Lions and Tigers and Bears, oh meh. We can do better. Contribute a clever sports team nickname!

The San Antonio Banderas

The Albuquerque Isotopes did. :slight_smile:

The Oakland No Theres.

The Havana Negillahs.
The Albuquerque Kookaburras.
The Walla Walla Kookaburras.
Although it really should be cheating to use “Walla Walla”. And “Kookaburra”.

The Washington Campaigners

A question that idiots tend to think will be a “gotcha” for Navarrese is “what’s the only professional soccer team in Spain that’s got a Basque name”. Osasuna, Pamplona’s team, means Health or Well-being in Basque.

I still have never been able to get one of those idjits to explain why they whink we wouldn’t know it :confused: Do they think we’ll believe it was picked by tossing Scrabble letters in the air until they came down pronunceable? But in any case, it’s a great name… for detecting morons.

Not clever team nicknames that already exist.
mmm

We did this earlier this month

How about names for the cheerleading squads?

I always thought the Rams should name theirs “The Embraceable Ewes”.

French Lick Orgasms

What about the Sweet Somethings of Somewhere?

The New York Minutes.

Wow, we sure did. Don’t know how I missed that.
mmm

Panama Reds
Acapulco Golds

Istanbul Shits

Jackson Ofabitches
