C: Ceatles
That's the nickname Kevin Garnett has given to the Celtics' new triple threat of Garnett, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce. It is the worst nickname ever. A team good enough to have Garnett, Allen and Pierce in the starting lineup deserves a better name than that. The "Ceatles" is just awful. A nickname of that quality should be reserved for a team bad enough to have, for example, Rajon Rondo and Kendrick Perkins in the starting lineup.
Careful, Mister Gallo, or Mister Perkins may find it necessary to punch a hole through your front door and teach you some respect ...
Anyway, back to the team nickname - I'm still partial to the "Not Big Three"/"Not The Big Three", since so many people are dead-set against invoking the names of the glorious Bird/Parish/McHale triumvirate that this phrase has almost become a proper noun:
How dare you use that nickname, these guys are definitely not the Big Three!
They need to win a couple championships first; until then, they're not the Big Three ...
However, if that doesn't float your boat, how about taking the first letters in each of their first names (people have already created GPA from their last names) and calling them WKRP (allstream.net); the "W" stands for lots of "wins" ... Actually, come to think of it, that would probably work better if the three of them played for the Kings (and they were still known as the Cincinnati Royals).
Okay then, how about an amalgam of their names, and call them PierceGarnAll ... Okay, that sucks, but - for some bizarre reason - whenever I say that out loud, it makes me think of ManBearPig (southparkstudios.com), and that just brings a smile to my face ;)
