Brian in Boston Posted February 11, 2005 Author Share Posted February 11, 2005 Rest assured that in the best of ABA-inspired traditions, they - and any other cities that have the interest and a valid ATM card - will be admitted to the CHA.

Lee. Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 The River Crest Gardens Tenants' Association (Eighth and Tenth Floors) of Winnipeg's Osborne Village hereby applies for a franchise.The team name shall be the Osborne Village Tigers Hockey Club of Winnipeg, and will base its logo on this:Team colors will be ochre, peuce, magenta, chalk, grey, sepia, and Brilliams! white.Names and numbers of the players will be rendered in Heiroglyphs, because according to our research, Egyptian mythology is really high among males, 12-15.Ooop. More research shows that kids really like dinosaurs, too, so we'll be working that in somewhere too. Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJR Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 I hereby apply for a franchise for Ypsilanti, Michigan. I've never been there, but I know I can make it work! They need another geographical rival. I'd like to apply for an expansion team in Lansing, Michigan. The team will play on the partially-frozen Grand River until I can get a rink set up in my back yard.

Brian in Boston Posted February 11, 2005 Author Share Posted February 11, 2005 Names and numbers of the players will be rendered in Heiroglyphs, because according to our research, Egyptian mythology is really high among males, 12-15.Ooop. More research shows that kids really like dinosaurs, too, so we'll be working that in somewhere too. As Commissioner/Chief Snake Oil Salesman of the CHA, might I suggest the Osborne Village PharaohSaurus Tigerzzz? The CHA's internal market research division (which consists of me drinking heavily and watching Cartoon Network) feels that this identity would resonate with fans across all ethnic groups and age brackets.We don't know why... we just do.We'd also like to suggest the following marketing slogan -Osborne Village PharaohSaurus Tigerzzz Hockey: Walk Like an Egyptian... Run Like a Dinosaur... Pounce Like A Tiger(zzz)!!!We here at CHA internal marketing research are fairly certain that the clip-art exists to make this identity package really come alive. Best of luck!What was your PIN number again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 I hereby apply for a franchise for Ypsilanti, Michigan. I've never been there, but I know I can make it work! Ypsilanti ... that's a funny city name. And, in that spirit, I believe franchises should be granted to Kalamazoo, Walla Walla, Rancho Cucamonga, Keokuk, and Seattle.I'd also like to put in a bid for the construction contract of the POONTank in Newark.
