[b]"We get it, but it's stupid."[/b]
now by "we" I'm assuming you are speaking for yourself and not all 49er fans. I'm not saying that everyone will like the name, It's almost impossible for everyone to like one nickname, especially one that was created within a group of friends. So, feel free to let me know your ideas for a nickname (so I can most likely shoot it down). I don't just call Patrick Willis "Dr. Manhattan". Instead I use a variety of names like P. Willy, The Beast, Lil' Sing, Sing Junior, and of course The G.O.A.T. In Training
I call him Willis, or Patrick Willis.
The usual point of a nickname is to make a name shorter or easier to say anyway, so why make it three times as long?
I call Crabtree 'Crabs' just because that is what his teammates called him in college and what everyone here in Lubbock called him.
So you can shoot 'Crabs' down if you want and say it's stupid, but since he answers to it (or used to), you'd be wrong.
That's exactly what I have been calling Crabtree for the past few weeks so at least we can agree on one thing

Any truth to this?
If there is, that's pretty damn good getting into the head of an old Pro Bowl CB.

Woody Paige is also a complete moron. I wouldn't ready anything into that. If Crabtree gets 50 catches, 5 TD's and 700 yards receiving I wouldn't expect anything more and I would be happy.

{Maybe the most beneficial experience, though, came when Sanders invited Crabtree to attend his camp at SMU last summer. With NFL all-stars such as Devin Hester and T.J. Houshmandzadeh looking on, Crabtree went one-on-one with Pacman. More times than not, the college kid beat the pro.
“It was remarkable,” Wells said. “He looked like he’d already been playing in the NFL for years. Pacman, naturally, was all mad and pissed off about it. But in the end he couldn’t help but compliment Michael and show his respect.”}

He will defiantly be a productive receiver but it will defiantly take time to adjust to the NFL level and recover fully from his surgery.
