    Mathis isn't listed. His nickname is Cletus, or Clintinho.

    Where's David James? He's Dracula because he's afraid of crosses.

    I can't believe it. They've got DARREN SAWATSKY in that list, and no sign of Clintinho, Run-DMB, or Big Bad Brad! And they list John Harkes as "Captain America" with no mention of Claudio Reyna!

    Oh, entirely too long! :D

    No actually, I thought the Dracula nickname was well known, at least around these parts.

    Notice:

    A.) Several of the nicknames mentioned are used as derogitory names from other supporters (i.e. Rangers-Huns, Boca-Bosteros)

    B.) They have the U.S. down as Sam's Army

    Sebastian "El Loco" Abreu (Cruz Azul)
    Marco Antonio "El Diablo" Etcheverry (D.C. United)
    Marcelo "Celo" Delgado (Boca Juniors)
