Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 I would have went with the Nightingales, (and the) Machines, or Hendersons. Oh, I was right there with you, man...I even mocked up a couple of hats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 I can live with that one, it is silliness, but as we can see from the others it could be much worse. I think it's bound to be the Y'alls...especially since they've had this fella walking around the games for the last 5 years or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 Minor League Baseball names are supposed to be dumb. Just off the top of my head, I can think of the following (I used to be obsessed with getting new MiLB hats, they're hilarious and great): Montgomery Biscuits Traverse City Pit Spitters Fond-du-Lac Dock Spiders I've got hats from several teams, myself: Savannah Sand Gnats Brevard County Manatees Frisco Rough Riders Kannapolis Cannon Ballers Hillsboro Hops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runcible Owl Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) The Go-Goettas has a certain, er ... grisly charm. My old school, "you kids get offa my lawn" choice - Blue Sox, after the Covington Federal League team in the 1910's. My current, other team faves: Akron Rubber Ducks Albuquerque Isotopes Edited January 21, 2020 by Runcible Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincySportsFan Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I hate that they are changing the name, I think it is a mistake. The name choices are just plain stupid. This is nothing but a publicity stunt and money grab, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Parker Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 In all seriousness, the Florence Fat Donkeys (except another word for donkey) would be better than those options listed above. Have an overweight donkey as the mascot. You'd sell all kinds of merchandise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlDog75 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 At first I thought "no way they're going to choose one of these idiotic names." But then stupidity seems to reign these days so I should not be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice of Reason Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Y'alls is ok. My second choice would Go-Goettas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEERFAN Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 After reading posts on social media I figured they dropped the idea. That wouldn't generate money though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballfan55 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 It looks like it is the Y'alls. I do like the color scheme. Interesting choice for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
