jamesfruth Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Putting together some design concepts for the new XFL and am trying to come up with names. Here is what I have so far. Let me know what you think or what your suggestion would be for the new team nicknames! 1. St. Louis Clydesdales (Clydes) - Home of AB Gunners (First STL football team in the 30s) Archers 2. Dallas Marshalls Twisters (Tornado, also someone who breaks a horse) Americans (Play on America's team, also tribute to Arlington Cemetery) Military's team 3. Houston Barons (Oil Barons as a reference to the Houston Oilers) Voyagers Comets 4. LA Shooting Stars Waves Pacs (Pacifics) 5. New York Fivers (5 Burroughs) Empire Expatriates (Expats) Word that means immigrant, or not from here 6. Seattle Emeralds Steelheads SeaWolves - (Play against the SeaHawks) 7. Tampa Bay Explorers (Marco Polo) Firebolts (Word for lightning) Racers (Refer to speed boats) 8. Washington DC Gladiators - Rome Architecture Federals (Feds) Paladins - DC referred to as "Camelot" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake3roo Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Most (well, 4/8) of the original XFL team nicknames didn't end in S, and I suspect most of the new ones won't either. Think more along the lines of Empire, as well as more outside-the-box ideas like "Maniax", "Xtreme", or "Rage" like the old ones. The team names you have sound awesome and creative, but they aren't nearly terrible enough for the XFL. (except Firebolts, that sounds crazy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WideRight Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 This is the XFL version 2.0 we are talking about, so if they want to really represent the teams, they should go with: LA Empty Seats St. Louis Spite Tampa Bay Noshows New York Meh Seattle Rain Delays Houston HoHum Dallas Free Tickets Washington Windchill-kept-us-homers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed618 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I already posted my ideas in my own thread, and I’m confident that the league can come up with respectable identities for these teams that we can take seriously. I believe in this league. I believe that with good management at the top, and a good product on the bottom, it can give the NFL a long-overdue run for its money... but it all starts with the right packaging.
