SLPL Renames Amarilla Division
04/04/2002
SANTA
LECHUGA (SLPL News) - In
an unexpected and stunning move, the Santa Lechuga Power League
has decided to rename the "La División
Amarilla" to "La División Gris." Said Commissioner
Rube Furrow, "Sure, Amarilla's got a better ring to it,
but we've gotta go with Gris."
Amarilla,
which is Spanish for "yellow," has been criticized
as being weak, unforceful, and difficult to read against white
backgrounds. Gris, which is Spanish for "gray," has
long been favored as bold and as a better contrasting shade.
"We're not going with that soft gray," Furrow said.
"We're going to give the division a gray that people can
read."
SLPL
owners were quick to criticize the move. Said one, speaking on
the condition of anonymity, "There goes our ROY-G-BIV motif."
Said another anonymous owner, "I'm not sure it's a bad idea
... it's just that, on principle, I can't support anything Furrow
does."
