Fantasy football is all about having fun with your friends. And nothing says fun like a team name that makes everyone laugh (or groan) when they see it on the scoreboard.
If you’re tired of boring team names like “The Champions” or “Football Fanatics,” you’ve come to the right place. We’ve put together over 200 inappropriate fantasy football team names that will get people talking.
Warning: These names are meant for adult leagues only. Make sure your league is okay with edgy humor before using any of these!
