Adrian "Internet" Peterson

A.D. = All Day ............ this is simple. he has only had this nickname all of his life.

This is wrong on two levels:1. You don't get to choose your own nickname.

2. "AD" does not conform to ESPN nickname standards.

I guess if someone else made up that name for him, they could call him that on Fox Sports, but it won't be making Sportscenter.

In life no one knows you better then your parents.... In football no one knows you better then your coach...In this video from http://www.adrian-peterson.com/ both his dad and Childress call him A.D.

Childress is at the 1 min 10 sec mark and his dad explains the whole story at the 3 min 08 sec mark.

Altho I am not surprised that ESPN screwed up again (poker, eating contests,) they are an east coast and west coast bias network that only cater to the mass population (good business decision, bad sports decision).. yeah I live in Oklahoma...... sorry don't post much and rant is over

Wow. Someone really needs his meter checked.(A spectacularly well done thread, A de C.)

Where is the over rated option?

Lets also let him play a down before we lable him "Bust" and "Over-rated". He is a good dude and the NFL needs more of them. Sad thing is some of these people really want him to fail or get hurt. Too much hatin. Love,

Well, the NFL currently has a Cadillac that cannot get off the line, a tank that is armed to the teeth, and a Pac-Mule. The next choice is down to a Yugo or a Neon.

Neon is already taken by Mr. Deion Sanders. Yugo it is.

1. You don't get to choose your own nickname.

Fred Ex did... Actually, I think Champ and Boss Bailey both did, as well.

I think Champ and Boss were their given names. Is this wrong?

Champ's real name is Roland Bailey, and I forget what Boss's real name is. They picked "Champ" and "Boss" back in middle school and have been going by that ever since.Roland Bailey just doesn't have the same ring to it, anyway.

Why does he need a nickname ?
