I now live in Alabama where supposedly one must choose either Auburn or Alabama... so I've started saying "Go Tribe" and "Go Frogs". The combination of confused and concerned looks is amusing.
Team names are either offensive or lame, now that even animals are becoming off-limits. The Ivy League favors colors: Crimson, Big Green, Big Red, which I am sure strikes fear into the hearts of opponents. No people groups can be used, even when that particular people group is all in for the association. The pugnacious leprechaun is deeply beloved in Southie, but no matter.
