New York Rangers Unless you count that Central Park cop on horseback, there ain't no rootin', tootin' Texas lawmen anywhere near Madison Square Garden. They were christened the Rangers because their founder was named "Tex" Rickard, and the local press dubbed his new hockey team "Tex's Rangers." Too bad "Tex" was fromMissouri. Suggested New Name: The New York Pee Smell

That is priceless. 
It is so weird how you never forget that pee smell when you walk up from NJ transit to street level at NY Penn Station.
And all to funny that a national mag like Maxim makes fun of them. Love it.
Not enough humor/satire-type columns pick on NY; it's about time.

I'm loving it! I always wondered how the hell they did get their name.

THanks for posting this I had a hearty laugh.

is there a nickname for the beggar squeegie windshield people?
if not "The NY Pee Smell" is clearly more appropriate than the silly "rangers"...
a cool name would have been the "NY Sand Hogs"...

I also like what they say about the Toronto Raptors and renaming them the Toronto Maple Leaves "to further annoy hockey fans."
