I’m cheating a bit. It’s just after 12:30 AM, but it’s the same waking day, I’ll count it.

I did a fantasy football draft tonight. I haven’t done it in years and had retired, but some friends needed a twelfth and the buy in is only $20 so why not. Despite barely watching football anymore, my knowledge isn’t all gone, plus I pick up a lot of passive news with all the time I spend on Twitter.

I’m pretty happy with my team, especially the name, “Ka’imi hameha”. To me, naming your team is one of the most important parts of the season. Anyone who doesn’t name their team a pun of one of their players or at least something to do with pop culture, etc… should reexamine averything they stand for….. Well, maybe that’s a bit harsh. But, instead of talking about the specifics of my team, I’m going to talk about why I love the name I came up with.

First off, Ka’imi’s full name is John Christian Ka'iminoeauloameka'ikeokekumupa'a "Ka'imi" Fairbairn. Ka’imi is a good nickname since the ode to his Hawaiian culture is quite the mouthful. So maybe, at first, that’s why you think I named my team. A homage to the great King Kamehameha and link to his heritage. Yes that’s true, but only partly, I noticed that second. The real reason is because it is the classic move of Goku from the Dragon Ball series; it was one of my favorites growing up.

So in an act of respect to kickers everywhere, this will belong in my top list of fantasy names, alongside the best of my EPL league. Hope you get the references.

1. Giroud Dreams of Sushi

2. Too inappropriate to share — but it’s a innuendous* pun for Romelu Lukaku

3. Hopped In Her Ass Like a Kangiroud

4. Gündoğan Wing (This Year’s)

5. Llalana Del Rey

*I mean full of innuendo here. I’m not convinced this is a real word.
