chazf73 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Everyone thinks the Bengals defense is gonna be better this year. If so lets rally around them. What would be some good nicknames. Maybe you can be the one to get shirts made with the right slogan. Remember the swat team......be creative Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you can be the one to get shirts made with the right slogan. Remember the swat team......be creative I recently suggested Orange Crunk, but after sticking my neck out absolutely no love was sent my way in response. Not that I'm bitter about it. My new suggestion is that we call them..."Eleven angry men dressed like Cher." I admit it might be a little wordy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Bengal Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 They used to call the B.C. Lions (of the CFL) defence the Orange Crush! If the D improves, like I expect, this would be a good name for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalByTheBay Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Am I alone in remembering the 80's Denver defense as "Orange Crush"?? It wasn't that long ago.How about the Haloween D? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the D improves, like I expect, this would be a good name for them. Yeah, but Orange Crush is also what they called the Denver Bronco defense from several years ago.

HairOnFire Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 From the reject file.... The Marv-supials - T-shirt design should depict an angry looking tiger-striped wombat or kangaroo wearing a Bengal helmet. Corporate sponsorship might be available if the wombat or roo is shown eating a blooming onion. The Orange Pekoes - The temptation to play of the team colors is strong and has a rich tradition in sports. Sadly, most things that are orange aren't very scary, including this lovely flavor of tea. Also rejected because of this same reason is the Orange Chromides, a very small fish often found in household aquariums. Marvin's Martians - We're out there. T-shirt design depicts your basic giant seed-eyed alien preparing to use an anal probe on Kyle Boller. The marketing hook comes from changing the color orange to green on all of the T-shirts. Yeah, think about that for a minute. Green Bengal gear. The Soldiers of Orange - Wasn't this a movie starring that Rutger Hauer(sp?) guy? The Salmon Curtain - Again, the desire to play off of the team colors is strong, but when you get right down to it the flesh of the salmon fish is orange only on the inside, and even then only when served raw on some sticky rice. Hardly the stuff that makes for memorable nicknames. The Tang Dynasty - Mistakenly named for the orange colored breakfast drink the astronauts used to enjoy and not the Chinese warlords who ruled most of China from 618-907 A.D. The Steves - A simply horrible nickname idea that has no link to team colors, the city of Cincinnati, the game of football, or any Bengal player. Frankly, I think it's obvious that I should spend more time editing my posts. The Flying Tigers - Think of the possibilities. Leather jackets, shark-mouthed P-40 Warhawks, scarfs and goggles, and the less well known example of brave American flyboys fighting the nips while wearing ass-less chaps. The Lewis Cannons - Being a bit of a loose cannon myself I have to admit that I like this despite it's mediocrity. However, it does have one thing going for it. That being, absolutely no known connection to American fighting men wearing ass-less chaps. Eleven Angry Calebs - The entire Bengal defense pays tribute to Caleb Miller. Probably well meaning, but it seems a little unlikely at the moment. The Beercats - Beer. Cat. Beercat. Some bad ideas seem to write themselves. The Over-the-Rhinos - This one came to me in a dream. Oddly enough it wasn't mine. The Catastrophe Crew - Look, if the color orange doesn't get us there, well...how about playing off the cat angle? This one seemed promising at first and I really thought it might be the big one until a girlfriend of mine reminded me that the term catastrophe is a hookup buzzword in the gay community. Hey, who knew? Cat-22 - You know, like catch-22. You guys must remember the hilarious Joseph Heller book and movie. If not, catch-22 is defined as a problematic situation for which the only solution is denied by absurd circumstances inherent in the problem itself! In addition, nicknames for defenses that include numbers are considered the gold standard. Quite frankly, this one is so Bengal-like I rejected it for being too perfect.
