    "New York Nits"

    first submitted on this forum by "goldenad".

    I actually think there were some better ones but political correctness prevented me from using them:(

    I still like the NY Razors..."On the cutting edge" could be your motto...it makes sense...if the name takes off sometimes they tag a slogan to it...and I can't think of any slogan to tag to nits...so for more marketablity purposes I like razor....The broad public doesn't understand the term "nit" however most people understand the term razor and edge ...those are terms more generally understood by the public...Also many people understand the idea of gambling with an edge ... But maybe this team won't be marketed...

    I am thinking in more of a intellectual property/trademark publicity vein here...

    I still liked mine with the New York Stack Exchange, since sheets used to be a hedge fund trader, and NY is known for wall street and the financial center of the country. Plus they ultimately will be exchanging their stacks for bigger ones at the tables.

    If the also-rans need to explain WHY they liked their names so much...the name obviously isn't very good.

I have to come up with a franchise name, and I am perhaps the least creative person on this planet. The team can represent New York or Long Island, so you can select from either of those cities to use in the name...for example "New York Nits" "Long Island Losers", etc.

    I have until tomorrow morning to come up with something so I will leave it to the p5s and pxf and 2+2 community.

    Whoever comes up with the best name wins as judged by me and the forum feedback wins....ummm....hmmmm...lemme see....

    $100?...yes that sounds good... ...one.....HUNDREDDDDDDDDDDD....DOLLARS (online obv)

    Ermmmm, forgive me if I have this wrong but I think it was first submitted on this forum by some guy called "sheets". I think this guy should get the money rather than the person that just copied it from him. no?
