FiddySicks Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I like this idea, hope it happens, but if the Saints move, they must change their name, LA Saints doesnt sound good, but LA Chargers sounds good to me it should be the Los angeles Chargers and the OC Mischa Bartons.

TBGKon Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 the only thing fanwise that will bea hinderence down here is that so many people still consider themselves part of Raider Nation down here even though they've been gone for a decade. We even had a Raider store last year at the local mall. Just makes me wonder if enough fans will finally stop their denial and support the new team. LA Pro Football Historyhere is a list of names that would possibly work tooI'm sure they will...Los Angeles Dons sounds pretty cool, and they could really give it a traditional feel. Los Angeles Stars sounds good too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian in Boston Posted May 25, 2005 Author Share Posted May 25, 2005 Los Angeles Stars sounds good too Larry Ellison, the co-founder and CEO of database software firm Oracle, is extremely interested in bringing an NFL expansion franchise to Los Angeles. If successful in doing so, he has indicated that he would name the franchise the Los Angeles Stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustangdmg Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Los Angeles Stars? I don't think the Cowboys and NFL Properties people would go for it. Try to think of a Stars logo on a helmet. The Arizona High School Helmet Project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appleclock Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Cant help but feel there'd be public outcry if the Chiefs tried to leave town, much like the whole Cleveland debacle of the late 1990s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't I think of that?Man I'm stupid Yeah, true, but... in this case "Dons" has nothing to do with that.When the AAFC team was founded in 1946, its ownership group couldn't come up with a name that tied closely to the L.A. market either. As a lark they decided to give the team a tentative name, dubbing it the "Dons" in honor of minority shareholder/actor Don Ameche. The name, however, stuck, and wasn't replaced for the duration of the franchise's existence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plaid Paint Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Look, there isn't going to be a team in the LA area until there is an actual stadium that the NFL approves of, which means LA is going to be teamless for a minimum of 5, more likely 10 years.
