Since Ben asked for opinions...

If people want Ultimate to be taken seriously enough to get sponsorship then
they shouldn't have drug related names. And even if those teams aren't
looking for sponsorship, they are likely to prevent other teams with
reasonable names from getting sponsored.

Getting Ultimate to be taken seriously should be one of our top priorities,
especially as the sport grows and gets more widely known. If it takes BUF
censorship to do that, then fair enough.
