Briefly, it's a little short-sighted to think that team names stand in the
way of Ultimate sponsorship.  IMHO it's more likely to be something to do
with the actice player base of 2000 (and that's only the "official" figure)
the state of public ignorance, media dissinterest (or at best, ambivalnce).
Marketable Ultimate is a long way off and yes, making a token sacrifice of
individual teams names is draconian.  Where do you stop?  Anybody dislike
Red's communist allusions?  And besides, if you want to address "drugs" in
sport, teams names are the least of your worries.  Open up that particular
can of worms at your perril.
