That's pretty cool but ounce for ounce I think the Mantis Shrimp would kick it's butt. Can we draft a player nicknamed the Killer Mantis Shrimp next year?

That is where the nickname came from, and damn if it doesn't fit the crazy little bastard as he takes what he wants.

We will have to wait a year. Killer Mantis Shrimp is a sopohmore CB at the University of Houma, LA. 5'3 145, quicker than fast. Rated 15 in Sophomores with weird names in the 2015 NFL Draft posted by thenflisok.com.

Are you guys serious, some of you are just seeing Randall's video for the first time?

That is so 2011!! In fact, i was a honey badger for Halloween, 2011. My roommate bought a stuffed honey badger that plays quotes from the video that year.

Tyrann Matthieu got his nickname because of that video. I don't think he "got it", or maybe didn't like Randall's narration, hence he never really embraced the nickname.

Wow, i really can't believe anyone, particularly Cardinals fans after drafting Matthieu, hasn't seen that video. Funny stuff for sure! That particular upload has 62.5 million views!

I hadn't seen it until yesterday and I was a little surprised it hadn't been posted before considering the amount of hits it had.

I'm glad I stumbled across it. Good Stuff! :)

Just for the record, and maybe it's just me, but I don't do college ball (until they hit the playoff format next year). I don't even pay attention until before the draft when people on here mention college players (which is excellent coverage by the way). That being said, out of all the Mathieu videos posted on here this was the first time this one was posted.

It's a little like calling out ****'s who missed the Heidi game back in the day.

It had nothing to do with TM. It was a viral internet meme for a while, and was SOOO big that LSU fans started calling TM the Honey Badger on their boards, dropping the "doesn't give a ****" and "takes what he wants" quotes as well. Then broadcast announcers dropped "he takes what he wants" in connection to him as the Honey Badger.

Nobody posted it earlier probably because those who had seen it all assumed everyone knew that was the source of the nickname. :shrug:

But it's still super funny.
