We are changing leagues this year (for reasons of voting off-island one of our team mates who is very nice but we are not her therapist. And since her husband sponsored our team, the nick name is now no longer needed.)
We are a five women team. That bowls. In Michigan. ( This sounds like the beginning of some Indy/horror film.) Maybe I should just kill myself now.
My first choice is:\*\* U Fook Dup.\*\*
But I am open to options of anything.

League bowler, soon to be ex-league president checking in here.
Hmm…you’re going to have to throw a little more description about your team in here. I’m having a hard time thinking of anything original.
“Half a Rack” comes to mind for some reason…

Well, we are moms and that is about our one common tie.
Sarcasm and humor are prevelant when we bowl.
Man, we are pathetic.

“The Achievers”
Am I wrong to assume that everyone who bowls has watched “The Big Lebowski” a thousand times and will get that reference instantly?

For years I bowled in the “Wednesday Night Mixed Nuts” league. Everybody was the Walnuts, Peanuts, Bowling Nuts, etc. One year we named our team **The Left Nuts**. It was pretty well-received.

You’re in Michigan…how close to Bay City? You could be the **Bay City Rollers** , haha!
Ok, that’s a stretch…how about **Women with Big Balls**?

You’re all women? Then your name has to be [The Sorority Babes](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096142/).
Someone will get it.

Estrobowl. or maybe as two words Estro Bowl. That might work best if you were in Houston, though.
