NFL becomes NHL, so we need a new name for hockey.

Hockey sticks moving the puck resemble brooms sweeping, so we could call it "Brooms," which leaves us with either NBA or MLB, so we need a new name for Basketball and/or Baseball.

Baseball could be called stickball, taking MLS so 'soccer' would need a new... Hey, that actually works out.

[–] ramble81@lemmy.zip 4 points 19 hours ago

No, no. MLS becomes the NFL so there’s no confusion that it’s football.

And apologize the whole time they are doing it.

NHL will have to rename to National Blade Association (NBA), so we have to come up with something new for Basketball.

[–] MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.io 6 points 23 hours ago

Basketball was invented using peach baskets. So the NBA will have to become the National Fruitball League (NFL)

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Basketballs are round, so maybe just National Roundball Association, or NRA.

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 3 points 3 hours ago

I have unironically called basketball roundball for over 3 decades.

Sports are practically a religion in this country and I hate religion.

turn the NFL to NHEL, case closed.
