Was wondering why you named your team what you did
I am a big fan of the late Warren Zevon
one of his odd numbers - "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner"
What about you?

Napoleon is by far one of the most interesting historical figures ever. Hitler is too but I believe Buzzerbeater would not let you name a team after Hitler. So Napoleon it was! He also conquered Europe as a midget!!!

I just made up the word moflaffle and then thought Mof State went well with that for a team name, and then I made up the word squiz, so I'm the Mof State Squizzes. Deep huh?

The myth that Napoleon was short was spread by the English, who saw him as a tyrant. He was actually 5'7" which was above average at that time. Regardless, I am fond of your team's name; it rolls off the tongue well.

Edit: Good luck in your next game. ;)

蝴蝶 was one of the first Chinese vocabulary words I learned.
Supreme because I am awesome.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

Syndicalism = a movement that advocates direct action by the working class to abolish the capitalist order, including the state, and to establish in its place a social order based on workers organized in production units. (The contradictions within my team aren't lost on me)

BC = Basketball Club

You really are an inspiring world leader living in the wrong century aren't you? Google translate? (Or just look at my logo...?)

Did you ever notice a bunch of old (Italian) guys drinking espresso and eating canolis - they can get extremely excitable and loud and that just discussing the latest bocce ball game results. :). Hence, my team name!!

I will only bother myself with the greatest language known to mankind: French, of which I know very little of.

BUTTERFLY?! Deadly creatures, aren't they?
