Matty Ice is the best nickname possible.. who wouldn't want a nickname resembling canned [censored].


If Matt Ryan ever signed an endorsement deal with Natty Ice or Natty Light - it would blow my mind and be one of the best things ever.

Bleed S&G - I'd send you a case to commemorate the event :wink:
Or we could share a couple when the Dawgs play the Bucs in the 2010 BCS title game

The "Matty Ice" crap was bordering on Ryan "Big Tex" Mallett levels of annoying. Nothing worse than an announce crew trying to get a nickname to stick.

Since Ryan mentioned it was a nickname he got in high school, the assumption I made was that the nickname derived from he and his friends drinking "Natty Ice" back then. With that thought in mind (whether it's accurate or not), I found it pretty funny that a couple clueless broadcasters in Collinsworth and Hammond kept referring to him by his "Matty Ice" nickname over and over, since there was no reason either of them would draw that correlation.

Probably a little far-fetched on my part, but I was watching it with my brother at the time, and while I was thinking it, my brother said, "Geez, I wonder what kind of beer he and his friends drank in high school."

Yes, the other obvious explanation is that he has "ice running through his veins" and all those cliches, but I like beer an awful lot so I'm sticking with my theory. Maybe if Ryan loses a lot of weight they can call him "Matty Light."

Edit: In the time it took me to type this, I'm glad to see that some of you are on the same page as me. :lol:

I'm pretty sure the "Ice" part comes from being cool under pressure. Matt Ryan would never touch a drop of alcohol and prefers studying game film and quiet evenings at home with his girlfriend.

He (like Dorthy Mantooth) is a saint!
