Houston ICBM's. That would be a cool name for our team going forward. Houston nukes L.A. back to the stone age in 164-78 victory. Houston ICBM's to make intercontinental trip to China during 2015 NBA preseason Hawks are no match for warheads Spurs vaporized by long range strikes Mavs have no response to Houston's preemptive strike in 1st quarter. D.C. gets hits by barrage of ICBM's and never recovers Many teams complaining about radioactive play of Beverly Plus Howard kinda already looks like an ICBM. He certainly moves laterally like one.
What if I told you the Rockets were named after an intercontinental missile 100x more powerful than the nukes used in World War II? Spoiler The San Diego Rockets http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlas_missile
I don't understand this, a Rocket is a Space Ship b/c of NASA. I don't see what is violent about sending people to the Moon and soon to Mars.
I could actually definitely see this being a professional team name. You could definitely do something cool with the logo's/uniforms/mascots with a team name like that.
My 10 year old son and I were trying to think of a better name for the Texans (since that is one of the stupidest load of crap things to name a sports team imaginable), something to go along better with Rockets and Astros, something cool and space related, and I think he came up with the best option: The Void. Now that is a cool name for a sports team in Space City. Imagine if they had a great defense. Prepare to enter the Void b**tches. And, yes, I do think this is evidence that nerdiness is inheritable.
I think the people say we are Houston LinMings. It a name to give because my two favorite players ever!!! GO LinMings
