Big Baby’s New Nickname Is …

The people have spoken. After tons of official entries and lots of back and forth in the comments section of the site to give Big Baby a new nickname, it came down to two potential winners. The first was Poppi Gee‘s entry of the “The Gooch” (the invisible bully from “Different Strokes”), followed by write-in candidate “The Big Thicket,” which earns points for creativity.

So who won?

Glen’s new nickname is The Gooch!

The definition from UrbanDictionary.com:

1. Name of a bully who used to bother Arnold from the sit-com, “Different Strokes”.

2. Nickname for James Giugliano, a person who used to bully people in the same fashion.

“Watch out for the gooch son!”

(Note: We do not mean the Johnny Knoxville use of the term)

Congrats to Poppi Gee, we will hook you up with a prize from the office.

    congrats to gee for winning, can’t be mad at you for that. BUT, i don’t think we should be giving this cry baby clown a new nickname just because he’s been acting like i BIG BABY. So that being said, hope this new nickname does NOT stick. Glen “Big Baby” Davis for life! he’s got no game anyway. What kids are goin to school the day after a Celtics game and sayin, “Hey man did you catch those 9 min Big Baby played last night? Those 2 boards he had were ferocious!”

    Green Acres Davis

    Glen Dunkin Do-Davis

    Stay-Puft Davis

    Glen Buddha Davis

    The Big Meal Ticket
    Double Whopper Davis

    You know what, your little contest may be over, but fuck the dumb shit, from now on I dub thee:

    Glen “GRAVY TRAIN” Davis

  • baron

    The term GRAVY TRAIN also refers to obtaining a windfall. Along with this reference, you might also hear the term “MEAL TICKET.”

    Another common use of the term gravy train is to describe a person’s ability to make a lot of money with a minimal investment of time, effort, or resources. Acting, singing, or otherwise performing, PLAYING PROFESSIONAL SPORTS, creating an invention and collecting royalties, or making lucrative investments are often considered gravy train activities.

  • smack dat

    I’d rather settle for the Knoxville definition.

    After all, he is as irrelevant as a gooch.

  • Tha Best

  • Tino

    Maybe Dime should run a contest once a month on giving a NBA player a new nickname.

  • Moon

    You guys copied SLAM with this one…nice!

  • Mike

    I think I will just call him “The Douche”.

  • heechul

    shoulda been stretchmarks

  • budz

    bobo nyo naman!

  • Sweet English

    You bitch when some no name who doesnt read Dime wins a competition

    You Bitch when one of Dimes longest posters and readers actually makes a valid (hilarious) entry and wins something.

    :::HAAAAAAATTTTTEEEEEEERRRRSSSSSS::

    (P.S Anyone who watched the first Jackass Movie should know that ‘The Gooch’ is also the name for the area of skin between your sack and your hole, I’m gonna assume POPPI new this)

    And GEE what happened to the ‘New Name Every Day’ era?

    That and Tyrone (O.G) were the only reason i used to read the comment section.

  • http://twitter.com/PoppiGEE POPPI GEE

    Sweet English I had to go to one name because it took to long for my comments to get posted with a new program Dime is using I guess.

    When I would try to switch it up everyday I would get “Your comments are being moderated” lol. Then by the time they would post, my comment would be irrelevant.

    So now the new era is just 1 name.

    Yea I enjoyed Tyrone’s comments too.

    True Thugs never Lie lol.

  • http://www.WhyCandaceWhySheldon.thatbastard.com Chicagorilla

    Oh snap. I forgot about $h!tty Ty.

    He would have came up with some dopey nicknames

    Glen “True Thugs never lie” Davis
    Glen “He be dishin dem dopey dimes” Davis.

    Damn you Tyrone for leaving DIME, Dammmmnnn yooouuuuu!!!!

  • life-p

    Now who’s going to tell Glen his new nickname is the Gooch?

  • Sweet English

    Sorry POPPI but Tyrone just topped your nickname through the medium of Chicagorilla.

    Dishin’ Dem Dopey Dimes Davis

    Genius.

    It’s funny cos it’s ironic.

  • Sweet English

    Speaking of Dime posters who i will always miss, does this make anyone nostalgic?…

    ‘Hi Hi its the big jurgy jurg from the denmark! Remember Dime, Jurgy has his top 10 euroleague players! Hi Hi everybody!’

  • http://www.WhyCandaceWhySheldon.thatbastard.com Chicagorilla

    lmao@Sweets

    yeah i remember that cat.

  • http://twitter.com/PoppiGEE POPPI GEE

    Jurg was crazy lol Young fed too with his daily songs of the day.

    Hey Tyrone will make a every 4 to 6 months comment.

    life-p I am sure he got a fb or twitter page lol and knowing him he actually checks his stuff. I am sure somehow it will be ran by him.
