Sure, draft good players, that's a priority. But, we're all aware of how a team name can strike fear into the hearts of your opponent, making them stumble lineup decisions, and fall victim to you and your wit. Here's this year's grades.
Note: These grades are not subjective and are final. You may disagree but you are objectively wrong.
Will - O'Bijan Kenobi - B
Creativity - 10/10
Relevancy - 7/10
Comedy - 5/10
Custom Team Image - Yes
Notes: The good names come easy. Also, the good photoshops come easy. I'll happily toot my own tauntaun with this one.
Chu - Treylon Birkenstocks - F
Creativity - 0/10
Relevancy - 0/10
Comedy - 0/10
Custom Team Image - No

Jordan - Javaris Jamarr Javarison Lamar - A
Creativity - 8/10
Relevancy - 10/10
Comedy - 8/10
Custom Team Image - Yes

Josh - Jeu Creu - C
Creativity - 6/10
Relevancy - 7/10
Comedy - 4/10
Custom Team Image - Unchanged from last year
Notes: Wow, Josh making another team name to reference that he's Jewish -- or I guess I should say Jeuish. At the very least change the picture and it's a B.
Joe - The Kuppside Down - D-
Creativity - 2/10
Relevancy - 3/10
Comedy - 0/10
Custom Team Image - Unchanged from last year.
Notes: I'm assuming Joe won't be changing his team since he's got Kupp again. Be better Joe.
Brett - MOORE! - D
Creativity - 2/10
Relevancy - 3/10
Comedy - 1/10
Custom Team Image - Unchanged from last year.
Notes: Stuck with keeping multiple Moores on his team, but the number of exclamation points representing the number of Moores has remain unchanged. Be BretterB.
Mike - Browntown - Z-
Notes: This name has been unchanged since 1997. God awful to begin with. Still unclear what the meaning is, seems to have changed every year.
Boyer - Milfhunter - F
See Chu's entry.
David - A King and Two Kirks - C
Creativity - 3/10
Relevancy - 8/10
Comedy - 2/10
Custom Team Image - Default Yahoo Helmet. Gross.
Notes: At least he thought about it and made somewhat of an effort. I honestly think he doesn't know how to change the image.
Scott - Derekted Energy Weapons - B+
Creativity - 10/10
Relevancy - 8/10
Comedy - 5/10
Custom Team Image - Looks like he customized it himself.
Notes: I'll be honest -- I don't get it, but I like the spirit. I'm totally missing the reference, but I'm here for the effort.
