If Mr. Stanley wants to change the name, then he should BUY the team. Otherwise STFU. Of course Mr. Stanley would probably the first to defend a name like Savages or Redskins, even tho in some ways these names are worse "the Devils".

Personally, I like the NJ Mafia as a name, but the French and Italians would protest. (Mafia is the acronym of "Morte Alla Francia Italia Anelia", en Inglese "Death To the French Is Italy's Cry".)
