Around SBN: The Pros and Cons of an 18-game NFL Schedule

Making Ransacks



That title is actually an anagram for "Knicks Anagrams."  Catchy, no? 

Anyway, I've long thought that anagrams were as interesting and as predictive as astrology.  But, long breaks between preseason -- preseason! -- games will drive a bored man to desperate measures.  So I ran the notables from the NYK roster through the anagram machine and here is what I found.  It's more revealing than I expected.  (But still not very revealing.)

Star-divide

Danilo Gallinari = An Invalid Inlaid Gorilla

Wilson Chandler = Swollen and Rich

Eddy Curry = Cruddy Rye

Nate "The Great" Robinson = Threatener on Boasting

Larry Hughes = Harsher, Ugly

Chris Duhon = Shod Urchin

Al Harrington = Rang in Harlot

Toney Douglas = Youngest Load

Jordan Hill = Jill Hard-on

Darko Milicic = Acidic or Milk

Jared Jeffries = Jar if Fed Jeers

and my personal favorite

David Lee = Evil Dead (how can that not be his P&T approved nickname?)

 

Bonus Anagrams:

Isiah Thomas = I am a hot hiss

Stephon Marbury = As Nymph or Brute

 

Extra Bonus Anagrams:

Posting and Toasting = Stagnant Idiot Pongs

Seth Rosenthal = Threaten Slosh (accurately describes most undergrads, I think)

about the d-lee name

his nickname is, and forever shall be, “shallow water.” kenny smith tested, kenny smith approved.

i tend to co-sign kenny smith

but i think evil dead is too much to ignore.

but what is the genesis of “shallow water”

lee scores all his points from 5 feet and in

that’s why kenny came up with it.

now d-lee can actually hit a jumper, but this was 100% true a few years ago.

not to poke a hole in this exercise...

…because i love it, but where’s the “v” in “danilo gallinari”?

Outstanding point

I couldn’t read my own handwriting. It’s actually “An Inlaid Gorilla”

That's amazing!

I love how many of them actually match the players character. I fully endorse
“Evil Dead!” I think I’ll go listen to “Zombie” by the Cranberries now.

So true

Just like Eddy Curry, Cruddy Rye is also worthless, moldy, and filled with carbohydrates.
