The Toledo Rockets anagram roster
Boise State faces Toledo on Friday night (6:00 p.m., ESPN), and to get you ready for the game, I ran the Toledo roster through an anagram server. Draw your own conclusions (on Toledo, not on how I choose to spend my time).
Actual analysis will come later on throughout the week. But for now, wordplay! Take it away, Castle Doctor.
An anagram is like a word jumble; you take the letters from a word or phrase and mix them up to see what other words or phrases you can come up with. Try it for yourself.
The Rockets had the privilege (?) of getting the anagram treatment last year when they visited Bronco Stadium. Many great anagram names return. Many were lost. Here is this year's Toledo anagram gang:
Terrell Anderson
Lantern Solderer

Acorns Liker

I too, am a Nacho Monster
Is it counterintuitive to root for both Boise State and the Yankees?

Christian Smith...
Nice try, Christian. (Quite the opposite, eh?)
At least now we know who the Antichrist is.
Mango yams!
Delicious!

Ninja Medal
Ha.
"Moore took a knee. It was an act of mercy. Boise State didn't need style points. It had proven itself the superior program long before." - Andy Staples for SI on BSU vs UGA
"Kellen Moore definitely looks like a left-handed Drew Brees. He just sits back and reads a defense like it was the Cat in the Hat." - RusDawg
And now, a short story from Mikrino.
This is a story about the Nacho Monster, and his quest for the prestigious Ninja Medal. The Ninja Medal was a yearly award, handed out to the best and most prolific assassin. Every assassin was evaluated on their stealth, calculation, preparation, and accuracy. And Nacho Monster was the best. Not everyone in the land agreed that he was the best, some thought another assassin, Panicky Slims was a better candidate. He was from a more recognized group out west. And while he looked great and was well represented, Nacho Monster was simply a better assassin. Although he was a bit of a dork, but that added to his charm.
Antichrists Him, a “personality” who reported regularly on all the assassins thought his own son, Yea Honk, was a top assassin. But there were some Archery Mules who thought differently and locked him in a dark tool shed. Antichrists, was so angry he hired a public relations firm to get the Archery Mules replaced. He never gave Nacho Monster much credit, or his team of assassins. Even when he did applaud Nacho’s skill, it was always backhanded. Most people just thought it was parental angst, since Yea Honk was such a poor assassin himself.
As the season progressed, Nacho took out each target with ease, always maintaining his poise and accuracy that he’d become known for. This is a true story, and the end is yet to be written. Stay tuned in the coming weeks to see how it turns out. Until then, get your self an Icy Thermos and lose the Anger Smirk caused by Antichrists Him. Because Nacho Monster may be a dork assassin, but he is also surrounded by nothing more than Man Dolls.
Boise is so efficient they are terrifying. If you have a weakness, they will find it, even if it takes them a quarter or two to size you up proper-like. The Anderson Silva of football offenses, if you will. - Spencer Hall, The Alphabetical Week 1, 2011
