This week, rather than try to predict someone's roster or
who will get cut, we thought we would do something a little different, and very
fun. There has been a lot of talk about the NFL developing its own minor
league system over the years. This isn't our opinions on the matter. Rather,
this is a list of how we would name each team, and where they would play, if we
got to name them. Some of these are kind puns, but if you are going to do
something, do it right. Sometimes puns are the best option.
