Steven Kruijswijk's nickname

[boomcie]

I started this poll because some people have difficulties spelling his name and because some nicknames have been suggested today.

I did not make up any of these nicknames myself.

Apparently a few of the guys that voted TASK actually like TASK-force. Just a heads up.

@boomcie

Did you vote for Love Boat?? Such a weird name

EDIT: I voted Stevo, as I think it's the easiest and that TASK reminds too much of TGBM

 

[Publicus]

Question: how do you pronounce his last name?

Suggest at will please.

Special K?

Stevie k3w1?

Captain Potassium?


I don't know. I have no idea how guys get their nicknames. Cricket? Spartacus? Badger?

Apparently some guys at Podiumcafe are already calling him that. I did not make this sh*t up. Nevertheless, I find it to be rather funny.

Yes, I think it evolved from "Cruise Ship" to "Love Boat".

Stevo or Stevie is his nickname within the team, so I suggest calling him that.

i have no idea why love boat but its much better then steve. besides with love boat there are so many puns we can use during the race

Hahaha @ the whispering!!!

 

[taiwan]

Special K?

Excellent.

.......

 

[boomcie]

Yeah, that was funny.

Why on earth would you need a whispering voice to pronounce something?

 

[Parrulo]

Excellent.

.......

if we are going that way. placebo would be better then special k

It's a shame Tom Cruise already got dibs on the Cruise Missile (it works better in Dutch, the Kruijsraket). The TASK-force is the best alternative.

 

[Michielveedeebee]

Kruijsraket is really awesome

(TASK-force is cool as well but we already have TGBM)

Loveboat is meh
Stevo not bad.

I vote Kruijsraket

 

[El Pistolero]

I'm going to call him Stewie from now on.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Gesink had a different one.

Die Rooie uit Nuenen.
"That red one from Nuenen"

 

[Jamsque]

Special K?

I like this better than any in the poll.

 

[Spine Concept]

Another vote for Special K here. Either that or simply Stevo.

 

[More Strides than Rides]

Using Special K just feels good to me...



But really, I don't think his name is that hard to begin with. Throw in a few J's and its pretty straight forward. Its the many nicknames that make things difficult.

Special K makes him sound like a participant for the Special Olympics.

Also, Jens Keukeleire's name is more special.

Also, Jens Keukeleire's is more special.

Kruijswijk has more potential in his right eyebrow than Keukeleire in his whole body. That's just another one in a dozen typical belgian sprinter / cobble rider from the 4th row.
Don't hijack this thread with him

I was kind of talking about his name, which was supposed to be obvious. Why would I make such a foolishly outlandish claim?

Edited my post and added the word name. Cool it now.

I actually like this one since it's close to Stevie which is already his nick within the team. Stevie as my 2nd choice.

His nickname within the team is Stevo if I'm not mistaken. I've seen several tweets, especially from Gesink, referring to him using that name.
