Seemed a bit dramatic to me but all good. Did anyone actually think that was Shady himself?? Maybe it was just too real? I guess SOS was a bit of a callout name lol!

Straightforward and simple. Easily interpreted. Seems Burley-worthy to me. There really aren’t enough words to describe Burley’s badassery so an acronym makes sense. Great input.

Excellent comparison. Though I view Burly as a statue carved by gods. Or maybe an alien. Something definitely supernatural about his physique and bat-to-ball skills.rockondlouie wrote: ↑08 Jun 2025 09:06 am Oh c'mon why shoot so low?

Yes, an acronym could help capture more of the total AB BA (badassery), but can it be captured in only 4 letters? I don't think so.CorneliusWolfe wrote: ↑08 Jun 2025 10:45 amStraightforward and simple. Easily interpreted. Seems Burley-worthy to me.
