The fact that hes looking like the best center on our roster is pretty [dang] sad right now.

[BASS_THUMPER]

G Man

[Redz]

How about Hot Ice?  Sodium Acetate?

The stuff that they use for steam on stage shows?  Maybe have the effects team let some off whenever he takes off his sweats to check in.  Or after every swat.

Only from a certain point of view....granted that's the view from where we hope to compete for a ring, but nevertheless...gotta take the good with the bad.....I'm enjoying the guy

The Block Aide?

I like Steimboat or Steimroller.

Just glad to see his defense translate like I thought it would.  Love his energy off the bench and I hope he keeps getting minutes for us.

I think the nickname has been sorted out:

3. Greg Stiemsma had a solid debut Wednesday night in New Orleans. The former D-League Defensive Player of the Year tallied six blocked shots in 17 minutes of playing time. Even when “Stiemroller” (the nickname he told WEEI.com he likes to be called) didn’t get a hand on shots, he made things harder at the rim for attacking Hornets. In a shortened season, efforts from the University of Wisconsin product like the one on Wednesday could bring the Celtics a long way towards righting the ship.

If he continues to block that many shots I promise to call him any nickname of his choosing.

The white nick names are quite lame IMO. Do we give black nhl players black associated nick names? I actually dont know since I dont follow hockey but that would be equally as lame.

The eraser was a good call by mike and Tommy.
