[QUOTE="Bill V, post: 553623, member: 54538"] OK, just doing a quick survey, out of curiosity's sake-- I know a lot of pro sports teams have "derogatory" versions of their team names that their fans call them when they're not performing well--somewhat humorous nicknames that are based on their actual team name. These generally aren't names that other teams' fans call them--they're names that their own fans call them semi-affectionately. Examples are: Cincinnati Bengals > Bungles Kansas City Chiefs > Chefs Green Bay Packers > P@ckers Minnesota Vikings > Viqueens Minnesota Twins > Twinkies Minnesota Timberwolves > Timberpuppies Minnesota Wild > Mild What are some of the other more humorous names that people in your home areas call your hometown teams when they do poorly?
