Gary Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 just found out that Kansas City's new UHL team name has been narrowed down to 3:ExpressOutlawsandTwistersHeres a question who would have a concept for any one of these 3 options and in my opinion I think the Express sounds like the best to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kj Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 None of them are great, but of the three, Express seems to be a decent choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 I thought someone mentioned 'Carpenters', since Danbury and Detroit had already gone the blue-collar route? Or am I the victim of another senseless crime? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ez Street Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 I submitted each of those names.........i'm sure i won't win cause i'm not living in KC. Hmmmm, those names would have good for another team i know of.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yh Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 I thought someone mentioned 'Carpenters', since Danbury and Detroit had already gone the blue-collar route? Or am I the victim of another senseless crime? I can just see the logo now - an emaciated female holding a microphone and gagging herself over a toilet.That's right folks, I have no class.

Gary Posted July 22, 2004 Author Share Posted July 22, 2004 yeah theres a thought for ya but she was annorexic and not bulemic so that wouldn't be a good logo but I think the Express would be a great name and wonder what the logo for that would be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 That's right folks, I have no class. Understandable, Yale. You're a lawyer.But hey!

Gary Posted July 22, 2004 Author Share Posted July 22, 2004 hey guys lets keep on the subject lol... what name would look better as a logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twi Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Back to the topic , I like the Express name. I used to live outside KC, and the Pony Express is a pretty big history thing there. I think they could get something decent out of this.EDIT: You're too quick for me, lilg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ez Street Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 I like Outlaws first, the could do a great logo.Express is cool, a nice Train Logo would be obvious.Twisters, MEH, KC doesn't get as many Twisters as Southern Kansas and Northern Oklahoma. It's a bit dull for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kess Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Not really crazy about Outlaws or Twisters. I think "Express" could be pretty cool if done right. The train is obvious, but I like twi's Pony Express idea.Too bad they can't just bring back the Scouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted July 22, 2004 Author Share Posted July 22, 2004 If anyone follows the UHL they have a team called the Muskegon Fury which has a Tornado man with a hockey stick and a face and if Kansas City was to use the name Twisters it would kind of be a rip off of the Fury Logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or naked young co-eds, slathered in crisco, playing...um....Twister....I'll be right back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted July 22, 2004 Author Share Posted July 22, 2004 I think that would be the first ever rated R logo if anyone ever saw it but I personally like the Express and Outlaws at least they seem like they would have a great logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yh Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Express would really be co-opting St. Joseph's claim to fame so I'd be more apt to support Outlaws. I'd ditch Twisters for the reasons stated above regarding the similarities to be drawn to Muskegon's logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 I think Outlaws could become a bitchin' logo and color scheme, and lends itself well to the more aggro side of the sport.I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCScout76 Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 My personnal preference is the Outlaws, and I'm not fond of the Express (and that's the one we may end up with) Actually all the name aren't bad - I hope the team colors are good and the logo does not suck.Some news from the UHL on the KC team: Kansas City Hockey (click here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
