    Seems like we dont have as many great nicknames anymore
    very true...now it seems that nicknames are comprised of initials, shortening of a name, a number, or some combination of that...
    ex) DWade - Dwyane Wade
    CP3 - Chris Paul

    just no imagination...

    #24 — “The Flying Housewife” Fanny Blankers-Koen



    Origin:The track events at the 1948 Summer Olympic Games in London got a bit more interesting when Dutch runner Fanny Blankers-Koen tied on her spikes. She was 30 years old, a mother of two children, and ready to kick some serious tail. Blankers-Koen ended up winning four gold medals at the games, which propelled her to international fame as the wife and mother who outran everyone else.



    And while the picture of Fanny below may not suggest it, she was a confirmed MILTF. (A mom I’d like to do track and field with. Duh.)
