Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for November 12, 2015

Nateprobably dislikes the ‘cat’ part of it

Gotta agree with Nate, Bobcat boys is more terrible than Enslave the Mollusk.

Has Francis already mapped out their choreography? It sounds like a boy band, and they’re too young for one of them to have a goatee.

Francis might be a whiz in his classes but I bet he is “hip clueless.” Like that polka DJ on Good Morning, Vietnam.

So much for Francis being the straight man

instead of changing the name why cant they just have john cena on stage… and his name is JOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHN..

Was thinking the same as Nate before reading the last line. Also agree with the kid, it sounds like something of an 80’ies cartoon show – and the “my little pony” kind, not “Swatcats” or “Yogi Bears treasure hunt”.The name also gets me wondering is the principal will “insist” on the name change a have them play the team anthem “Bobcat pride”.

Oh, and DEMGRAYEYESDOH, did you say yes to my suggestion just because you liked the name or have you read it??

that is the worst name in the world

Enslave the MolluskS is the best

nate will be dumped if bobcat boys goes public!!!1

What will Trudy think of this

He played on a FOOTball team named bobcats.Also basketball team with the same name.

How about “Two Dorks and A Nerd?”

Not really little boy.

“The Bobcat Boys” reminds me of the Disney-based Cheetah Girls.

Nate, stay strong. “Enslave The Mollusk” is a much, much, MUCH better band name.

Now, grab some headphones, listen to lots of Radiohead, Flaming Lips, Portishead, Sonic Youth and Sigur Ros…..

Alex: The answer is What are bobcat boys?dingMe: What do cougars hunt, Alex?

“The Bobcat Boys,” sounds like the name of a 5-car sales lot and title loan title loan operation in Phoenix, with homemade ads running after midnight on local TV.

…..yeah…a name, all right: a doofussy name!! That’s like calling themselves The Leave It To Beavers!

Could also be a barbershop quartet.

Next!

in a dorkily weird way, thats actually a GOOD name!

or LODED DIPER

why do you even WANT to change it? Enslave the Mollusk is a cool name!

The Trudies — with Trudy as lead singer (and guitarist if she plays.)

Granite Croissant

how bout INAZUMA ELEVEN?

Guys! Now the Wild Kratts can be their sponsor! XD

Guys! Now the Wild Kratts can be their sponsor! XD

Stange Nate, that you couldn’t just suggest “Mollusks” as the name for the band — quite original and quite short (albeit annoying to Francis)! Or how about “Psychodogs” (the name you wanted to use for Fleeceball team)?

XD um… no, Francis… that’s too much school spirit XD

No no no no.

Solution: “Niknack Rock,” after Niknack Beach, the boys’ favorite hangout.

XD!

Look out p.b.s kids

That one clueless kid.

I disagree with Francis

wow

It sounds like a mid-90s boy band

Bobcat boys? That’s, as Nate has said, lame tastic

Enslave the mollusk Is, bad but bobcat boys sounds cringey
