"Politically Correct Football"

The National Football League recently announced
a new era. From now on, no offensive team
names will be permitted. While the owners of
the team rush to change uniforms and such, the
National Football League announced, yesterday,
its name changes and schedules for the 2000
season:

The Washington Native Americans will host the
New York Very Tall People on opening day.

Other key games include the Dallas Western-Style
Laborers hosting the St. Louis Wild Endangered
Species, and the Minnesota Plundering Norsemen
taking on the Green Bay Meat Industry Workers.

In Week 2, there are several key matchups,
highlighted by the showdown between the San
Francisco Precious Metal Enthusiasts and the
New Orleans Pretty Good People.

The Atlanta Birds of Prey will play host to the
Philadelphia Birds of Prey, while the Seattle Birds
of Prey will visit the Phoenix Male Finches.

The Monday night game will pit the Miami Pelagic
Percoid Food Fishes against the Denver Untamed
Beasts of Burden.

The Cincinnati Large Bangladeshi Carnivorous
Mammals will travel to Tampa Bay for a clash
with the West Indies Free Booters later in Week 9.

And the Detroit Large Carnivorous Cats will play
the Chicago Large Mountain Mammals.

Week 9 also features the Indianapolis Young
Male Horses at the New England Zealous Lovers
of Country.
