MAY THE 4TH BE WITH YOU
Who doesn’t love Star Wars? The popular franchise has created a crazy fan base similar to that of the fantasy football community. Coincidentally, many Star Wars fans are also fantasy football managers, so I took the liberty of trying to come up with the best Star Wars team names I could think of. Some are better than others, but thanks to contributions from many sources, I was able to create a solid list that should prompt a few chuckles.
These team names contain a vast range of content from across the Star Wars universe. The terminology is incorporated in many different ways, such as within the NFL team name itself, as in the cases of the Seattle Ewoks, the Baltimore Reyvans and the Las Vegas Vaders. In other cases, a player’s name comes in handy, as with The MileLe’Veon Falcon or, in a nod to a certain rookie receiver, Jahan Solo.
There are plenty of other veterans who can be thrown into the mix. When you have a guy like Saquon Barkley, how can you not just call him Sa-Quon Ginn? The name rolls off the tongue and has a nickname based on a Jedi knight primed for a comeback season with the Force strong in him.
Then there’s the Wookie of the Year award. QB Kenny Pickett is the betting favorite, but don’t rule out RB Kenneth SkyWalker or WR Jedi Skyy Moore. My favorite long shot is the RB Rachaad White Saber.
My personal preferences are still the Star Wars team names that contain a play on words. Jedi Mind Pick-Six, Attack of the Mac Jones, and Let the FAAB Be With You are all great in my opinion. But the real question is not if these names are significant or not, but what is worse? Attack of the Clones, or Attack of the Mac Jones when you see him in your opponent’s lineup. Not to worry though, if your league has not Let the FAAB through your veins, then a simple Jedi Pick-Six should fool your opponent into thinking the Millennium Falcons have a bye this week. They barely show up anyway.
Sure, it would seem like a rebel move on your part, but remember it’s Star Wars. When you find out your opponent is about as smart as JuJu Binks-Schuster or Marquez Valdes-Pod Race Gambling, you take advantage. When somebody offers you garbage trades for WR Tyler Boyd, you say you want at least four Wookie Draft Picks, The Ashes of Uncle Ben, and Master Linebacker Quay Skywalker, or it’s no deal. If they are not willing to pay up the Parsec, you merely reply, “Brees Aren’t The Tyler Boyds You’re Looking For!”
Without further ado here is your complete list!
