So is the team name "washington redskins" funny or should I call them the "washington greenskins"
Now player names if I call my Orc thrower Tim Tebow is he going to be cursed too roll for every pass all season

Greenskins sounds good, but i would use a warhammer city name instead of DC.

Da' Borderlandz Greenskinz sounds good to me.

My Human team is the Vancouvenheim Cockatrices.

We regularly riot and burn the city down.

I had an undead team called "the Dead Presidents" once. Each player was named after a US president. I had Abe Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt as my mummies, and my ghouls were George W Bush and Barack Obama (technically still living). They always were in competition to see who could score the most points.

P.S. For people who don't know, "dead presidents" is another term for money (since they all have US presidents faces on them). Just realized that might seem distinctly strange to someone who didn't know.

My dwarf team is "The Frosty Mugz" they have a great merchandising deal with all the beer distributors

My lizardman team is the "Kamodo Dragons" but also are called "Monty's Revenge" (montazuma) led by a human coach who was left behind by the empire as a sacrifice, he managed to talk his way out of being roasted in a volcano and teach bloodbowl to a native tribe. They have been so successful against the empire teams, which burn his homelands backsides something awful. They have a hot sauce sponsor too .

The teams name around here:

The Argonorcs (for those in the state. the Argonauts are a team in CFL)

The Reikland Raiders

Orcland Raiders (duh lol) are one of the classic original fluff teams. The Darkside Cowboys are another. Personally, I play the Stonehorns based on the Texas Longhorns, but since supposedly very few teams have their own stadiums/pitches and just drift, I didn't see a need for them to have a hometown.

I made an orc team in honor of my buddy (Doktor_g on here) based on his alma mater the Orkansaw Razorbax.

My Skaven are in black & yellow, I call them the Rattsburgh Squeakers.

My four teams are:

Chaos- Gridiron Gravediggers
Khemri- Forever Jackals
Human- Inglorious Bastards
Skaven- The Rat Packers

I've got a few teams...
Cripple Peak Cutters - Skaven
Bad For Your Elf - Dark Elves
All The Rage - Norse
Middenheim Titans - Human
The Drakwald Strange Attractors - Chaos/Chaos Pact

I called my Skaven Team the Rat Pack, all the players were named after famous rats and mice from TV and stuff, for example, one of my Gutter Runners was Master Splinter, the two Stormvermin were Pinky and the Brain, etc. etc.

That's what I was originally going to do, with names like Frank Sinat-rat, but I couldn't think of enough puns.

My Fumbbl Ork team is "Bad Manors".... and the players' names are all euphemisms for disgusting habits. Toot is currently my start Black Ork Blocker.

I had an undead team called the Deadskins once. I can't recall any player names but they were all taken from the Credits of a Simpsons Halloween special.

My Chaos Dwarf team were called Khuntzinhatz. Not sure if that'll get me into serious trouble, but there you go.
