What is the process on giving our teams clever names? New to league and I don't remember reading that in the rules. Are there names that are not allowed?

Not sure what the rules are, but there have been some good ones...



In My Opinion, the NFFC Football team with the best name was "Show us your TD's". The faster you say it, the more fun it is to say.

Any names that are profane or offensive aren't allowed. Common sense dictates.

The following cannot be used in a NFBC team name:



NO REFERENCES TO SEXUAL PREFERENCES (SPONGE BOB SQUAREPANTS, ROSIE O'DONNELL, ETC)



NO REFERENCES TO STEROIDS OR ILLEGAL DRUGS



THE FOLLOWING WORDS CANNOT BE INCLUDED IN A TEAM NAME:



Bonds

Yankees

Curse

Gekko





TO ELIMINATE ANY MORE CONFUSION YOUR TEAM NAME CANNOT INCLUDE THE WORDS "ALEX GONZALEZ" OR "LUIS GONZALEZ"



THE FOLLOWING TEAM NAMES ARE CONSIDERED EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE AND COULD RESULT IN SUSPENSION FROM THE LEAGUE AND ALL FUTURE LEAGUES:



PLUGGED IN LAPTOPS



MINOR LEAGUE STARTING PITCHERS ONLY



HILLARY IN '08



YHENCY BRAZOBAN





I think that pretty much covers it.

HILLARY IN '08Disclaimer :



If you're Republican you are permitted to use this name. As we all know, if this is the case then even censoring won't work and Pat Buchannon's sister could win Pennsylvania Avenue

Could I use...

Haywood Jablowme......I shouldn't do this at work - I actually did laugh out loud.
