Or was it something made up here and got too catchy to stop?

As fans we make nicknames for the players, ya think brees just said hey going into the playoffs i want you to call me breesus. Obviously he didn't but every continues to call it him.

Yeah but Breesus makes a tad bit more sense as a fan-friendly gesture because it manipulates his name into something else, it take one meaning of a word and changing it to something else..
That like calling (Reggie Bush), (Reggie Beans) lol
Ala
(Chris Ivory) (Chris Ivy).. Ivory and Ivy is two different words.

I just think it's people who just grew up mispronouncing Poison Ivy, my mom use to say it Poison Ivory as well as funny as it was she knew it was Ivy and not Ivory..
I understand what the were trying to do it just didn't sound right.

Im just saying!..

Not everyone, I detest that nickname. And Drew's not very fond of it either.
