Looking for Lego-themed Fantasy Football Names

Post by AK_Brickster »

I'm getting ready to start Fantasy Football for the season, and was hoping someone could suggest a clever Lego-themed team name.

The only thing I've thought of so far is "Illegal Chop Blocks" - this could be illustrated by a criminal minifig swinging an axe down on a Lego block, lol.

Any other ideas?

Not many around like football...I think we can count the number in the single digits. I do, and I do like your illegal chop block. You could play with the facemask and use a castle term instead. Or mess around with the terms like "steel curtain" or "orange crush"...Instead of grid iron, you could portcullis. But if you are like me, and prefer good college football, you could use lego colors instead of your team colors. Just some suggestions. I'll try and think more. Although, I do have to say the last Fantasy Football I was in, we had a guy named "Winner Winner Chicken Dinner" completely irrelevant...and the guy won.

I'm a fan; a Broncos fan born and raised in Dallas. :eyebrows: I blame exposure to John Denver in my formative years. :tasty:
Anyway, all I can think of that's LEGO related isn't any better or much different than what you already have; block in the back and whatnot.

Hmmm. I like the idea of a play on "block" but that name "illegal chop blocks" seems a little long. What about "block heads" or just plain "chop blocks"?

Diehard Broncos fan here as well...Wow this has me stumped...Blocking the Kick(for a field goal) is about it.

I used "All Time Broncos" the first time I played Fantasy Baseball, and to the chagrin of my fellow coworkers at the time I won and was subsequently banned from using that name again... :roflol:

"Roughing the Builder" (roughing the passer)
"Monday Night Brickoff" (instead of kick off)
"Play well!"
"C'mon AFOL!" (Instead of c'mon Man!)
"He Could. Go. All. The. Bley!"
"Studs Out" (play on Ace Ventura's lace's out)
"Brick Interference"
"TECHNICal Difficulties"
"We 1x3 " (get it? Won by three? :roll: )
"More Studs than You"
"What a Plate!" (Instead of play? :snore: )
"The Brick is up" ( the kick is up)
"Through the LUGright!" (Through the upright)


Yeah, I know these are really bad :lol:

Haha Sschmidt! I like Studs Out simply because of the picture it puts in my head.

Those were awesome, Sschmidt!

Why not just shorten it to Illegal Blocks?

No idea on a logo though. I picture a shipment of Shifty getting destroyed by court-order, but I do not know how that could be represented in a simple logo. Heck, just use a falcon shield for your logo. People will get the connection or they won't.

Really? Well, I guess if you are talking about pointy-ball. :wink:

As a fan of Football played with the feet I would suggest something like Blockhead United, Brickchester City or for an even more Euro-flair perhaps something like Young Bricks, Dynamo Brick or maybe "AC Brickster" :D
