If you don't know the history of the cities, or anything about the United States, you won't understand a lot of the references involved in the names.

Since you're just trying to make fun of the game, I won't go through the trouble of explaining certain names for you - since doing so would do no good anyway.

Interesting that you'd be here wasting your time in a section about a game you think sucks. Nice life you have.

I pity you.

Good thinking. Hey, if the Muzzies ever overtook the US,we could have the Atlanta Ayatollahs, Cleveland Clerics, Boston Beheaders, Rochester Radicals,
Instead of a ball and bat and glove, an outfielder could try to shoot down a fly ball with an AK47. And, Allah help the pitcher who couldn't get the side out.

Still bitter about that whole Revolution loss 225 years ago, eh what?

Just be glad you're not typing in German, you bloody bloke!

I take me Cardinals in a game of Rounders against your finest mates any day.

Give my regards to the Queen and thank her for the great roll in the hay last night!

Sorry we dont just slap "united" or "FC" after the name of the city where our teams play. How exciting would it be to see the New York United play against the Boston United? Not very.

You're right.

We Yanks just can't compete with the tough-guy names of, say, the Premiership.

I mean, who doesn't tremble in their boots at the sound of "Everton Toffees v Fullham Cottagers"?

Ooooh! Candies and people who live in quaint dwellings! I think I just wet myself.....Mommyyyyyyyyyyyy!

sometimes you people can be so mean and nasty! I think our names say something about who we are or where we are from. we "yanks" have a better sense of humor,a better system of government,and better names for things. A boot? for trunk,a bumbershoot for umbrella,a mac for a raincoat,chips for french fries,a sarni for sandwich,I could go on all day, oh ya, pie hole for mouth, oh thats dandy!!!!
