I’m not a sports fan, so maybe I just don’t get it. But it seems to me having a team named after you is always a compliment. You never hear of a team named the Weasels, the Wimps, or the Jerks. Teams pick names that are positive, honoring a group for their fierceness, honor, or pluck.

Thanks to Frank Zappa I have learned to always watch out where the Huskies go.
It was a hit for Manfred Mann, but it was written by Bob Dylan.
Apparently Manfred Mann has a habit of doing that.
Blinded by the Light was an atrociously awful Springsteen song. (as is pretty much all Springsteen music IMHO) Mann made it a classic hit.
