I thought about Toros for Dallas but that's similar to the Texas Longhorns. I also want to stay away from Outlaws or Bandits. I might do Keystones for Pittsburgh and maybe Armadillos for Dallas. Thanks everyone one though for your suggestions. This is really for the person that said "bull riding is really big in Dallas, right?" yes, everyone in Dallas rides horses to work...as I shake my head in disbelief. Dallas is a VERY metropolitan, high tone town...as you should know from the last 50 years of the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldogs, Wildcats, Bears, Reds/Blues/Greens. Otherwise, the area started based on the fur trade, so Trappers could work. I like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagleiiied Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Back in 2001, I was a big WWF fan. The creation of the XFL back then got me thinking about creating my own league. The following is the league that I created. Some names have evolved during the years, but the cities and divisions have always remained the same. This is the inaugural season teams, and expansion did happen in later years. National League West Los Angeles Blue Waves San Diego Mangitude Denver Mountaineers Las Vegas High Rollers Central St. Louis Archers Chicago Crosswind Milwaukee Monsters Cincinnati Sky Hawks South Miami Shine Atlanta Predators Carolina Rush Dallas Bandits East New York Freedom Philadelphia Inferno Washington Stars Detroit Riot American League West San Francisco Commanders Seattle Reign Arizona Scorps Albuquerque Aliens Central Kansas City Monarchs Indianapolis Ironwings Minnesota Gladiators Nashville Silverbacks South Tampa Bay Sun Sharks Orlando Badgers New Orleans Rhythm Houston Zodiac East Boston Quest Baltimore Wolves Pittsburgh Pioneers Cleveland Jam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RavenclawWiz816 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 I'm trying to come up with names with these cities, but I haven't been able to figure them out. Most of the names I've seen used for these have seemed too minor league-ish for me. Do y'all have any suggestions? Anaheim Brooklyn (New York) Miami Milwaukee Minnesota (Minneapolis) San Jose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, same with Orlando, Anaheim would be nothing without Disney. San Jose: Hard to resist doing Silicon Valley names.

My main LA team are called the Los Angeles Aftershock, and I've thought about switching the Aftershock name to Anaheim, but then I couldn't think of what to call LA either.

Anaheim could do a "Raptors" move and name them after a popular movie during the time they were founded or being conceived Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about Shock? Have an Eel as the mascot but also ties into technology/electricity. I know Eels aren’t really from their but penguins aren’t from Pittsburgh and bengal tigers don’t live in Cincinnati. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've decided to name Anaheim the Aftershock and make LA the Stars, so thank you Darknes for the suggestions there. And for as good of a name the San Jose Shock is, I think it's too similar to the Aftershock for it to work. 1 hour ago, JG36 said: Any time I think Minnesota I usually go with something forest related, like Wolves, Grizzlies, Bruins, etc That's a good suggestion. I'll probably use something like Coyotes or Bears or something like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrano123 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 For those of you that run your own solitaire college athletic leagues: what are some go-to conference names that you've been able to come up with? I do mainly fictional college sports and have difficulty coming up with conference names as of late other than the obvious (i.e. Big North, Pacific Coast) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
