To report my colleagues fantasy football team name?

We have a work fantasy football league, it’s advertised on the internal intranet site and emails were sent around about sign up details etc.

The league has gone live tonight so you can see everyone’s team including their team names.

A colleague has a team name which references stopping the boats - would it be wrong of me to report this?

Have you nothing better to do with your time 🙄

A fantasy football team is a bit of fun. You might be taking it too seriously.

Why would you need to report it when it's live on the intranet?

I think if it’s a poorly thought out pun, like “stop the boots” or something that might be stupid but probably not malicious, and I knew the person, I would probably mention it to them first so they can change it. Otherwise yes, flag it

As someone who works managing intranets etc, I would flag up to HR. They should have a way to keep this confidential (as in you reporting it) and the skills to address this as an unacceptable action in a professional workplace.

Such a thing would be absolutely against my company's policies. I might wait to see if they get suitably embarrassed rather than reporting immediately though,

Of course, it's Friday night.
