"Goodbye 1836, Hello Dynamo"

[MarcoFromHouston]

That was the headline in today's Sports page. The new name for the Houston MLS team is "Dynamo". Same colors.

It would be hard to be offended by that!

I am offended as Dynaminican! We in the great land of Dynaminico feel that we are belittled by this obvious racial slant!

Seriously though you have to give them credit. Not just anyone could come up with not one but two completely retarded names in a row. Speaking as a Hispanic I was ok with 1836, aside from the fact that it was dumb. Why didn't they just pick a local zip code and call it that? "Taking the field it's YOUR HOUSTON 77084's!!!!!!!!!"

The crowd goes wild.

Prophet out.

But that's the name of Moscow's team.

Still think they should be called the Cinco (Stinko) de Mayos.

So true! How do you get rid of a stupid name, and come up with one that's even worse?!
