[Edit: If you were on the OOTP 11 boards recently, you may have seen some comments about inane nicknames in the game that I made, and one that I used as an example was "Cookie Monster." How did that get in the file, I wondered? Well, I happened to notice just now that, according to Baseball Reference, Ortiz's other nickname is, sure enough, "Cookie Monster." BoSox fans, care to explain this?  ] |
I live in Boston. I've seen that on Baseball Reference, too. But I've never heard that nickname said before. Sounds like B.S. to me.
