Crusaders is especially tasteless


Depends on who you are. If you're hardcore Catholic, like someone who's shown the Pope his SuperBowl ring, then Crusaders are probably viewed as heroic and you don't really give a damn what the mulims, jews and atheists think.

The league still has to approve it, and they won't approve Crusaders. Way too many negative connotations.

Yeah, well, as a Buddhist (raised Catholic), I would be extremely put off by it. In my opinion, that is along the lines of naming them the Nazis or SS.

Considering that about 70% of NOLA is non-Catholic, I don't see it happening. Like Fun Bunch and I have both mentioned, Stern would not okay it.
