Your proposed newsgroup:
1.  Has a bad name.  There is no az.fan hierarchy.  Since the alt.fan 
    hierarchy is such a disaster, I don't think we really want one.
2.  Is too narrow.  We don't even have a general sports newsgroup.
3.  Shows no demand.  Fans of the "Voice of the Suns" are not currently 
    clogging any existing az groups.

I can understand wanting to show esteem and respect for Al, but this is not
the way.

Proposals for alt.suns-boy.al-mccoy.shazam.shazam.shazam will also be opposed.

Later,
Jeff
