You are so correct Iron-head. I want a name that not only identify Reggie but some New Orleans culture as well. Flambeau is New Orleans culture, baby matrix is Hornywood. That don't sound right but Joe Horn.

I'm finding that since Katrina folk, have been getting a lil bit of education about New Orleans. However, they make the mistake of testing me with their new TV knowledge. So I kick their question up a notch, just to see how much they really know. "They didn't mention that" is usually their response. Checkmate, go to the back of the line buddy.

No, it wasnt. He got the name "Johnny" later, after the "Number Five is Alive" quote. Your 80's movie trivia god has spoken.

Hornywood would be a good name for Ron Jeremy's new adult theme park... Donk ask what the roller coaster looks like.

i think REGGIE is all we need. When he is finishing his first 80 yard sprint to the endzone in the dome on sep. 25 , I can't see us in the stands chanting BABY MATRIX! BABY MATRIX!!

So true. Just checked the burning bush has already been assigned to our former manager of the Univ. of New Orleans baseball team Randy Burning Bush 2000-2003,,by Mr. Berman.

Oh, I know what it is, you know what it is, most people who post here know what it is, but imagine ESPN, or Rome, or Packman et al, getting a hold of that nickname.

I should've explained it in the original post. My bad.
