The Boston Red Sox - AKA . . .
Nicknames.
I have a lot of them. As the Red Sox were starting off their season with a W today, I was oohing and ahhing over my boys with a friend and she remarked that I have quite a few nicknames for the players. Here's some of my gems:
Jacoby Ellsbury aka: husband, Jacobs (pronounced Jah-cohbs), Coby, Jacoby
Dustin Pedroia aka: Duster Buster, Dusts, Dusty, Pedey, MVP
David Ortiz aka: Papi obviously.
Kevin Youkilis aka: Youkkkkkkkk, Kev, Kevy, Youky
J.D. Drew aka: JD Baby, Jade, Nancy (as in Nancy Drew)
Jason Bay aka: Jaybay, JJ, Jace
Mike Lowell aka: Mikey boy, Mikey Wowell, Oh **** did you see that (most frequently called this when he makes an amazing play)
Jed Lowrie aka: rookie. Seriously, he hasn't been on the team long enough. I just call him Jed most times.
Varitek aka: TEKKIE! My screename on aim is a version of his name that involves ctek for Captain Tek. He's also JJ, Tekster, Jtek, boyfriend
Josh Beckett aka: Becks, Buddy, Joshie, Josher

Daisuke Matsuzaka aka: Dice, Dicey (on a bad day)
Jon Lester aka: hero, buddy, Jonny, my Jonny, Les, Les Bes
Tim Wakefield aka: Wake, Wakey, Timmy, Wakers
Clay Buchholz aka: Buchholz with two Hs. Seriously, this is what I call him. Have you ever seen a last name spelled like this?
Hideki Okajima aka: Jima, Deki, Okie Dokie
Justin Masterson aka: Buddy, Jus, Justie, JMass
Manny Delcarmen aka: Manny D
Javier Lopez aka: J-Lo, Javy
Takashi Saito aka: Hash Browns. Don't ask why I have one for him and not Jed Lowrie. I could not explain this.
Rocco Baldelli aka: Rocko's Modern Life. Good show!
Jonathon Papelbon aka: Papster, Papserboners, JPap, Pap, Pappy (pronounced differently than Papi, Jonny Boy, Light's out.
Anyone have other nicknames for either the Sox or your team?
By the way, even though the Sox are back, these guys have my heart and attention on Thursday night:

FROZEN FOUR, BABY!!!!

Not sure if you noticed - but your blog posted twice. Don't like Nancy for JD - but Dusty & Pap & Mikey are favorites of mine.

Haha my friend and me nicknamed J.D. that last April I think. My dad get's really upset when I call him that too. It's out of love.
Yeah I don't know what happened with the posting . . . It appeared that way in preview and did not in the actual publishing screen, so I just went with it. Can't hurt, right?
