Actually the new owner liked the "Charge!" bugle call and chant that they were using at Dodgers and Trojans games so he named his team Chargers.
I'm sure you're kidding because politicians serve themselves not the public - sorry I'm just jaded.Public servants fits better, but Public Officials is generically funnier.

I like seeing the assessment and appreciate effort of compiling it. I agree with a lot, disagree on some, without developing my own list.
(Maybe I will, if time permits )
For the "makes no sense/out of place" category:
* Cardinals were in St. Louis (prior to that Chicago) so it's regionally fitting. Probably should have done a name-change with the move to Arizona. (Similar thing when Rams relocated to St. Louis).
* Jaguars came from a nickname contest -- Jaguars aren't native to Florida, but the oldest living jag in the U.S. was at Jacksonville Zoo at the time. It's a "generic" animal nickname, but ... jaguars hunt crocodiles for lunch, for goodness sake.
I was making the point that that's what they're suppose to be, where in reality they are anything but...Public servants fits better, but Public Officials is generically funnier.
