Their deliciously orange jerseys are inspired by Tang the powdered fruit-flavored drink, originally formulated for space flight in 1959 — thus the name Tangsta. The team gets their "gangsta" from the musical stylings of Bell Biv Devoe and Coolio, and HBO's Boardwalk Empire.
Not only is Tangsta the number 1 team two seasons in a row, they have the coolest and most sportwomen-like temperaments in the entire Women's league!

Twangster 

A person, usually male, that can't seem to decide between being a cowboy, and being a gangster. These people usually wear an odd assortment of clothing and accesories that include: cowboy hats, hurley caps, leather boots, jackets with emo loops, chaps and jeans, big gangster rings, lots of bling, gloves and knives. They tend to be more aggressive when traveling in groups of 3 or more. Twangsters usually seem to join whatever group seems to be more dominant at the time, and will not hesitate to switch when possible.
