Fantasy football is no longer "just a game" but has evolved into what can only be classified as a social event where friends, family, and coworkers strike to test their wits in competitive games. Although how you strategize your draft picks, make trades, and manage your roster are very important, there is one that we see most overlook but can add a lot of fun to the experience: the team name.

A funny fantasy football team name is used for more than just gaining a chuckle. It shows your creativity, demonstrates your sense of humor, and can also intimidate the other team. Even more, it contributes to the lightheartedness and almost whimsical intrigue of playing a game, adding another layer of fun for those involved in Fantasy Sports.

But as close to the 2024 fantasy football season approaches, that search for the perfect team name has begun heating up. Well, we will take the top 10 funniest fantasy football team names expected to kill it in leagues for the next four years and explain why they were cut.

1. "Hurts So Good"

This astute wordplay merges a Philadelphia Eagles signal-caller into a John Mellencamp favorite. Buy in if you're an Eagles fan or own Hurts in your fantasy football league because while he may be causing other teams a lot of hurt this season, it feels so good for his owners.

2. "Bijan Mustard"

This name is a tasty pun on Dijon mustard that plays off of Bijan Robinson, a rising star in the running back position. Those fortunate enough to select the talented rookie shouldering a heavier-than-usual workload just yet are in for some spice if that prediction comes true.

3. "Olave Garden"

Blindly marrying the last name of New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave to the nationwide Italian restaurant chain Olive Garden. This is for fans of food puns who think Olave will feast.

4. "Run CMC"

Doubling as an homage to Christian McCaffrey and hip-hop legends Run-DMC, this name is for the fantasy manager looking to blend beats with rushing feats.

5. "Sherlock Mahomes"

This clever mashup between Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the famed detective Sherlock Holmes conveys that your Mahomes-led squad is going to be the one answer in that fantasy league.

6. "The Pollard Express"

The Pollard Express is ideal for those who are bullish on Dallas Cowboys RB Tony Pollard. It signals that your Pollard-powered team is going to ride a train very fast and be due for victory.

7. "Better Call Hall"

A play on "Better Call Saul" and the name of New York Jets RB Breece Hall. Great option for those who think Hall will be their fantasy-prize legal weapon.

8. "To Infinity and Bijan"

Play on the notorious "Toy Story" line; this is another gem with freshman standout Bijan Robinson. That implies your fantasy points could go to infinity and beyond!

9. The Torture Pitts

This is a clever combination of "The Torture Pits" and Atlanta's rookie tight end, Kyle Pitts. It is a darkly comic selection for those disappointed by Pitts' performance in past years yet hoping he has a coming-out party.

10. "Finding Deebo"

While "Fish Samuel" is a creative play on the Pixar film "Finding Nemo," it includes San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel. an ideal landing spot for those who think Samuel is going to unlock fantasy success
