    Keep the nicknames rolling in!

    I'll probably find a way to count everyone who's contributed, even if their 'main list' only has a few names - but for those of you who only made mention of a few gems, I still hope you find the time to make a more proper list. I think this should make for a fun video, and I appreciate the contributions!

    Looking forward to it Rambunctious Rummy.

    Befitting or not, that rolls off the tongue nicely.

    Rambunctious Rummy

    And

    Our Rummy

    With all these Schoolboys, we’re going to need to bring in Professor Azumah Nelson to teach class.

    Aside from his true bonafides as a boxer I think “The Problem Child” as applied to Jake Paul was quite clever.
