Should Arsenal football club change their name because it can be pronounced as 'Arse and all' and the innumerable connotations that has? If a team has a name it is for a reason - usually because it reflects the players or they find it amusing - and if people want to take things the wrong way then that reflects their mentality. This should not govern what teams can call themselves. I don't think that 12 year old kids will suddenly shoot their grans in order to steal cash and score some 'horse' because a group of guys who throw a piece of plastic around decide to call themselves headrush, UTI, or substance abuse. Oh, and 'flying sorcerers' has not connection with cocaine, acid, glue, petrol, aerosal deoderants, or toilet duck. yours pedantically Jon Good aka 'Big Funky' of 'Funkian' and 'More than just a Hint' aka 'Frank LeBoeuf' of 'Blue Arse Flies' D.O.P.A.
