Sports Team's Names

Palestinian BusTours( Basketball) This would be similar to the Lockerbie Sky Riders.  This was part a three on three basketball league that was a yearly event at Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana.  My brother was attending there in the mid seventies.  The name of your team was much more important than your talent.

The Nads(Basketball)  This was the name of a little kid's basketball team in a city league.  They had all these little eight year old girl cheerleaders  running around yelling, Go Nads, Go Nads, it was priceless.

Ding-a-lings(Softball)  Enough said

Swingin-D's(Softball)  This men's slow pitch softball team was mostly drinking beer and falling down.  They had a great name and a great logo.

Chicken on a Chain(Bull Riding)  Mental picture is worth a thousand words.

Mud Hens(Baseball)  Classic

The Zips(Akron)  This is short for Zippers.  I guess Akron was the zipper capitol at one time.  The University of Akron adopted the name.

Purple Flirt (Rowing)  Not really rowing.  It was a log floating off the coast of Pigeon Key, FL.  My cousin Mark and I rode this thing for several days.  It was a classic.

Devil Rays ( Baseball) A great name and then they changed it, Morons. 

Not much else.
