Naming Your Fantasy Team is Important to Success

One of the many things humans do in their lives is give eachother names. We name our children. We give ourselves nicknames as well as our friends.

We even give names (sometimes bad) to our enemies. We name our dogs, our cars and our guns.

Don't shoot your team in the leg with a boring name. What's in a name? Everything.

Do not be foolish to think "any ol' name" will work for your fantasy football team. The name is everything.

Remember going through school and meeting those few people with terrible names? All I could think was "that kid is is going to have it rough". Do not put a similar fate on your fantasy team.

I know I'd be more intimidated to face a team with a good name instead of a team named "football22". Your league-mates will probably share the same sentiment.
