Daily Sun (January 22 2014) - THE ANGRY, unrepentant sports minister believes Bafana can't expect to be called "Lions" when they play like "a bunch of losers".
Disappointed SunReaders want to call them the Lazy Boyz, or Ba-Loser Ba-Loser, while others believe names like The Super Giants or Madiba Stars will help Bafana back to their winning ways.
BUT MOST SUNREADERS BELIEVE: IT'S TIME BAFANA BAFANA GOT A NEW NAME!
WE ASKED SunReaders on Facebook what they thought Bafana Bafana should be called in future. Thousands of SunReaders have given us their suggestions.
Luthando Siphoso wants the national football team to be renamed TBL Football Club . . . where TBL stands for "The Biggest Losers" and Jeff Jnr Mol likes "Makaka Makaka".
Bubele Seti wants them to be the "Tiger Boys" while Edo Noxy Milanzi believes a name like "Madiba Stars" will inspire them to do great things in the future.
