    Could we be this lucky? The saga continues...
    I like to surround myself with people who share in my inappropriate comments, sarcasm, and random shenanigans

    This is correct.

    The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

    Given the remaining names to choose from, I really can't blame them.

    They did it to themselves through arrogance and stupidity. No sympathy from me.

    This.

    Given the opportunity to submit names, variants of the banned moniker encompassed 3/4s of the pages.

    Oh, don't get me wrong, no sympathy from me either. Just pointing out that the final names are garbage. Except for Roughriders. That one may be Ok. Generic, but Ok.

    You are right, though, they did it to themselves. Comical to watch.

    I'll never understand how they couldn't have gone with pilots, aviators, aeros, or flickertails (OK I know that their small man's complex prevented this one) and just called it a day.

    I really wanted Badlanders in honor of their aviation program.

    I mean I know we are dealing with the poster boys for delusion and "cut off your nose to spite your face" but there are such obvious solutions that it is mind bottling and inexcusable that they can't find a viable new nickname.
