PackerBadger Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 ??Extreme? is a great name not only for an automobile dealership, but also for a football team.To quote the late Dr. McCoy in "Star Trek," "In a pig's eye." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClutchIsEverything Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Hmmm. I'd agree. New team in a new arena equals a nice opportunity to really take hold of the market, I don't think that name is the first step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sscrunner06 Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 That is the most un-extreme "Extreme" logo I have ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Apollo Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I'm guessing the owners 8 year old designed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennyRock Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 The Bloomington Extreme will have tryouts for local talent in December and a training camp in March before the season begins mid-March.Because, let's face it, no one outside of Bloomington, and very few inside it, I bet, cares.

leopard88 Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 It is a short step above the CBA's infamous Capital Region Pontiacs. I am not making this up. It was a team sponsored by the Albany area's Pontiac dealers.It might come in a tie with the CISL's Detroit Neon, which was obviously named after the Dodge automobile, since the wordmark is the same.

Burning River Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I have a buddy that played for the Neon... err.. neon. That is EXACTLY what they did. It was a total marketing campaign. The first year of the neon was the first year of the neon soccer team. Then.. in another stroke of genious, they became the Detroit Safari.Named after.. yep... the "Safari" vehicle.

gashouser27 Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 This is a horrible name.So when this team relocates they can call it an "Extreme Makeover" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterE Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 As a longtime lurker there is no better time than have my first post than now.I sent 4 nickname suggestions to the team's website when they had a naming contest before they decided to go with the dealership's name.The arena group will get what it deserves when the team folds/relocates in a year or two any way.Now I'll just have to hope our UHL team gets a better name. Get Ron Santo in the Hall of Fame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
