Yes, I know. Weeks ago, some women friends were talking excitedly about the new team, which was not named yet, saying they should be the Amazons. I said they're probably going to be the Valkyries. The interesting thing is not why the team owner made the safer choice. That was obvious. It is what names mean to people, as enduring myths and part of our culture. When I heard a friend who is a serious opera fan and a sports fan say here's why Amazons is a better name, I didn't just dismiss it.
