I’m just a-waitin’ for someone who doesn’t care about basktball, never goes to a game, wakes up one morning and decides they are ‘offended’ by the team name ‘Raptors’.

“It looks SO close to the word “Rapers”.
Can U change the name? Thx in advance!!”

Actually, I paused and rewound my DVR during Game 2 because, in the background, Toronto had a scrawl going around the arena that said "RAPS FOR THE WIN" (or some such thing), and my mind read it as "RAPE FOR THE WIN".

I was relieved that my peripheral vision was tricked, LOL.
