Nickname seeks Indian vote — "Fridge Magnet"

via blogs.roanoke.com (Google image search of "indians fridge magnet")


The nominations are in. The arduous seventy-four-hour process of culling the near-interminable list of suggested recipients to the nine below is finished. The bunting has been hung. The volunteers obliged. The voting rolls opened anew. The meatballs loved.

From these hallowed few you must choose one. Like The Highlander (perhaps a future moniker?), there can be only one ... former or present Cleveland Indian now known as "Fridge Magnet." Weigh the options carefully, consider the pros and cons of each worthy aspirant with full respect, and let loose the machinations of digital democracy.

Then and only then will the black white smoke curl from the figurative chimney of nicknamehood, and a new Indian will take his place in our Hall of Handle Heroes!

So, unlike the foolhardy and reckless, Walter Donovan, do not choose poorly.

Someone needs to break this tie.

And for you Casey Blake-ites, keep in mind that there are better beard-related nicknames out there for him.

Even though I prompted Ryan Garko, I voted Grady Sizemore. I thought about it, and if my household were to have an Indians-related fridge magnet, it would be Grady. And my fiancée would have chosen it.

Matt LaPorta is the bane of my existence.
