That's true that name does suck! I'm in NY we have the Knickerbockers, which is stupid considering they are named after a style of shorts but it sound cooler as the Knicks.

I think Knickerbocker came to mean a an old time New Yorker who could trace his roots to the original Dutch.

It also inspired a beer that my uncle used to drink back in the day.

Years ago I worked for James Dolan at Cablevision (a cable company his father Charles Dolan founded, who is the brother of Larry Dolan, owner of the Indians, fun fact) here on Long Island and when he first bought the team he bought all his VP's at Cablevision "Knickers" style pants to celebrate as that was how he interpreted the name, lol

My uncle was inspired to drink any brand of beer. Any time. Any day.
