Re: Are some HS Team names inappropriate for FRC teams?

How you embody gracious professionalism as a person, and your attitudes towards your worthy opponents, matters a whole lot more than a name or logo.

But to me, professionalism means that striving to be anything other than your best is unacceptable. Names that reinforce this idea are just fine.
