Granted...they weren't Nazis....they used it before it was a terrible symbol. But imagine some of those people wearing that symbol later fighting/having family fighting that same exact symbol. Wow.
1. If you could change your favorite team's name what would it be? [Keep the city the same]
2. What would be the mst offensive name a hockey team could have?
3. What is the worst hockey team name (any league/level) ever?
4. Favorite hockey team name ever (any league/level)? [Please don't pick your favorite team either]
BQ: Jose Theodore took some time off for "family issues". We all know he's been having a few issues in his family and I'm happy he finally took a game or two off. Do you think he should have taken some time off earlier? After all....hockey is his job. If you were having family issues going on no one would be mad at you for taking time off your job.

Well the swastika symbol meant Peace at one time and that is one original sweater I will not wear,that and the abominable Montreal sweaters from last season(The barber pole).
1.Philadelphia Firebirds and here is the logo-

2.Anything has to do with race is bad, I find it funny that we still have a team named the Redskins..Very degrading to Native Americans.
3.The University of Santa Cruz Banana Slugs.
4.I think the Predators is pretty good.
BQ-I think it will only be for one day,his life took a terrible turn last season and yes I feel he should take as much time as needed...Family always comes first!

I don't really feel like researching it but doesn't the symbol flipped one way mean peace or love? Either way, Hitler ruined many things such as that symbol and his famous mustache.
1) Probably.... The Pittsburgh Kimberly's. I mean, why not?! Or The Pittsburgh Puffins. Since, besides penguins, puffins are my favorite animal.
2) Using the N word would be bad...
3) Ehh, I'm not entirely sure.
4) OH MAN! There IS a team named "The Pittsburgh Puffins"!!!! hahahha that' so awesome. It's a women's league. I may just join for the awesome name..
BQ: Do you know what the family issues are? I've had my head crammed busy at school I don't even know what's going on with the Pens let alone other teams... But yeah, it's always nice to get family issues settled before trying to do your job.. cause you're head won't be in the game if it's busy thinking about other stuff.

1. Buffalo anythings that dont involve the animal buffalo or a crack about snow. I love the Sabres name, in part, because it isn't some dumb Bison joke. Like, I get it, Buffalo is also the name of a large mammal, let's move on.
2. Some redneck city making some racist comment? The Bronx Wife beaters? Welfare recipients?
3. Albany River Rats just grosses me out
4. I like the way New Jersey Devils sounds, I also liked the old school Anaheim Mighty Ducks...yes, cause I have an unhealthy obsession with the movies.
BQ:I think you take time off for personal issues when those issues affect your performance. A lot of times work is the only escape people have until they can get a grip no what to do next...Lord knows my dumb job doesn't give us personal time for ANYTHING.

1. Montreal Rockets (for an obvious reason)
2. Uhh. Maple Leafs, another obvious one.
3. The Macon Whoopees. It's just bad.
4. Waterbury Wolverines - The team Happy Gilmore was trying to make :D
Theodore has been having family problems for years.. . I don't know what it is this time, but it must be serious. Just don't think that when he returns all will be well in his family life. I don't know when it's gonna end. He should take time off whenever he needs to though, because his head is not in the game when he has other things going on.

BQ: Yes, I think the guy needs to spend some time away from the rink, if it is to deal with those prior incidents. However, it may be a new issue...we'll see I guess. I've been pulling for him...it seems like he has had some bad luck for a few years now.
