Michael Jasper - Let's vote

PrintA few days ago I posted a fanpost suggesting that we come-up with Nicknames for our new rookies. I've sifted through the 46 comments to my post to tabulate the options that were suggested.
In order not to screw the results, I will go one player at a time. Our final guy in this series is also the last guy we drafted in round 7, the big man - Michael Jasper.
This guy was actually the inspiration for this series, he is a mountain of a man currently weighing in at a svelte 378lbs. In his interview he was saying that his playing weight last year was well over 400lbs !! This guy deserves a nickname - big time!
I read a great article about this kid this morning, here it is! I don't know about you guys but I'm proud that our scouts are thorough enough to find these gems in the rough. I for one hope this kid takes this opportunity and runs with it. He has the chance to become our NT and be the anchor of this Defense for many, many years to come.
So without further ado, lets vote:
Just another great fan opinion shared on the pages of BuffaloRumblings.com.

So many nicknames seem contrived.
I like Jazz. Until we see him play, see what his demeanor is like, see how he meshes with the rest of the line, I like the simple play on his last name. Let him earn his next monicer/term of endearment /what have you…
I'm a big fan of jazz
Michael Jasper and Jazz have vitually nothing in common. Think about it. Jazz is smooth, flows easy, and can jump around nimbly and elegantly. Michael Jasper is …….
Go Buffalo Bills, Utah Jazz, and Arkansas Razorbacks
you just like it
because you’re a jazz musician ;)

Yes, and if I ever had to improvise to the inspiration of Michael Jasper in uniform, I’d be so confused, I’d put the horn down, reach for a Hurricane (or three), and have another go at it.
Michael Jasper is AWE-SOME in the true sense of the word, but nothing about the man or how he moves on a football field is jazzy…it’s actually a fantastic counter-example of jazz.

How about, "DOOM"!
I can dig it! Its 4th and inches on our goal-line, the Dollfish decide to go for it….. Chan sends in the big boys…….. the crowd goes crazy and starts out with a loooong deep DOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!
The Dollfish stupidly call a play to run up the middle…… Doom crushes the center, throws the guard on his left shoulder off like a fly, and then pancakes the RB for a two yard loss!!
THE CROWD GOES CRAZY!!!!! FANDEMONIUM!!! DOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!!

Now it’s 4th & inches with only seconds left in the Game and the Bills are down by 4. The Pats send in their goal line Defense only to see Chan send out Jasper. Flabbergasted, NE can’t believe it size and athletic ability of our guy as he bowls past them behind Bell & Levitre…and GLOOM settles over Boston in disbelief. DOOM & GLOOM strikes again!
For all you folks sayin’ all these players need to ‘eeeeaaarrrrrrrrrnnn’ nicknames, I do agreed.
But nothing harmful being done here in the shadow of the NFL Lockout….loosen’ up!

A potentially great story
if he can get through his first training camp and be on the taxi squad, that will be encouraging.
prediction for 2010 season is 3 and 13
MOUNT CHOCULA
I’d vote for Mount Chocula…. but it’s not on the list.
awesome..that is better than any name on "the list"
I don;t like any on the list

… currently weighing in at a svelte 378lbs.
Love your writing style.
To the list you might add “Mt Jasper”, since he is from MT Juliet, TN, and is a mountain of a man. (No TWSS)

He seemed like a child molester. “C’mere little Jason, is your dad in a good relationship with you?”
Just kidding. Was kinda oddball though.

I like Care Bear
But Jasper might not, that’s kind of a wimpy name.
Go Buffalo Bills, Utah Jazz, and Arkansas Razorbacks
I cant believe you did not let me vote for my "ACCO DOZER"
It does seem to fit him better in a FB mode then as a NT.
Please base your arguments in provable facts instead of pulling stuff out of your rear. -CanadianBillsFan- This is why talk is cheap because the supply always exceeds the demand.
I had a post to start the ball moving with suggestions called “nickname series – input phase” and I took all names that were suggested in that post from everyone. I cannot re-open the poll after it starts. I do like the for a FB.

I know I kind of came up with it late.
just giving you a hard time though. =)

His nickname now is Big Shadow....fairly apparent why
I think his teammates will give him a nickname. I like “OMG” myself but I’d have to go with whatever he wanted to be called. He’s a scary man who I dont think I’d want to intentionally upset. I dont think Id want to be around if he was angry or hungry.
It's amazing
because i expected a big fat man like ted washington but this guy doesn’t look fat he is just extremely wide and his pipes are the size of tree trunks, biggest arms I think i have ever seen. I can definitely see what the excitement is.. He does indeed look athletic for such a huge man.

right now its a tie between Tiny and Mammoth
we could split the difference and call him Tiny Mammoth.

You said it yourself buddy...
We’ll call him BIG TIME!

Just trying to find, a good one for my newest favorite player to root for, my last two were Stevie Johnson and Eric Wood, but now that they are entrenched as solid NFL players, Michael Jasper is now my favorite Bill to root for!

I’ve been rooting for Scuba Steve since the absolute beginning. I remember being impressed by his toughness the first year in pre-season. His blocking skills were impressive and he seemed to have a knack for finding open spots.
I took a lot of heat around here suggesting that he should get playing time over Josh Reed who we knew we weren’t going to resign or over TO would also was one & gone. I knew he was going to succeed, it’s really a good feeling when you see that diamond in the rough before it blooms. So many were quick to dismiss him because he was a 7th rounder that had not proven anything yet, but then I’d argue – how can he prove it if he doesn’t get a chance? Way to make us proud Stevie!
I actually never figured out where the Scuba Steve came from? Must be the Jamaican looking dreadlocks ?
