Brandon Wheat

I'm not sure if this has been addressed, but it's just something that irks me in the WHL.

It's the Brandon - Wheat Kings.
Not the Brandon Wheat - Kings.
The city name is Brandon. Just Brandon.

In the standings page it says "Brandon Wheat".
It just annoys me a bit, is all.

lol I am assuming you're from Brandon to be saying something like that. You're able to edit the team name. I've lived near Brandon now 4 years, so I understand what you're saying though.

I actually noticed and fixed this the other week, but it wasn't in time for the patch. It'll be changed next time around. It somehow got parsed strangely when the initial data was converted from spreadsheet to database - the Edmonton Oil Kings (and various other Spruce Kings, Oil Barons, Iron Rangers, etc.) were handled correctly but Brandon's name got split in the wrong place.
