Dumbest pro sports team names

[DooDooBird]

WNBA aside, what are some of the dumbest team names in pro sports?

Oklahoma City Thunder - horrible. lame. gay. all at the same time.

LA Clippers - wtf is a clipper? i think of a grooming utensil.

LA Lakers - yeah, the city is known for its lakes. too lazy to change its name after the move.

Utah Jazz - another example of a lazy franchise.

San Diego Padres - the Fathers?

Houston Texans - very creative... its like naming your team the New York New Yorkers.

Minnesota Wild - as if hockey wasn't unpopular enough... about 95% of the teams all have stupid names.

Anaheim (Mighty) Ducks - even the players are embarrassed about this one

[xbrokendownx]

Buffalo Bills - what the hell is a bill? and why is the logo a buffalo?

[Spicoli hey bud]

This is just one of those things where each team has become second nature in my mind, and none of them really seem that silly.

[kshtoinks12]

Shouldn't be talking about pro sports, lets think of stupid college team names.

[Dirty Ernie]

[Anton Djamoos]

Clippers are ships, by the way.

Phillies, Mets, and Reds are stupid baseball team names.

[CloseToShore]

Islanders, Reds, Mets, Packers, Nets, Pacers, Jazz, and Thunder.

[wrppdarndyrfngr]

All the Kansas City teams’ names are based on positions in a government/monarchy/royalty

Chiefs

Monarchs (Negro league)

Scouts (hockey)
Kings (basketball)

[pennie]

[DaveFeelsRight]

White Sox.

"I'll have you know whataclush that the duck is one of the most noble agile creatures in the animal kingdom. Have you guys ever seen a flock of ducks flying in perfect formation? It's beautiful. It's pretty awesome the way they all stick together. ducks never say die. Ever see a duck fight? No way. You know why? Because the other animals are afraid. They know thatr if they mess with one duck they gotta deal with the whole flock. I'm proud to be a duck, and I'd be proud to fly with anyone of you. So how bout it who's a Duck?"

[Losing Streak]

"Minnesota Wild" is one of the worst names in pro-sports. Most singular names are.

The L.A. Clippers were once in San Diego. A Clipper is a type of fast moving ship. It's a coastal city. Makes more sense than the Lakers at least.

Disney sold the Anaheim Mighty Ducks and now they're just the Anaheim Ducks. That's not so stupid when you consider that several NFL and MLB teams are named after weaker birds.

The NBA needs to force teams to change names when they move...several teams' names: the Memphis Grizzlies, Utah Jazz, L.A. Lakers (too late for that one) for example have nothing at all to do with their region. They also need to ban college sounding names. Charlotte Bobcats...wtf?

[WakingTheMisery]

California Golden Seals

[starkandarcadia]

Nashville Predators.

Way to pick a team name that describes a bunch of other pro sports teams (Tigers, Bears, Jaguars, Lions, etc. etc. etc.)

[Mister Mak]

Virginia Tech Hokies - stupid mascot, ugly colors, awful school

Oklahoma City Thunder is pretty terrible... Figured they would come up with something ALOT better then that. Poor Seattle :(.

WNBA aside, what are some of the dumbest team names in pro sports?
New Jersey Nets - Generic as hell. How about the New Jersey Basketballs?
Phoenix Suns - there's only one Sun.
Philadelphia (Radio) Flyers
Montreal Canadiens, Vancouver Canucks - C'mon, Canadiens. Get a little more creative with your team names.
Dallas Stars - This is a little nitpicky, but - sounds pretty generic. I do get it, though - The Lone Star state.
Ottawa Senators - How about the Ottawa Congressman instead? Kind of dumb.
Real Salt Lake - WTF? I guess it is soccer.
Sounders - They make sounds? They sound things out?
Red Bulls - Not a bad team name per se, but corporate sponsorship at some of its worst.


Oklahoma City Thunder - horrible. lame. gay. all at the same time.

LA Clippers - wtf is a clipper? i think of a grooming utensil.

LA Lakers - yeah, the city is known for its lakes. too lazy to change its name after the move.

Utah Jazz - another example of a lazy franchise.
No problem with Thunder. Lakers are fine, since they're such a historic franchise. Clippers isn't anything exciting, but it's acceptable. Jazz is kind of lame, but if a city is known for its music, it makes sense. Same thing with the St. Louis Blues.

San Diego Padres - the Fathers?

Houston Texans - very creative... its like naming your team the New York New Yorkers.
Agreed on both.

Minnesota Wild - as if hockey wasn't unpopular enough... about 95% of the teams all have stupid names.

Anaheim (Mighty) Ducks - even the players are embarrassed about this one
Didn't even realize the Wild were a pro team.

At least it's based on a classic movie(s).

Alot of football teams from america tend to have ridiculous names.Kansas city wizards for example.
Never heard of this football team, ever.

[Rock]

the pittsburgh penguins. sure theres alliteration, but when was the last time you saw a penquin in pa? just cuz it snows all the time doesnt mean theres penguins
No penguins in PA, but hockey is played on ice...

I never liked or understood Fremantle Dockers :shrug:
A team that docks their boats. What's the big deal? ;-)

[bailmeout13]

Sounders - They make sounds? They sound things out?

Named after the Puget Sound, where Seattle is located. It's also kind of a historic name for Seattle in the sport of soccer.

[pennie]

Never heard of this football team, ever.

i agree with you about the nets and red bulls. those are kinda lame names (really shitty in the case of the red bulls). there's already a team called "sun", i think in the wnba, but they're sponsored by mohegan sun, right? montreal and vancouver are both named for historical reasons, same as the new york yankees. how is ottawa senators any worse than say, washington nationals or washington capitals?

[Rock]

Still not giving it to them.

I'm all kinds of confused.

No idea about the Mohegan Sun. Don't care about the WNBA. Historical reasons, as in people from Canada have historically been called Canadians and Canucks? Not good enough. That would be like naming a team the "Americans" (which has been done - see WFL). Apparently the Senators were around back in 1883, so I'm giving them a free pass. And I guess the history with Rome is kind of cool. Nationals, although not particularly thoughtful, isn't comparable, I don't think. It's not a good name either, though. Capitals isn't terrific, but it is the capital of the United States, after all. So it's appropriate.

[pennie]

I'm all kinds of confused.

haha http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kansas_City_Wizards this is them though if you actually didn't know.

[shit stroll]

Colorado Rockies

For a college team it's got to be the Crimson Tide

[williek311]

Jazz is kind of lame, but if a city is known for its music, it makes sense.
The team was formed in New Orleans where Jazz has roots and then it was moved to Utah.

[Zeran]

Historical reasons, as in people from Canada have historically been called Canadians and Canucks? Not good enough. That would be like naming a team the "Americans" (which has been done - see WFL).
well, in case you really want to know...
the canadiens (spelled the french way) were historically the first people anywhere to be called "canadian", as in the people living in new france. the team always used to be made up of french-canadians, so it's more about history and pride than being boring.

as for the canucks, it kinda goes with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Canuck but also just with the fact that canuck is a nickname for canadians. i don't see how it's much different from naming a team the yankees or whatever.

[Scott Weber]

This is the stupidest thread on the page, and some of the people questioning the names on here without understanding their historical significance is killing me.

Christ, you're a moron. Canadiens, Canucks and Senators are all historic team names. There's absolutely nothing wrong with them.

And are you fucking serious with that Sounders comment? It's named after the Puget Sound. It was also the name of Seattle's team in the NASL.

[xbrokendownx]

lol @ "they make sounds"

[Scott Weber]

X-)

Honestly. Rock...crawl back under whatever rock you were hiding until you desperately try to get people to join your football league again.

Sounders and Lakers have pretty much the exact same historical significance and origin to each original city, but Lakers are ok because you understand it, apparently.

That's fair. It's not any different.

Scott - If you're going to be a total douchebag, please save yourself the time of reading my posts (you could just ignore them - it's real easy). I know you've always had some sort of rift with me because I don't carry the "clout" that you do and have to try a little harder to get people to join my fantasy league. Get over it. And please forgive me for not going back and researching the historical significance of every single team name in every major professional sports league. Apparently that is expected (by you) as a prerequisite for posting in this thread.

Only difference being that the Lakers have been around since 1946 and Sounders was first used in 1974. Little time difference there.

[Rock]

Many apologies Chris M., for not knowing my Canadian sports history a little better and thinking that Canadiens and Canucks simply referred to people from the country. What a horrible error on my part, one certainly deserving of my being called a "moron." My only regret is that someone of your obvious brilliance had to waste his valuable time correcting my error.

I am, in fact, serious. I'm aware. I looked it up. I think it's dumb. End of story. Way not to be a prick.

You deserve the comments you receive. It's no vendetta - I pretty much act the same to everyone who says really stupid or ignorant things.

Sounds? They make sounds? Christ.

Both names have been around for over 30 years. The Sounders were one of Seattle's first pro sports teams - they came before the Mariners and Seahawks. Puget Sound...

I don't mind being criticized. I just don't appreciate being singled out like I made an atrocious error or a sacrilegious statement and then subsequently belittled.

It was obviously a joke. Don't be stupid.

That is true. If you want to look at it that way, that's fine. Everything is relative, of course.

its a well known fact that smoking hot women date huge douchebags... and Jeter's been romantically linked to some hot women. so, there you have it.

plus, i hate his defensive move where he back hands a ground ball between third and short and then sprints an extra 15 feet toward LF before he releases it to 1B. it just gets on my nerves.

field the ball, plant your foot, and throw it for christ sakes. stop being a show boat.

finally. the most overated play in history... the one against the A's in the playoffs where he flips the ball home to get Jeremy Giambi called out. the ump fucked that one up... i swear he was safe.

that's it.

LA Clippers - wtf is a clipper? i think of a grooming utensil.

San Diego Padres - the Fathers?


The Clippers used to be based in Buffalo, and were called the Braves. They moved to San Diego and were renamed the Clippers because of all the boating and sailing done on the coast. They moved to LA a few years later and just kept the name.

And I'm pretty sure the Padres are named the Padres because of all the Spanish missions in California, the first being established in San Diego and the missionaries were known as padres.
