The NBA’s little know Development League (aka D-League), is moving into Portland.  The team’s owners are clamoring for a name and have opened up voting to the public.  The 7 proposed options are almost as unfortunate as the name of the league:  Maine Beacons, Maine Crushers, Maine Claws, Maine Destroyers, Maine Red Claws, Maine Swarm and Maine Traps.  Maine Traps?  What does that even mean?  And Swarm?  Isn’t that a WNBA team?  How about the Maine Mollusks, or Portland Hipsters?  Personally, I am going with my favorite write-in option: The Portland Sea Donkey’s.  You can vote here:  www.nbamaine.com.

SeaDonkey? You have now maxed out your weekly usage for that phrase.
Or did you not get the memo?
