LAnaheim
I'm going to start referring to the city name of the Angels as LAnaheim. Every time I want to refer to the Angels by their place name I end up typing Anaheim, then having to change it. I never know, however, what to type instead. Los Angeles isn't complete. Los Angeles of Anaheim is awkward. I sometimes do LA/Anaheim, but this is a bit shorter and makes fun of the whole naming debacle. So from now on, they're the LAnaheim Angels here.
I like it. Or you can just call them the California Angels. ;)
Be defiant. Just use Anaheim.
LAnaheiM angEls. Adds a bit of commentary to the whole thing.
I like it - but the people who wear "We are not LA) shirts to every game would prefer you just stick to your old habit of calling them Anaheim. I just call them the Angels.
Note to Ameer - the only thing lame about the Angels (today's game notwithstanding) is this whole stupid idea that no one would mind that Arte Moreno decided to try to fudge his geography lessons.
Why would you need to change it? They play in Anaheim, so they're the Anaheim Angels. After all, nobody with any sense calls the New Jersey Jets or Giants the New York Jets or Giants, when they play in the Meadowlands.
