What else would you have the Houston club be named? Stupid sports names to me: Redskins LA Lakers STL Cardinals - state bird of MO is a Eastern Bluebird, State bird of IL is the Cardinal. LA Dodgers Utah Jazz Rays should be Sting Rays KC Royals - dont hate the name just there are better names for KC thought this was interesting: The temporary decision by the Boston National Leaguers to drop the color red from their uniforms led to a history-making decision: "Red Stockings had been part of all Boston National League teams up to 1907, but Fred Tenney, manager in that year, told Peter F. Kelley, the Boston Journal's baseball writer, he would abandon the red stockings tradition in favor of white stockings, because of the danger that colored stockings might cause leg injuries to become infected. Kelley wrote a story condemning Tenney for parting with the Boston National League club's tradition. The next day, John Irving Taylor, Boston American League club president, told the Boston Journal writer, 'Here's a scoop for you. I am going to grab the name Red Sox, and the Boston American League club will wear red stockings." (BBG)

EDIT: The Tampa Bay Sting Rays doesn't sound right to me. I like the name "Rays," but I think they need to re-incorporate the stingray back into their design - along with the current sunburst. They could keep both. EDIT2: The Redskins really need to go. In the same vein, the Blackhawks should keep their name but change their logo. Last edited by Fyrestorm3; 10-24-2013 at 10:40 PM. |

I like the Chihuahua name. It's all a matter of opinion. El Paso is a good baseball town too. I saw Pedro Martinez pitch in a minor league game there way back when.
Charlotte has changed their logo: Charlotte Knights Unveil New Look | As have the Arkansas Travelers: Arkansas Travelers Release New Identity, All-Star Game Logo | |

It has rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible.

Back on topic about the name given to the El Paso team:
You guys DO realize, don't you, that the name of the Mexican state just across the border from El Paso is "Chihuahua"? So perhaps that "silly" name doesn't ring quite so silly in Spanish and in Mexico. Maybe there's method in their madness. |
