CatKnight, I'll be following your league from its infancy.

I see Prescott on your map, on an island, and I know Prescott is unable to support a team in your league's first year, but should expansion ever come their way, might I be so bold as to suggest the nickname, Roughriders. Prescott, Arizona is my home town, and a famous statue graces the park surrounding the county court building, that of Bucky O'Neill on his rearing-up horse. O'Neill was Prescott's Sheriff in the late 1800s, a long time ago in your universe, I know, and a member of Theodore Roosevelt's Roughriders cavalry unit, who fought in Cuba. O'Neill was killed in the charge up San Juan Hill. The name 'Roughrider' is sprinkled around the town in various ways, and is the nickname of the local community college. What an honor it would be for the Roughrider legacy to continue on Whitehorse.
