We have the Hayne Plane, what are players nicknames on the team. Do they have any? A few come to my mind for some players, and oppositions.

The best nickname I can recall is Dick "Night Train" Lane. Damn good football player too, in 1952 he intercepted 14 passes in his rookie year, still the record. They only played 12 games a year back then. A side note, he was married to jazz great Dinah Washington.
