League Name
 
Frenzy is fine, but I agree with Skippy (not common) -- ditch the IDP. Where's the creative juices???

PS. Do not let Doggler (from CDL) name it either :confused: :thumbsdow :rant :bitch :Pukeface :furious :Banghead :wallbang :retard :yuk

We already have the Feeding Frenzy, so I don't think we can go with just Frenzy. How about Passion of the Frenzy? :)

What? You have a problem with bisyllabic adjectives and adverbs? Who'd a thunk it!

Ok ok. Back to the drawing board.

How about one of these:

"Words that start with the letter 'Q'"
"Rhymes with Orange"
"Things that you find under the couch"

Does League of Champions sound to uppity. Of course that would mean that everyone would have had at least one title in their FF career.

League of Chamions reminds me too much of "Justice League" and I don't want to be Zan... (or Jayna)...(or Glick for that purpose)...I better change the subject....

If I ever win CDL, we will have a much better theme than by-sylabic adverbs and adjectives.

Righteous!! How about we use Skip's tagline and he can be our mascot? The Striving For Mediocrity League

The Immortal Ramirez April 14th, 2005 03:15 PM

Re: League Name
 
That's actually pretty good. I thought Skippy was pretty creative with that (but I hate complimenting him).

Hey, Doggs, welcome. Sorry about the jab. How's the little one?

Philadelphia Freedom April 14th, 2005 03:22 PM

Re: League Name
 
BTW, are there any constraints on team names?

The Immortal Ramirez April 14th, 2005 03:27 PM

Re: League Name
 
I would say that we would stick to the theme (if we can determine one)

Plus keeping it PG-13

Philadelphia Freedom April 14th, 2005 03:35 PM

Re: League Name
 
I agree. I would like to go with my hometown, a color and a name (other than this seeming like a combination of Mad Libs and naming blues musicians). For example Glenside Golden Hawks or something like that.

Ha. That would be good. Since most of the league will finish in the middle, it'd really kind of cover most of the crowd.

I'd prefer to keep the Frenzy idea as part of the league name. Don't have any original ideas to speak of at this point, though.

Well the full name for the Frenzy is "Feeding Frenzy" as in sharks going nuts in the water at the first scent of blood.

The Frenzy was founded by a group of us from FootballGuys.com's boards who considered ourselves sharks, thus felt the name fitting.

DOH!! I get what the Freeding Fenzy means...I just don't get the need to carry it over to this group...but like my wife always tells me, I'm easy.....:smoke

Well, this league was born off my post in the Frenzy to add IDP's, and after a couple hours (and 50 or so posts) we came to the realization that a spinoff league may be a better thing. We're basically using the Frenzy rules with a few of the CDL's twists.

Thus that's why the group of Frenzy owners (half this league) has an attachment to the name.

All that being said, I'm totally open to a unique name. Frenzy IDP was just a temporary working name (IMO at least). I would like to keep some tie-in with the Frenzy name somehow though.

Works for me. How about Drinking Frenzy..what you top off a Feeding Frenzy with? And instead of shark, we could use Tuna....

Valencia April 14th, 2005 07:12 PM

Re: League Name
 
OK... here is my idea..
To keep with the whole "Feeding Frenzy" theme (1. the frenzy guys seem to be sensitive about it. 2. It's better than bisyllabic anything).
Somebody in a feeding frenzy could be considered a Glutton, also with all of the other leagues most of us are in we are all "a glutton for punishment" w/(wifes, work, sanity, etc...).
Then... Frenzy can also mean "Mania" Soooo... How about "Gluttonmania".

*crickets* (BTW, thanks insects.. I saw that in your post and thought it was funny)

OK... Let me have a couple more :smoke :IconDrink and maybe I can come up with something better... And I gave up golf this evening to come home and do this. What an Idiot.

Late.

haha someone liked my Feeding FrenzIDP? Haha oh yah. I get credit for the name right?

Mike wouldn't have been clever enough to use the P to spell phootball if it wasnt for me.

Re: League Name
 
We are a sorry bunch for coming up with a league name ... if was to vote on names so far would go with Gluttonmania :bag next choice would be crickets :wow

Preds April 15th, 2005 06:54 AM

Re: League Name
 
I'm still not excited with the name I came up with myself, but how about a combo of that as a tagline, and sticking with the Feeding Frenzy IDP (in superscript) as the main name.

Something like:

Feeding Frenzy IDP
FrenzidPhootball

Philadelphia Freedom April 15th, 2005 08:19 AM

Just call it "crack" since we all seem to be addicted!

Except for the butt crack idea that keeps popping into my head. Oh, well I can live with whatever...

obviously we are all better at managing teams and very low on the creativity.
I would be fine with keeping Frenzy in the name. That's not an issue.

but, I would actually vote for the crickets.

OK... how about something with Sharks (in keeping with the Frenzy theme), that'll have an acronym recognizable as a defensive term...

I'm thinking something along the lines of

Shark Attack Football Tacklers (SAFeTy)

Comin up with an appropriate T word has been giving me headaches.

Dismissed thus far, Teams, Tribe, Troup, Throng

Anyone have a suggestion better than Tacklers? Or is this just a crappy name anyhow?

Input needed... NOW! ;)

Skippy the One Eyed Beagle April 15th, 2005 04:27 PM

just another crappy name...

seriously though tacklers has to go.

The Immortal Ramirez April 15th, 2005 04:37 PM

Re: League Name
 
and where did you get the "e" from?
Too close to "CLOWNS" and we see where that got us!
Nice try on the creative juices. Better than me.

I've been trying to think on shark themes as well. I can't even print the only thing that I came up with...no, really, it's that bad.

Well the "e" and the "y" are implied, you don't need words for them.

But if we found something for the "T" I think it's a pretty cool name and a great acronym for an IDP league.

SAFeTy is a cool name IMO.
