    Mention the words "London" and "Ripper" in the same sentence and most of us will naturally think of the serial killer who butchered English prostitutes in the late 1880s. But after drawing criticism for naming their squad the "London Rippers," officials say that the infamous Jack the Ripper is not the inspiration behind the nickname for their minor-league team based in the Canadian city in southwest Ontario.

    Lol. He's clearly the inspiration. The guy looks just like the Jack the Ripper stigma. Who cares though? When the Germany Fuhrers play them I'll show some interest.

    Agreed. I'd be scared if I was a hooker though.

    I like the logo although I think the maple leaf as the dotted i is a bit gay.
