"But it seems to and NFL so they don't care about security, obviously," he said.

Once again, someone was nice enough to snap a few shots of hipsters in action in Nieuw Northe Breukelen and send them in to me.

NFL Football Teams in Latin


You’ve heard of NFL “throwback” uniforms which hearken back to the original vesture of older teams. Even Pepsi has a “throwback” campaign – using an older-looking logo and going back to “real sugar.”

So here’s the ultimate throwback – the NFL team names in Latin. That’s right folks, Cicero knew the NFL teams by these Latin names – okay, not really, but if football had been played in the Colosseum, the following names would be the NFL (ahem…Foedus Nationale Pedipila) teams.

I’d appreciate any advice from my fellow Latinists. Last week I asked my Latin students to come up with Latin names for the NFL teams. Here’s what we came up with. I’m sure that we’ve overlooked something.

Pittsburgh Ferrarii (Ferrarii sounds much more blue blood than “steel-worker” doesn’t it?)
Washington Rubracutes (Saying it in Latin makes it sound more politically correct, doesn’t it?)
Green Bay Arctatores
Chicago Ursi
New York Gigantes
Indianapolis Equulei
San Francisco Undequinquagintatori (This is my personal favorite NFL Latin name – literally “one from 50ers”)
Dallas Bovipueri (My favorite team! – also a great Latin name)
Cleveland Bruni (Even in Latin, it’s still the most boring name in football history)
Detroit Leones
Oakland Raptores
New England Patriotici
Philadelphia Aquilae
St. Louis Arietes
Kansas City Principes
Miami Delphini
Arizona Cardinales
Denver Sonipedes
Tennessee Titani
Buffalo Gulieli (plural abbreviation of the Latin name “William”)
Minnesota Vikentes (yeah, we just punted on this one…)
New York Aeroplana (this term turns out to be neuter plural of airplane in “contemporary Latin”)
Baltimore Corvi
Tampa Bay Archipiratae (it rhymes!)
San Diego Fulgurifactores (I’m not satisfied with this as “Chargers,” but I wanted to keep the “electric” meaning)
Houston Texani (we punted on this one, too)
Cincinnati Bengalenses (I’m quite proud of this one)
Jacksonville Pantherae (yes, the scientific name for a jaguar is “panthera onca”)
Carolina Pantherae (unfortunately redundant with Jacksonville above)
New Orleans Sancti
Seattle Pandiones
Atlanta Falcones
I’m especially grateful to my students Dominic Sipe, Jacob Pearson, Max Biko, Daniel “Harundo” Reed, and Joseph Davis for their creative help in generating this list.

Gylfi Sigurdsson: The £10 Million Man?


 116273209_display_image

Icelandic midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson has impressed for Swansea since joining on loan from Hoffenheim in January.
Sigurdsson, 22, has said he'd like to stay with the Swans after this season. However, Hoffenheim still own his rights.
The German club reportedly want £10 million for his services.
From the Daily Mirror:
Kop chief Kenny ­Dalglish, Everton coach Jimmy Lumsden and United spy Martin Ferguson all watched Sigurdsson dazzle against Bolton on Saturday. Swansea would love to extend the former Reading player’s loan for another year, but Hoffenheim­ know they can cash in – with Newcastle also admirers – and will sell to the highest bidder.
The loan deal has been controversial­ with the German side’s supporters.
They still sing Sigurdsson’s name every week and only a major fee for the 22-year-old will take the heat out of the ­decision.
I'm with the Hoffenheim fans. Why don't they just bring Sigurdsson back?

Meanwhile, Jose Mourinho will reportedly return to Chelsea for an even bigger fee.
