As any fan of the US sports leagues know, they tend to give names to the teams (Or Franchises, anyway), that suits the city/state of the team/franchise. Obviously this is not a rule, but that´s what they usually do, or at least try to do, and it makes all sense, it´s just plain logical in the end, if we think well.
BUT....Obviously they look for the BEST aspects of the city/state when choosing a name for a team/franchise, that´s also logical, but I was wondering for some time already, what would be like a US sports league whose teams/franchises had more realistic names? And not worrying about trying to make it "Look Good"?
Thinking about that, with my typical sarcasm/dark humor/whatever way to think, I ended up making a list of how such league would be:
Washington
Zionists
New York Lunatics
New Jersey Trash
Utah Poligamics
Texas Barbecues
Los Angeles Chaos
Boston Irish
Miami Junkies
Arizona 51ers
Atlanta Turner
Nebraska Cornfields
Seattle Grungers
Philadelphia Cheesesteaks
Chicago Urbans
Milwaukee Hicks
Orlando Mickeys
Colorado Snowflakes
Dallas Stolen Territories
Indiana Averagers
Who would you support there???? Hahahaha.
PS: This was not intended to offend anyone, but if you felt offended...Well, that´s YOUR problem, not mine, so just deal with it.
