Need help plugging holes in themed team-names

Post by mattgslater »

Undead team: the Sandy Ancient Rechargers (Egyptian theme, Undead roster)
All Chargers puns. Need a skeleton and a zombie, and always looking for better ideas. Season starts tomorrow!

Head Coach: Scare Cor-Yell
Assistants: Grave Turner, Bobby Rott

Ghouls (14 = 4, 21 = 1, 19 = 9, 35 = 5)
Fan Doubts (Dan Fouts)
LayDowninyer Tomblinson (duh)
Lanced Not-Worth (Lance Alworth)
Carrion Gutts (Marion Butts)

Wights (80, 71 = 10, 11)
Kill and Win Slowly (Kellen Winslow)
Dead Freen (Fred Dean)

Mummies (74, 76 = 14, 16)
Need Jamal Williams pun
Raunchy Mix (Ron Mix)

Skeletons (37 = 7)
Rot-Knee Harrassin' (Rodney Harrison; any doubts as to first skill?)
Need another pun for a player whose number ends in 2, 3 or 8.

Zombies (20 = 2, 46 = 6, 55 = 15)
By Means of Natron* (Natrone Means)
Chuck "the Dead Cart" Munchie (Chuck "the Truck" Muncie)
Say Ow, Junior! (Junior Seau)
Need another pun for a player whose number ends in 2, 3 or 8

*That's how the Egyptians preserved their mummies, with Natron salt.

Thanks for "Jam All Y'all Limbs": luvvit! :D

I really wish I could have Foul-up Shivers or something, but it's either him or Rot-Knee Harrassin', as there's only one roster number that ends with 7 in BB. I really like Freakin' Bones! His number is 75, which could replace either Seau or Butts. That's a hard call, no? I like "Freakin' Bones" more than "Say Ow, Junior" so I think I'll use it. This means I don't have to think about #85 (I was pondering "Helltonio Gates" but I don't like it, and I do like Freakin' Bones).

Ooh... Skel #23 can be a Quentin Jammer pun, or #93 could be a Luis Castillo pun, or 32 (Eric Weddle) or 52 (Larry English). Still not sure exactly what to do there. Or I could have #43, and use a Deadling and a Sproles pun. And Zombie #68: Krush Deadman (Kris Dielman)!

Slightly off topic but my chaos team all have very boring or old English names. So there is a Cecil, Gavin the minotaur and other such things. I had a guy killed and was replacing him with another after the game. The teeth sucking mate was celebrating his win and I said

" I am a bit annoyed to be brutally frank"

New Beastman, Brutally Frank was born that instant.

1 (21): Laydowninyer Tomblinson (Ghoul)
2 (20): By Means of Natron (Zombie)
3 (3): John Carnage (Zombie)
4 (14): Fan Doubts (Ghoul)
5 (35): Carrion Gutts (Ghoul)
6 (46): Chunk Munchie (Zombie)
7 (37): Rot-Knee Harrassin' (Skeleton)
8 (68): Krush Deadman (Zombie)
9 (19): Lance Unearth (Ghoul)
10 (80): Kill and Win Slowly (Wight)
11 (71): Dead Freen (Wight)
12 (32): Eric Deadle (Zombie)
13 (43): Scarin' Souls (Skeleton, Deadling model)
14 (74): Rot Mix (Mummy)
15 (75): Freakin' Bones (Skeleton)
16 (76): Jam All Yerlimbs (Mummy)

Thanks, guys!

So Eric Deadle and Scarin' Souls won't be on the maximized roster. That means, it's just two current Chargers (three if you count Jamal, but sadly he's done, I'm afraid: I'd say "stick a fork in him" but he's still the strongest man in the NFL, so that would be a very bad idea). Hmm... Maybe Lance Unearth should be Kevin Burnedhead (99, Zombie), and Chunk Munchie or By Means of Natron could be a Ghoul, or perhaps I ... I don't know, all the guys who don't have great puns are too good not to include.
