In the Illinois post game, I asked for suggestions for AJ Hammons' nickname. So many ham puns. You guys are the best. Let's look at what we have so far:

 

I try not to play favorites, but this guy is my favorite BS reader. Everyone else is playing for second place.  

@BoiledSports isn't "7 Feet of Ham" obvious?

More awesome submissions after the break:

The standard nickname:

@aneeshswamy @BoiledSports Hambone, duh. #AJnicknames

@BoiledSports "Ham Bone". Has a working class ring to it.

Simple, effective. Also, apparently people didn't like my suggestion of THE GREEK GOD OF AUTHORITATIVE OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS:

@BoiledSports #HammonsNickname The Hammer. Easy and rolls off the tongue. The Greek God Of Authoritative Rebounds doesn't really flow.

Rhyme time. Also, much love for the GWOH props.

@BoiledSports How about "The Hamma-Jamma?" I'm also a fan of "The Great Wall of Hammons."

Someone's hungry:

@boiledsports Hammons phrase could be, "Get me a Ham slamwich!" ... Yikes.

.@ATC_Boilermaker how about just Ham Slammich? @phoenyx29

@BoiledSports "The Ham-on Whole Wheat Slamwich" ... I went too far.

So regal. I love it:

Indecision:

@BoiledSports The Hammonster.

@BoiledSports No No No, The Hammonstrosity

So many ham-puns:

Somewhat racial, but forests are pretty scary:

Alliteration:

But seriously...this one is my favorite. Not even close:
