'Teen Wolf' Inspires Bucs DE to Change Name
The Sporting Blog — ... That’s a good point. The name Greg White rings no bells for me. But Stylez G. White? That’s unforgettable. The best part of the whole thing is White’s inspiration: Teen Wolf. Jerry Levine plays a character in the film named Rupert “Stiles” Stilinski, who is Scott Howard’s (Michael J. Fox) best friend. The only way White could make this more outstanding would be to show up to the Bucs' next game wearing a “ ...

STYLEZ G. WHITE > CHAD OCHO CINCO
With Leather — In yesterday afternoon’s hottest blog news, Buccaneers defensive end Greg White officially changed his name to Stylez G. White, thus relegating Chad Ocho Cinco’s exercise in Spanglish to second place on the year-end list of great NFL name changes.  What was White’s reasoning? “You can always remember Stylez White,” White said. “Greg White, nobody knows Greg White.” Even better, the inspiration came from the Teen Wolf character Rupert “Stiles” Stilinski. “That was his best friend’s name,’’ White said. “I always liked that name. It’s not that I don’t ...

NFL Players Legally Changing their Name: Cry for Help or a New Fad?
The Big Lead — Hey, we enjoy Teen Wolf as much as the next guy. Stiles, obviously, ruled. But to legally change your name to that of a movie character? Greg White - yeah, we’d never heard of him, either - is the second NFL player this season to change his name (the other was a slightly bigger deal). Like deaths, name changes come in threes. Next up: Tashard Choice is going to become Taster’s Choice, LaBrandon Toefield will switch his name to Thumbs and Toefield, and Early Doucet will change his middle name from Joseph to Late, and be known as Early Late Doucet.

Stylez G. White used to play for the Gophers
Randball — white.JPG Take a good look at that picture. Are you a Gophers football historian? Do you recognize that forlorn pose? It’s a defensive player after a crushing overtime loss to Purdue in 2001 . That player went on to play in the NFL and still performs in the league today. Any clue? He plays for Tampa Bay. Does that help? You say it does? You say that’s Greg White, former Gopher sackmaster and current Bucs defensive end? Well, sir, you are … wrong! That is not Gregory Alphonso White, Jr. That, friends, is Styles G. White. Yes, colleague Mark Craig wrote about this yesterday on his NFL blog , but we had to take a good look inside this breathtaking decision to change his name to Stylez ...

Naming Yourself After Teen Wolf Characters Never Goes Out Of Stiles
TheScore.com Blog —   Do you see what I did with the title there? See, now that's clever. Almost. But what I think we can all probably agree is not particularly clever is what Tampa Bay Bucaneers defensive end Greg White did on Monday. Or more correctly... what Tampa Bay Bucaneers defensive end Stylez G. White did on Monday. That's right. White had his name legally changed to Stylez-- which, though he changed the spelling slightly, is seriously a reference to Michael J. Fox's best friend in Teen Wolf. I will grant you, if you're going to name yourself after a character in Teen Wolf, it had damn well better be Stiles, but still... still... the whole ...

Will Vikings’ Punter Change Name To ‘Warcraft?’
SPORTSbyBROOKS — We all thought Chad Johnson was crazy when he changed his name to Ocho Cinco. We thought Greg White was weird and a little obsessed with “Teen Wolf” when he changed his name to Stylez G. White . But those are large, strong men, who we would never dare make fun of to their face. But what if you met a punter named World of Warcraft ? Warcraft Jersey That’s Chris Kluwe of the Vikings, who’s either the biggest video game nerd in the world, or the shrewdest businessman in the world. Can you imagine how many people would buy an officially licensed jersey with “Warcraft” on the back? On the other hand, there might be a few extra ...
