I haven’t died yet. My house isn’t on fire.

I just right now called them the Yankee Global Enterpirse. Checkmate.

Also, Toronto (Raptors) is not in the US, fyi.

Alas, you are indeed wrong. Because you don’t like the way things happen in the US doesn’t make you right. But we will sleep well at night, living rent-free in your head. You should go watch a soccer match to get your mind off of it.

What a weird thing to be bothered by; Americans are so… shuffles deck…dumb with sports team names. I’ve seen quite a few like this lately, it’s kinda funny.

Anyway, I’ll admit there are some dumb names, especially in semi pro but how can you argue names like Raiders, Patriots, Eagles, 76ers, 49ers, Rangers, Trailblazers, etc. My personal stupid favorites are the Lakers (as in bodies of water) from Los Angeles, they moved from Minneapolis in the 60s and then the Utah Jazz, um Utah…Jazz? Yeah, they moved from New Orleans in the 70s. You’d be hard pressed to find any natural lakes in LA and I’d guess the jazz scene in Utah is underwhelming (never been there myself).

US cities don’t buy teams. Rich fucks do and move them to what they presume to be a more profitable and/or friendly market.

What’s hilarious to me about US sports is the soccer (yes, in the US it’s called soccer, I don’t make the rules) teams trying so hard to act like they’re European teams. Cmon folks, you aren’t an FC, you’re an SC.
