Well, in another thread people were wondering about how a fellow poster came up with his name. Then that got others to thinking about what the hell all of our screennames mean. So go ahead, spill your innermost secrets. At least, tell us how your screenname came to be.

Scrumtrilescent: Will Ferrell, before making crappy movies like Kicking and Screaming and Bewitched, was one of the only saving graces of SNL. One of his most infamous impersonations was James Lipton, the Actor's Studio man. In one skit, Lipton/Ferrell was interviewing Charles Nelson Reilly and this crept up:

...Nor, indeed, was the world.. nor history.. nor anything that the human eye has ever captured. When one thinks of CNR, one's mind goes right to Match Game. That show was delightful. No. No. It was brilliant. No, no, no, no. There is no word to describe its perfection, so I am forced to make one up. And I'm going to do so right now. Scrumtrilescent...You are a modern master. Already a huge success on Broadway, you easily crossed over into film. In 1984, you portrayed Don Don Canneloni.. in Cannonball Run 2. A performance so scrumtrilescent, I can barely move...I am born anew in your genius...I am not alone in thinking that you make Gandhi look like a child pornographer. For Inside the Actor's Studio.. I'm James Lipton.

Here is mine copied from the other thread (its sort of lame...but I've used the same screen name in many places since I was first on the internet)

w2 -- my initials are ww and I was called "w squared" by a person a long time ago and sort of liked it.

80 -- the year I was born

sax -- I was very into the saxophone for a long time. Not so much anymore, but I still remember it fondly.

If I'd known I would post so much here, I would have thought of a better name...but oh well.

You can call me Sax for short, if you prefer.

I was born on a distant planet and given this name by my creator. I came to this earth in a phantom prison that was destroyed by a nuclear bomb. My goal now is to conquer the world and have mankind serve me. I also like long walks on the beach, lasagna, and a good single malt scotch.

Mine's boring. The very first message board I joined was about 4 years ago, and it was the official panthers message board. I joined it first just intending to read - and joined using my real name - didn't know any better. It was months before I ever posted, and by then I had figured out that I shouldn't use my real name. I put about a minute of thought into it because I wanted to post something then, rejoined using Go To Girl because they're always talking about who the Go To Guy is regarding receivers and I wanted something football related. I've kept it because people know me now through the many, many message boards I've been on. I shorten it to GTG often.

Cooter = Something I love.

Actually Cooter from the Dukes of Hazzard is a good ol boy and I admire im.

I remember when you and a whole bunch of other huddlers changed their names all at the same time. I'm convinced you all did it to confuse me, but now I can't even remember what the old names were - at least some of them.

Well mine is actually a cross between several things. Spirit was the name of my faithfull companion and best friend for numerous years. I got him while backpacking in Alaska - 1/2 german shephard (moms side) and 1/2 who knows. He was the runt of the litter in a trailer park of a village which had exactly 1 dog -- the mom. He was pure white, ended up to be 110 pounds of pure muscle. When he died I started going with 4spirit -- as in this nickname is in memory of him. Well -- when I joined the panthers board I added the saints to the mix because I did not want decieve the board on my ultimate loyalties.

My dog now is doberman/ rottie/ GS mix -- named arrow. For trivia -- arrow was the dog in a childrens show -- the land of point --- and referenced in the song Me and My Arrow.

God how I hated that!! :evil:

I remember some of them, though...

KP45Fan, SportYoungblood, Focker

Not sure who else changed, but I'm sure there were others...

On most boards, I'm SCPantherfan.(I'm from SC-So pretty easy to figure out)

Darth Waya is a play on two things-One I'm obviously a fan of Star Wars, and Two, whenever somebody would put up one of those silly "How Evil Are You?" or "What Movie Villain are you?" quizzes, I'd score insanely evil every time (One said my heart was as black as Vader's helmet) or get Vader. So the Darth is a play on that.

Waya is the Cherokee word for wolf, and my Yahoo screen name is Waya Ohni or "First Wolf"(I wanted something guaranteed to be unique and that reflected my heritage)

When I registered here, SCPantherfan was taken, so I picked Darth Waya as part of an ongoing joke from the other board.

    • Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.
    • If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?
    • Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
