I'm at about 100% with the Global Worm, so I just stick with that

I'm too streaky with the other stuff, 10 fails of a 50 brave crime just ain't worth it

Team names are generally plural...

The Stanford Cardinal, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Syracuse Orange and nearly every team from the WNBA and AFL say hi.

Stanford Cardinals, The Fighting Irish (plural), Syracuse Orangemen (plural).

The Sparks, The Rush, the Dream, The sky.

Every team name I can think of is/can be preceded by "The" and uses a plural verb.

Stanford Cardinal

Syracuse Orange

Cuse changed from the Orangemen to the Orange a couple years ago.

Fighting Irish isn't plural. Irishmen would be.

Rush, Dream, Sky aren't plural either. That would be Rushes, Dreams and Skies. Being preceded by "the" doesn't make it so.

I think usage affects the abstract names - "The Rush play tomorrow" or "The Rush plays tomorrow" *shrug*

Three choices:
1) Pick a farging plural name and like it
2) Giggle at the engrish
3) Write a function that parses an arbitrary string and returns whether or not it is plural.

You chose

I hate making decisions. That's why I joined the military......don't have to pick out clothes to wear to work every day.

I still cringe when I think about the fact that we could have eliminated them ourselves if we had dropped their most powerful members then declared war..oh well
