Talking OT - from another thread - had to repeat

I mentioned this kind of "in passing" in another thread, but everyone I've told about it thought it was pretty funny, so I thought it deserved to be mentioned in it's own thread. OK, maybe not. But here it is.

One of my games this past Saturday was a girls 7/8 grade game. One of the teams had a play named "Bieber".

Both of my granddaughters, both of whom are 13, thought that was hysterical.

Scottie shouldn't pick on little girls.

Sure, back when most of us played, didn't we all have plays named "Mick", "Stevie Nicks", "Rod", "Dylan", "Dr. Hook", "Looking Glass", "Doobie", etc.?
