Title: TEAM NAMES
Post by: fritorayyy on August 16, 2008, 03:38:31 AM
With the new season starting next week , time to start thinking about a team name. So, lets here some good ones people. Last season, we were "Almost Perfect" with all but the author of this post having a 300. Not sure if we'll use it again though.

We went a few years with whatever the first few words somebody said.  One year someone asked if we had a team name and the reply "yes we do".  The next year we were "not yet".  Then one year someone said you have to have a team name and we were "so".  Last year we were Pumpkin Patch because of Bowlers Slide Socks orange shirts.

Me and my friends always try to have the weirdest teamname and I think we succeed. Our previous names were noturcuzin(where my username originated), Hoo Hoo Hoo(still confused on this one?), SBM (translation-sucker believed me), and the only normal one team 7.

Some team names I've used or seen in leagues with me:

Inituwinit
Fuzzy Angora Sweater Wearing Debutantes (taken from a David Letterman top 10 list about 15 years ago)
Release, Rotation, Splash! (blatant rip off of Sportscenter)
Our Balls are HUGE! (all men's team, obviously)
Perfect 10's
Sad Excuse for a Drinking Team
Frustration Inc.
The Pocket Protectors
Wait ... We're a Bowling Team?!
Got Our Swerve On
Your Worst Nightmare
TOBAMF (Team of Bad A** Mo Fo's)
3 Clowns and a Hand Grenade (4 man team - they were all funny, but a little nuts at times)

I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting. This should be a decent start, though.

We've had several different team names over the past couple years.

ATM After ABS
Balls Deep
Blowin 8's

Although, I was bowling a youth/adult with 2 highschoolers a couple years ago, and their last name was Cox, so we went with In Cox we trust. The only funny part was that we were team nine, so the sheet read  "9.In Cox We Trust"

I bowl in a no-tap league during the summer.  Our lineup consists of these names:
Shannon
Erin
Kenny
Steve

Our team name is the first letters of our names in our bowling order.  So our team name is SEKS.  We are winning the league by a lot.  So, sometimes we all say that SEKS is #1, ha ha.

Our old score monitors and software only has room for 16 characters (including spaces) for a team name so I have been attempting to create a team name within that limitation. 4 person team, one old lady and 3 old men.

Suggestions?

Sounds like a new radio station. The K is what all radio stations in the area must use. The other three letters stand for where we bowl Whiteman Bowling League, and the 202.5 is the team average.

I was asked to join a team for a PBA experience league last year.  Prior to it being a PBA league, it was a sport shot league.  The same team had won the league the last five years.  We were fortunate enough to win it last year.  This year we talked about changing our team name to "Returning Champions".

Our house shot league team name we are considering is "Alert the Press".

Years ago, in a company sponsored league, one of the teams was named:
LAGNAF.
(Let's All Get Naked And F###)

Naturally, someone complained and I as league president, had to explain the name to the director of personnel. (IBM is VERY particular about "stuff" like that!)

I made up some drivel about the F word, (don't even remember what now, it was 20 years ago), but we got away with it.

Couple years later we reformed with younger guys and called ourselves

Cunning Linguists

Added a Native American and ended up with

those are the more memorable ones we've used.
