My Southern college changed from Rebels to Bruins. But even my rabid fundamentalist Christian Prison camp, er, high school didn't object to team names. Of course, back then, no one cared. It was the 70s and all we worried about was walking around in those shoes and that hair.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02190489990653412687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329973.post-65336760252705738922008-05-04T19:42:00.000-04:002008-05-04T19:42:00.000-04:00Er... share please. don't keep the creamed wheat t...Er... share please. don't keep the creamed wheat to yourself.<BR/><BR/>I think the world has gone mad.<BR/><BR/>Oh!

I came over to ask what conflicts you see in the two terms "Tampa Bay Rays" ... and "First Place," since that seems t be what my wacky home team (who is now enjoying the "blessing" of the "Baseball Almighty" by being "born again" minus their prior affiliation. (stupid jerks!) I thought that the original name was lame from the beginning. But only because of its cumbersome bulkiness. Oh Well! <BR/><BR/>Looks like Fenway will have a somewhat interesting game this evening (God how I hate saying "evening" in relationship to Baseball ... the "Daytime" sport.) I detest "progress!" (Yes!! I am old! What of it?!?) <BR/><BR/>I hope that you will enjoy the game. (I am one of the rare remaining of the dying breed known as the "Rabbit Ears" generation of TV watchers.

At the time, I thought the idea of a name change was good, 'cause bullets can't really be spun - bullets are instruments of death. And DC had a really high murder rate back then.<BR/><BR/>But when a primarily African-American team started wearing the name Wizards, all I could think of was what they call the head of the KKK, the <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_wizard" REL="nofollow">Grand Wizard</A> - I mean, HELLO!<BR/><BR/>So I feel ya on the Devil Rays thing. I'm for changing things that represent atrocities in the real world - The Bullets, the mascot for The Cleveland Indians, The Washington Redskins, etc. But the team was named after a fish.

Where I grew up our school was known as the Blue Devils. I even had a devil on one side of my class ring, I didn't turn out to be a satanic follower or love Satan. The town we live in now is called the Red Devils.
