    Having been involved in quite a few negotiations in Finland, I must admit I've never heard anyone being called "isovittu" before. One does not get that title just because of tough negotiations. I'd say it tells more about losing respect than just being tough.

    What I love the most about this, is how Finnish Ilta-Sanomat tried to get hold of Tommi to confirm did they actually called Märtin with this name. I would love to hear the wording of the journalist when asking this from Tommi :-)

    Maybe something along the lines of

    Tommi: Mitäääää?

    Journalist: Se on Mauri Mopo Ilta-Sanomista tässä terve! Tommi, kuultiin luotettavasta lähteestä että annoitte Märtinille hellittelynimen "Iso Vittu" kun Tänakin sopimusneuvottelut alkoivat mennä päin persettä. Vahvistatko?

    Tommi: *ends the call*

    Journalist: *writes that he couldn't get hold of Tommi*
