Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

"Dirty 30"

I hadn't heard that before, but I just read about it in [URL="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/12/17/AR2007121701763.html"]an article quoting Marcus Washington[/URL]:

[QUOTE]Several defensive players supported rookie safety LaRon Landry a day after the first-round pick was flagged for another 15-yard penalty in a key situation Sunday night. "I like it, I like the attitude," linebacker Marcus Washington said. "Guys watched that last night on TV and they watch film and [U]it kind of strikes a little fear in them when [B]'Dirty 30'[/B] is back there[/U]. It definitely sends a message." Defensive end Phillip Daniels agreed. "He reminds you of somebody, don't he?" Daniels asked. "He reminds you of Sean Taylor a little bit. He's just got to be smart."[/QUOTE]

I searched, but didn't find anything (actually, I found 400 threads, but that's a bit too many to look through).

I assume it's a "dirty south" reference, and not a "Roy Williams" reference. I like it!

I like it.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

Only problem with it is I think B-Mitch was nick-named dirty-30. I dont know what the unspoken rules are in regards to nick-names of previous players, but Im sure the 'soft spoken' B-Mitch will let them know, lol.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

I like it, he's definitely a little ball of fire. I like how GW puts him near the line of scrimmage and then he squirts back and plays center field...he is one fast SOB.

According to "King822" [URL="http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=71&f=1348&t=1669580#s=71&f=1348&t=1669580"]over at The Scout[/URL], Mitchell got the nickname in Philly. If true, then that definitely wouldn't count.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

Sounds great, but it's just the type of nickname that will attract more attention to a guy the league is already looking for an excuse to punish.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

In one of the post games, BM said (essentially) "Well, he can't use Dirty-30 cause that was MY nickname." BM admitted he got the name in Philly but said that didn't matter b/c its a league thing. Ray Brown seemed to concur with BM's take.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

He's our dirty 30.

Who cares about B-Mitch now anyway.

how the hell can any eagle fan call someone dirty? with how many years of Andre Waters, the cheapest sob around, playing safety for them. and Jon Runyon isn't exactly a clean player, either

Yeah, B-Mitch needs to shut up and go hang out with LaVar

By the way, while Ray Brown's insight hasn't really been special, I actually have enjoyed his commentary on the Redskins report on Comcast. He's got a good tv presence.

I think he meant that Duce gave him the nickname when Mitchell was [U]on[/U] the E-girls squad, not when he was playing for the Skins.

Now how in the heck do you know that the NFL is looking to punish LL. These comments are so old.

Well if another lineman goes down we may need him to play against Dallas and in the playoffs.

Even MORE reason to ignore him. Who cares what nickname Mitchell got while playing for the Eagles?

He either needs to shut up or find a way to quickly become more relevant.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

I love it. The only reason I even like Al Harris at all is because they call him "Dirty-One" (He's #31). As for it getting any extra attention, bah humbug on that. He may draw some flags, but its worth it to me if receivers start short arming passes.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

Whats with all the negativity towards B-Mitch? Yeah he gets on my nerves sometimes when hes talking smack about the Skins after a loss, but Ive read FAR worse on this very board after losses. The man had a great career here and is a great Redskin. Anyway, just curious.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

B Mitch rubs people the wrong way because he's extremely outspoken, stubborn, and arrogant. And he sometimes tends to act like he's the greatest thing that ever happened to the Redskins and refuses to consider the opinions of others. Furthermore, he tends to say things just to get a rise and without much consideration for the validity of his statements.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

Dirty thirty is also a nickname for a thirty pack of my favorite cheap beer, Keystone Light.

Keystone had it first Brian. Did anyone notice his initials are BM? Like what comes out of his mouth whenever he talks.

Re: Landry's nickname in the locker room
 

Dude...... Keystone light is disgusting
