can change it to "annoying bagpipers walking through the Quad when I'm trying to study"
I grew to dislike Robbie Burns Day
?

I didnt mind the bagpipes. Id like to keep the scottish heritage aspect with the new name. My family discussed this at the dinner table last night. My 9 year old daughter suggested the bravehearts and i told her that was a fucking teribble idea (maybe). My son suggested colonizers and i asked if his second choice was the SFU SJW’s (maybe). My wife suggested Mountaineers which of course has nothing to do with Scotland so she was being on brand again :L

mountaineers probably wouldnt fly with the ncaa. :noidea:

/wonder if the name change brings them even more US recruits for the football team :think:

Some of those are just...wow. And I'm not even referring to the joke ones at the bottom.

I'm sure the Globetrotters would love to have Dan Snyder open up the checkbook to purchase the Washington Generals name.
The Kings? That's completely counter-intuitive for the capital of a democracy.
The Jeffersons? Sherman Hemsley would like a word.*
The Arlingtons would be a great name for a team that plays at FedEx Field in <checks notes> Maryland.

“Our Arlingtons nickname is a tribute to the actual Arlington. We have polled a section of Veterans who wholly approve of this tribute and do not find it offensive at all.” - Dan Snyder

Notice that sponsors was the first thing they referenced...

Once FedEx spoke out, that was pretty much the end of the line.

Same thing is happening in the CFL with the Edmonton Eskimos - They were pretty staunch on keeping their name until some of their major sponsors spoke out and now we should expect a new nickname for Edmonton to be announced by the end of this month.

Guys, our sponsors hate our name and logo so much that we're gonna "review it". Now here's a press release with the logo on it and using the word they hate 6 times.

True, Edmonton would’ve found it nearly impossible to operate without Bob’s Jiffy Lube’s $1000/yr contribution.
