JamesCraven Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Chris Berman calls the NFC Central, er, NFC North (I'm still not calling that division the North) The NFC Norris Division, so what should we call the NFC West Division? I'm going for the NFC Adams Division as a good name for it because nobody wants to win it or have entry into the playoffs with a sub-.500 mark.Post away!

How about you try just a little bit harder to make a suggestion that's explaination is so long that no one understands/cares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyRock Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 A sentence is too long? I don't think it's that hard to understand, really. The Jets' nickname is Gang Green, and that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I could just be an ignorant NY an... the radio stations here call them Gang Green(and call the Giants, Big Blue), but that doesn't mean anywhere else calls them that... my bad.

He pronounces it "Norse", but it's spelled "Norris" in the closed captioning. that doesnt meen its right, why Norris anyways? Norris was one of the NHL divisions before they decided to rename them geograpically in 1993. The Norris division not only had similar teams to those in the NFL North (Minnesota NorthStars, Chicago Black Hawks and Detroit Red Wings along with Toronto and St. Louis) but was usually the worst division in the league. When it was actually an active division, Berman and other ESPN-ers referred to it as "the always humorous Norris Division" because there were times when the Division winner had close to a .500 record (and maybe even a sub-.500 record, I don't remember). Before the NHL changed to geographic conference and division names, the conferences and divisions were named after people. There was the (Clarence) Campbell Conference and the (Prince of) Wales Conference. The divisions were the (Lester) Patrick, (Jack) Adams, (James) Norris and (Conn) Smythe. The Wales Conference would be what today is the Eastern Conference and contained the Adams and Patrick Divisions. The Campbell Conference would be today's Western Conference and contained the Norris and Smythe Divisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
