I LOVED "Charleston Charge!"

goroyals · 02-20-2003, 09:50 PM

What do you think of the Fort Worth Tycoons? So named because of rich oil tycoon owner Tex Ewing. Here is their logo.

SimSportsWorld · 02-20-2003, 10:03 PM

Charleston Charge... that's a classic, very creative

[WWBL]Batboy · 02-21-2003, 01:10 AM

Austin Power(s)

[WWBL]Batboy · 02-21-2003, 02:08 AM

on a serious note

being from the south myself I would suggest that a team be named the Kudzu
it does cover over 7 million arces in the South East
or
maybe Kudzu Kats
Kudzu Kings

Memphis Blue (suede) Shoes

another name to use could be Dixie
the Dixie Sticks or Bats
the Dixie 9
the Dixie Diamonds

the Stonewalls
the Lees
the Grays
the Rebels
the Confederates

Leana Horne, Otis Redding, James Brown, "Little Richard", and, the Allman Brothers are all from Macon
maybe the Macon Music? Music Makers?

good luck

keep us posted

I like the Memphis Blues or Blue Caps for that logo.

goroyals · 02-21-2003, 03:54 PM

Waht do you think of the Winston-Salem Wingmen? I choose that because of NC's rich traditon in flight.

goroyals · 02-21-2003, 03:57 PM

I got it! The perfect name for that logo of Memphis. Since that will be my personal team it had to be something special. What do you think of the 'Memphis Mafia'!

goroyals · 02-21-2003, 05:04 PM

Let's see if I can't get my Wingmen logo posted here.

goroyals · 02-21-2003, 05:05 PM

Edit: Never mind unless some one knows a good way to post logos off my computer.

I suggested that for someone else here recently looking for a nickname for Memphis. It works well because that was the nickname for the musicians that use to make up Elvis Presley's posse.

Cooleyvol · 02-21-2003, 06:55 PM

Jacksonville Jackals
Ft. Lauderdale Power
Winston-Salem
Charleston Charlies
Mobile Mob
Macon Monsters
Orlando Sun
Ft.Myers Sharks
Birmingham Battlers
Baton Rouge Ruffians
Nashville Pickers
Raleigh Roustabouts
New Orleans Nightmare
Memphis Mafia
Fort Worth Fighters
Austin Armadillos

Dark Horse · 02-21-2003, 11:33 PM

i had a fictional team in one of my solo leagues called Mobile Assault. i used a tank for the logo. Then Austin was the Texans. Or you can call them the Lone Stars.

If you're still looking for nicknames you can always go with:

Black Sox, Blue Sox, Gold Sox
White Caps, Red Caps, Blue Caps
Blue Collars
