I never even once read Little Green Footballs. My first impression was that the name was referring to picking one's nose, rolling the material into ball shapes, and flicking them in random directions. It was an immediate turnoff to me. I refuse to patronize such juvenile names. It's gross. I may be wrong about the meaning, but I doubt it.
No one knows for sure, but I'm thinking of giving you my screenname you tinfoil hat thinking freak! /s /h (there was series humor and sarcasm in that in case you didnt catch it. :oP)
