7. Perhaps your crystal ball is Canadian?


Just FYI, "Super Bowl" is translated to "Grey Cup" in Canadian. :P

4. Or maybe they could say they're from Indiana and be the Indiana Jones's (sp?)
They they could probably get some big corporate sponsors also.

8. Some of my family in Baltimore still refer to the team as the Bolts.
As in, they bolted from Baltimore in the middle of the freakin' night.

Actually, if you're talking about my family from Baltimore, they'd never say "Baltimore." They would, as anyone from the city knows, say "Bal'more."

14. The Indianapolis "Football Players" with the quoty marks left double sized.
Or, if the Houston Texans move up there, just keep the name "Indianapolis Texans".

See, that would be "ironic".
