    Surprised by the lack of comments about "Cowboy" Craig Waibel roughnecking that unlucky Rev to the ground after a little shirt tugging & arm pulling. Since he only got a yellow on the play:

    Way to rope the doggie, Cowboy!

    Oh hell no! Hell no!

    You DID NOT go there!

    Troy is the only Cowboy on this team! Goose could be considered a cowboy too, being from Texas and all. But he is not Cowboy.

    Yeah! Troy will be the only one EVER to be our cowboy! Waibel's good, but he's not a skilled enough defender to be called a nickname. :mad:

    I only said that cuz some article somewhere makes mention of those two as the cowboy's on our defense. Someone can probably dig it up somewhere. Didn't want to insult the Goose either. He can be a cowboy. But there's only one Cowboy.

    I think that Waibel is the new cowboy, and from here on, Dayak's nickname is the "White Rhyno".

    Oscar's nick name was Cowboy. Partly because he was from Tejas, and partly because he was a cowboy, more or less.

    And that was back in the day when we all called Troy "The Beast!"

    But now with Oscar long gone (and good riddance I might add), Troy has returned to the fold in a Cowboy guise.

    If we need a nickname for Waibel we might want to pick something from WWF. Call him The Terminator or some such. That was a cool head tackle on a very deserving Kamler. The only that really surprises me is that no one has thrown Kamler to the ground before!

    GO QUAKES!!

    Troy is still THE BEAST!

    Waibel kinda reminds me of Goldberg.

    Waibel is a Hack. That's his nickname. He's played well, but his play still earns the nickname Hack.

    If Agoos is a cowboy, he's a Swedish cowboy. Swedish cowboys wear ponytails.

    I gasp... have to agree with IBT. Troy maybe Cowboy off the field but his play this year has proved he is still THE BEAST!!

    Agoos has a new lease on life now that he's cut his hair. He's playing better than ever.

    Wow! Sorry for getting folks riled up over calling Waibel a cowboy. The nickname is hereby rescinded.

    I still loved the play, though.

    Yeah, sort of, except Craig's not dripping HGH and testosterone.

    Waibs brilliantly executed the finishing maneuver ("the bulldog") of one Dustin Rhodes, when he was in WCW, before he became Golddussssssssssssssst. Now I think it's one of Trish Stratus' finishers. So maybe we should call Waibs "Trish." :)

    I thought it was a stupid way to get a yellow. Waibel is halfway to his first suspension in 4 games. A defender needs to save his yellows for a goal saving tackle or to at least intimidate his opponent. Putting a player in a headlock isn't going to intimidate them, probably just get them to see if they can make you react stupidly again and get sent off.

    When Waibel bulldogs someone down, we have to refer to it as the "Stratusfaction."

    Goldberg on defense and Eric Bischoff in goal? How much more WCW can we get?
