Do you really love the regional professional lacrosse team? Do you want everyone to know? Now you can!

To be honest, until last week, I didn’t even know we had a professional lacrosse team. Well, it’s not particularly local — they’re the Chesapeake Bayhawks, after all — but you’ll still be able to show your passion for the team on your D.C. license plate in the near future.

The Washington Times’ Tom Howell reports that a D.C. Council committee has looked favorably upon legislation that would authorize the DMV to offer nine sports-themes license plates. The teams would include the Redskins, Nats, Caps, Wizards, Kastles, United, Mystics, Divas and Bayhawks. (The Washington Freedom, a women’s soccer team, was removed from consideration since it decamped for Florida.)

The new tags would cost $25 upfront and then $20 a year, and still feature the “Taxation Without Representation” slogan.

As we’ve reported in the past, these personalized tags would join a small offering of non-traditional license plates, including two specialty tags or a small number of organizational tags. (You still can’t have the council chairman’s plate, though.)

Now I realize that the D.C. Rollergirls aren’t formally a professional team, but if the Bayhawks get a tag, so should the Rollergirls.
