Buffalo Buffaloes I believe is the local University. Not 100% sure.

Being from the extreme NW end of the London Underground, I like London Rippers.
I also like Walthamstow Dogs (as for who else uses dogs...um...do Georgia count? or does it have to be DAWGS! ?)

Lunatics is easily the worst in Zeta, and indeed AA4 as a whole.

In Alpha I like our own Bow Street runners. Belgrade is a trad football team nick, but I think Marseille would be my favourite (we'd be number 2). There are a fair few I don't like...Rejkyavik, Port St. Lucie and IKK Fu are kinda odd, but I think "Sweden Army" is the worst.


Its the UB(University of Buffalo) Bulls.....ahhh, the memories

In my team names defence... I think it's very Western European, kind of German bundisliga, similar, but not as cool sounding as dutch football team "PSV Eindhoven"

It is odd, I'll pay that, but I like it.

See Monk's post above... very egotistical of me I know, but that's me.

See, as an Aussie, I see these euro soccer clubs like the one I mentioned, and others, as weird. And I didn't want to have a team with a stock-standard name, so I went with it.

As for Rabid Mutineers, like I said, absolutely agree that it's odd. That's what I was after, thie game is fun, and I don't take it too seriously, I think the name kind of reflects that, as well as my personality...

Noone, has to like it, it is what it is.

*penny drops*
AHHHHHHH.
OK I see. That's fair enough. And if Rabid Mutineers is meant to be weird, then...well. All well and good. You're a very strange man. (I mean that as a compliment.)

Obviously you do not understand the traditional Celtic view of the Fey.

People lived their lives in fear of the Fey. They paid tribute to the Fey in an attempt to bribe them to bother someone else, or even in an attempt to gain their aid.

You've absorbed far too much modern American perspective on what the Fey are . . ..
