name the Rivalry contest

 

Name The Rivalry

 

This is a contest put on by the L A Kings and Anaheim Ducks. You can come up with a catchy phrase or pun to represent their rivalry,then enter your suggestion on either of the teams' website.

The prize is tickets to 6 games at either venue. Well I live in Southern Maryland so unless they want to fork out plane fair and hotel costs it's really no use to me.

I couldn't resist entering a few suggestions though. They are;

The Crown Bill Derby

The Royal Quack

The Firm

The New Firm

 

Okay, not great I know, but bare with me. These two teams kicked off the regular season this year with back to back games in London (England) of all places, so I thought the Crown Bill thing had an English connotation. Crown=Queen (or King), Bill-is what they call the police headquarters or the court. Well the Royal Quack kinda speaks for itself, and not very well, but the other suggestion of the  "Firm"" or the "New Firm" is quite clever if you know anything at all about British sport,  namely soccer.

The fierce rivalry between two Scottish (football) teams; Glasgow Celtic and Glasgow Rangers has long been known as "The Old Firm" so how about a new firm in the New World? Cheeky eh? WellI like it. They wont get it and it wont win but I think it's pretty kewel!
