Stupid name

So, my Yankees will play against the Philadelphia Phillies in the World Series starting on Wednesday.

I don’t want to sound mean-spirited, but what kind of stupid name is the Phillies?

The franchise’s original name was the Philadelphia Philadelphias, which is quite ridiculous and even worse when said aloud, but is the Phillies any better?

Imagine if other major league teams took Philadelphia’s lead and started naming their team similarly.

The New York Yorkies.

The Boston Bosties.

The San Diego San Diegoies.

The Yankees should crush the Phillies just based on name alone.

Let’s hope…
