Bomba Tomba Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Ravens have a special meaning for Baltimore because of Edgar Allan Poe That meaning is lost if you give the Ravens brand to Indy You need something with a special meaning to Indy, like Racers or something 1 Quote If you read on the card you'll be cheating on your heart.

heavybass Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 Right, right just wanting to check. Indy Ravens didn't sound right in my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted August 25, 2023 Author Share Posted August 25, 2023 And so the lawsuit was settled and Jim Irsay was ousted as owner... the new owner decided that Bombers was an eyesore considering the outcry and all... and so a new identity was needed, one made of steel, hot blood and fortitude of the midwest. The Indy Bombers are now known as the....INDIANAPOLIS IRON Looking at the NFC.... a backbone of black and grey was absent and the Iron fills that niche.... no logo but that's because the stripe represents the I. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted August 26, 2023 Author Share Posted August 26, 2023 And before we eventually get to Wave 3.... which will be coming back after I update the college branding in the other threads, Dallas decided to look at Atlanta and figured let's make a silver that we can use as our white... This one might be a hit or miss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavybass Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 Time for Wave 3 and we're going to begin with a bang or rather a roar as in terms of expansion a 2nd team in Chicago was ready in the works... in fact plans were to revive the Chicago Tigers and play them in the AFC but the Chicago Bears or rather the letches that destroyed Chicago aka the Halas clan objected massively to this and threatened a massive federal lawsuit that would of put an end to the third wave of expansions. However an offer from Nevada changed their minds as the team decided to move westward to the bright lights...LAS VEGAS TIGERS Showing off what Black and Gold can REALLY do as a broad swipe to the Steelers and at the same time half adopting the stripes of the Bengals.... Tiger Gold and Vegas Silver compliment Black and White as the Tigers play in the multi billion dollar Tiger's Den stadium. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 They play in the NFC West complimenting the 49ers, the Cardinals, the Chargers, the Sun and the Rams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomba Tomba Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Not feeling this one chief Good color scheme but "Tigers" is just too bland of a name in a league where there's something similar but unique (Bengals) Quote If you read on the card you'll be cheating on your heart.

heavybass Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 I figured the name fits the blandness that is sin city? Much like elvis in his late years or Siegfried and Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 Should I consider doing another team befitting of Vegas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilSox Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Definitely. Aces, Gamblers, Knights, and Outlaws are all worthy names. Yes I'm aware that most of those have been names of actual teams, but that shouldn't matter in a project like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted August 29, 2023 Author Share Posted August 29, 2023 Ahhhh I think you missed out on an actual team there Milsox. How about I offer the short lived team from the CFL?LAS VEGAS POSSE The Posse ride their way into Sin City ready to take on all comers.

heavybass Posted August 30, 2023 Author Share Posted August 30, 2023 I think what I'm going to do is make 2 teams for each expansion city and see what you guys think is the better of the two, sounds like an idea for the rest of the thread.

heavybass Posted August 30, 2023 Author Share Posted August 30, 2023 And for Posse v2 without making them too Saintsy as Bomba said... so let's go all silver for the road! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavybass Posted September 1, 2023 Author Share Posted September 1, 2023 Next up on the ole expansion wave of the third variety.... we're heading to Nashville!TENNESSEE TITANS ..... "hears crickets" Ok so hear me out.... I don't like the Titans current look because it's unfitting for a team that used to be called the Oilers... HOWEVER for an expansion team that is treated as an offshoot of the Nashville Predators whose ownership group includes Pekka Rine, you could say things are hella fine right now. I imagine saying this whilst the room i'm sitting in is on fire. Literally. "looks around"SEND HELP! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
