Flacco does not equal Montana!!!
This is going to be breif and quick, and i just want to get this off my chest... STOP CALLING JOE FLACCO JOE COOL!!! That is Montana's nickname not Joe Flaccos'. Montana led his team to the playoffs almost every year and won 3 Superbowls. Joe Flacco has a long way to go before he is even in the same plateau as Montana. I like Flacco and I think he is a very good rookie QB, but he is not Montana. So to all the announcers and sport commentators who inhabit this planet, STOP CALLING JOE FLACCO JOE COOL!!!
Be creative and give him his own, ORIGINAL, nickname!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would you then agree that Ladanian Tomlinson should be LDT or something other than LT? Because there is only one LT.

But those are their initials...
Lawrence Taylor is a beast and while Ladanian Tomlinson (who probably will also be a HOF) isn’t as much of a monster at his position, Tomlinson has accomplished alot more than Flacco has. Also those are their good given initials, we do the same with AP. Lastly they play at different positions and i don’t think anybody is comparing those two against each other. Flacco and Montana both play/played QB, and the announcers are blatantly giving Montana’s nickname to Flacco in a comparative strive.

Joe Cool
If you want to get really technical about it, isn’t this the original Joe Cool?

Actually that's Joe Camel, or "old joe"
Also Joe Camel wasn’t created till 1987. So Joe “Cool” Montana, was before Joe Camel.

I've already championed that cause
I firmly believe that LDT should be referred to as LDT.
I also believe that Manny Lawson should only and always be referred to as ManLaw. And Miller should hire him as a spokesman.

I yelled at the TV when that happened. Then I thought, “lotsa guys are probably called that… I mean, it sounds like a common nickname…”
But then I still didn’t like it.

I gave it a “Oh, come on” when they said that, but if I got worked up every time football announcers said something stupid, I wouldn’t have time to breathe.

anyone named Joe will be called Joe Cool
but if they actually compare him to Montana is any substantive way, then we have something to snarl at.

Seriously, you guys have nothing better to do than worry about Joe Flacco being called “Joe Cool” (which has to be one of the dumbest nicknames ever) and LaDainian Tomlinson being called LT?
Oh, did you hear that? I think I heard someone in my office call someone “Bar None”, rally the forces. How dare they disgrace William Floyd in their unoriginality!

Dude
I heard a guy call someone “Fooch” today. I punched both of them in the face. There can only be one Fooch!
BTW, Fooch, if you got punched in the face today, sorry.

I'd have done the same.
Except I wouldn’t punch the REAL Fooch in the face. I’d know better.

Good to know
I did not get punched in the face today. I’m curious who else would possibly be called Fooch. God would obviously strike said person down immediately! Does that mean you’re god for striking them down??

Obviously he’s the Hand of God. Back home we call him St. Rampage the Apostle.
