I wanted to ask, is there anyplace a rookie team could go to find a list of all the existing team nicknames? The program from nationals has all the information for the teams that attended (except that SPAM and SwampThing were left out of the program) Maybe someone with some time this summer could put one together and post a link to it. I would think that if a new team were trying to come up with a team name they'd like to know what is already out there. It's kind of like picking the name for your band - you want it to be unique but with a bazillion garage bands around the country how do you know?
The "other SPAM" question caught us a little off guard when we found out about it at nat's from Krunch. We felt we had lost part of our identity but didn't want to come across as the veteran bully with squatter's rights. I'm guessing the other team had similar feelings when they discovered they weren't the only team SPAM. They have an awesome website
www.spam1190.com
which won the website design award at the colorado regional. We look forward to meeting them sometime.
