Really, really stupid team nicknames

I ran across a minor league hockey website with franchises in cities that are best described as East Buttfuck. But the names...Jesus H. Christ. Is this rock bottom, or what?



Greenville Grrrowl
Pee Dee Pride
Columbia Inferno
South Carolina Stingrays
Florida Everblades
Macon Whoopees (Whatthefuck is a Whoopee?)
Columbus Cottonmouths

Louisiana IceGators (Alligator with skates. Right.)
Mississippi Sea Wolves
Pensacola Ice Pilots
New Orleans Brass
Mobile Mysticks
Jackson Bandits
Arkansas RiverBlades
Baton Rouge Kingfish (racist pigs)


Trenton Titans
Charlotte Checkers
Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies (vicious)
Roanoke Express
Richmond Renegades
Reading Royals
Greensboro Generals

Dayton Bombers
Peoria Rivermen
Johnstown Chiefs
Cincinnati Cyclones
Wheeling Nailers
Toledo Storm


"Hey Jacques, what team are you playin' for?"

"I play right wing for the Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies."
 
When Austin got our little hockey team I was mortified by the name. The Austin IceBats. *groan*
 
Hey I've seen the Dayton Bombers play... it's more like South West buttfuck.
 
The minor league baseball team in Lansing, Michigan is called the Lansing Lugnuts.
 
Hey!!! I've watched the Lugnuts play too!!!

Damn I need to get out more.
 
New Minor Legue team "The Brockton Rox"... Don't ask me why, I just think the name is stupid.
 
The one team name that always has me rolling my eyes is the Anahiem Mighty Ducks

Ignoring the fact they are named after a grade D kids movie series, the name Mighty Duck sets about as much fear and respect in my heart as seeing Webster put up an angry face.

The players on these teams probably cry when asked what they do for a living...


"I'm a whopopee..."

Consider the fact that the Mouse House owns them along with the Angels...a la "Angels in the Outfield"....Branding 101.

True, but the Angels name came way before the movie or Disney owning them.
 
did we say "weird"?

The New York Metropolitan Baseball Club Inc .... Became the NY Mets... became My Entire Team Sucks :p
 
29-25 isn't exactly stellar, but I can think of other teams that have worse records..

Like the Blue Jays.

*sigh*
 
Fourth from the bottom are the Johnstown Chiefs. (PA, you've heard of the floods there)

Once upon a time there was a team called the Johnstown Jets.
Paul Neuman made a movie there about a town & a team called the "Charlestown Chiefs". The movie was called Slapshot .
Some folks liked it so well they changed the name of the team to Chiefs.
 
Some of those handles are cool, I would be first in line to sport a Macon Whoopees's jersey

Ok a whoopee is a native American. Just thought I would let you know that. The minor league baseball team in Kissammee Florida is the Astros so thats the Kissammee Astros.

Of course that is what it is but it is also a native American. I think the Whoopees were in Georgia or something. They just use that too excuse the term.
 
St. Cloud RiverBats
Minnesota Gophers ( I like the teams but who would want to have a gopher as a mascot really?)
