Lee. Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Meh, just like Kevin Costner's acting.Nowhere does this logo act wooden and slip in and out of midwestern accents.That being said, again, meh. Nothing great, nothing bad. You guys don't all still believe that "name the team" contests are real, do you? Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Field of Dreams, yeah yeah yeah.Obvious conflict 1: When the Fielders are at bat, their opponents are the fielders.Obvious conflict 2: You've inadvertently named the team after a prominent player on the Cubs' rivals. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burmy Posted May 28, 2009 Author Share Posted May 28, 2009 Field of Dreams, yeah yeah yeah.Obvious conflict 1: When the Fielders are at bat, their opponents are the fielders.Obvious conflict 2: You've inadvertently named the team after a prominent player on the Cubs' rivals.And my home team, too! Still, it they'd wanted to go that route, I'd've suggested naming them the "Braun". Brings a really strong connotation.Of course:1. Fielder might not be with my Brew Crew in 2010.2. Works better than "Dyes," "Thomes," "Konerkos," "Pujols," or "Wainwrights". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I was really hoping for "Eagles" or "Demons" on this one. While being fairly traditional sounding names, either would refer to one of the long-standing roller coasters at Great America, which is also located in Lake County in Gurnee. It would have worked in a fashion quite similar to the Brooklyn Cyclones.I left the other old coaster at Great America out of the mix because, well, "Lake County Whizzers" could present a few issues.

The_Admiral Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 They purposely avoided an explicit reference to Gurnee. Of course, this is an implicit reference to Iowa, so who knows. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Might as well call 'em the Lake County Splashwater Falls if you're gonna do that. I was also thinking something along the lines of "Border Bandits," but I think that's treading too close to ABA territory.By the way, where's the eighth team going to be next season?
