Inappropriate Team Name

Postby ROBERTLATORRE » Mon Dec 08, 2008 7:49 pm

[quote:767605e68e="ehlekev"]Rob, let me guess..............this guy has a really low rating......right?? This is why I stay in theme leagues with buddies. My TSN friends are tasteless, tactless, and just demented. However, not even they would come up with something as heinous as that garbage for a team name.

The guy needs to go to TSN jail.

Hi Kev, yep low rating, my only take is people are somewhat anonymous in an environment like this and decide to let their inner idiot come out.

Yeah...we post our trash in private league mail!

I will claim the first 2 adjectives but FrankM earns/deserves the last. :wink:

I know you're being tongue in cheek, but let's not tar all the low-raters with the same brush. Most of us in the low rent district of SOM ratings are looking for the same excitement that you are, just a few years later. Some of us are even reasonably, well, somewhat, umm...make that occasionally vital members of our community. And some of us are not exactly fond of inappropriate names either. Hope to see you in a league soon.

Definitely no offense intended, newcomers are vital for sure, and some of the managers that I have the best interactions with have only a dozen or so teams so far.

Lord knows I am sick of losing to the same guys over and over again in the 80's leagues ;-)

Those of us who log on waaaay too much at work really don't appreciate the inappropriate names either.

I guess no one here watched the show Arrested Development?

I agree it's inappropriate, but national television allowed it. The character played by David Cross, "Tobias Fumke" had a dual practice, he was an Analyst-Therapist. He shortened it for his business cards because he was too cheap to pay for every letter. Hence the inappropriate name - and pretty freaking funny if you knew the show.

Not appropriate minus the context but it made me smile...
