Big Ten Division names

The Big Ten is considering new names after 90% of people didn't like the Legends and Leaders names they picked. What do you think they should name them? I'm going with Pretentious and Overrated.

OK. There were too many too smart people that had to think too long and too hard for the Legends and Leaders divisions. Those geniuses were very impressed with themselves! Just let the masterminds suffer with Legends and Leaders.

Or go with simplicity like Division 1 and Division 2.
 
Division 1 and Division 2? Absolutely won't work. This is the age of political correctness.
"2" implies a "lesser" division than "1"

Each division name must have the same number of letters.
One name cannot start with a letter further down on the alphabet than another - hence each must start with the same letter.
Care must be taken to not disrespect any aspect of Title IX.
A thorough search of the meaning and etymology of the words for the names must be researched by a team of academics so that one (or both divisions are not offended)
The academics must be well represented by all minorities, ethnic groups, and sexual preferences.
Lawyers must review the final selections to minimize the threat of lawsuits.

Hey! It's not easy anymore to pick names.
 
Sissies & cry-babies?
pink & lavendar?
soft & slow?
small & weak?
little & ugly?
dumb & dumber?
10 & 12?
bad & worse?
six one way & half dozen the other?

we could go on and on, but I think it was already nailed with Pretentious and Overrated.

Division 1 & 2 might be difficult for the Big Ten. They have a hard time counting.

and you can't expect them to read a map either, so instead of east and west how about right and left?

You think they know the difference without using that "left hand makes an L!" thing that everyone learns in kindergarten? Nah, I think they'll go with "These Guys" and "Those Guys," and draw names out of a hat for each division.

I have a few names to call them but I could not clean them up enough to post here.

I have the same feelings about the Big 12 or now known as the Texas Ten. :roll:

You're right. Division 1 and Division A it is. :rofl:
