BRUINSFAN Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Being born and raised in Boston (....many years ago) I have three suggestions:Boston "B-Men".....these were the unionized Longshore Men who worked the Boston docks in the 60's...sometimes called "Scalawags"!Boston "Townies"...a Townie back east is a "local", someone from one of the neighborhoods surrounding Boston who is true to the culture of their community.Boston "Commons"...in reference to the laage paak in the middle of Bostonnext to the Public Gaadens.I also think "Beacons" works well with reference to the hill on which stands the State Capitol Building. When Bobby Orr was asked why he always wore a cupbut not a helmet,he replied:"I can always getsomeone else to do my thinking for me!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian in Boston Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 What about Boston Pilgrims? Actually, the name Boston Pilgrims wouldn't have much historical relevance, given that Boston was established by Puritans, not Pilgrims. They were distinct religious movements.

illwauk Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I have some suggestions...Boston MusketeersBoston Reveres (as in Paul Revere)...heck, I think the Shamrox nickname is a heck of a lot more appropriate for Boston, given the ties to the Celtics.Forget the Celtics. Chicago has a rich Irish heritage, too. I'm with dsgitlin. Boston Saints. Equitas. Veritas.Actually, most Great Lakes and Northeastern cities had/have a large Irish presence. Besides, Chicago is much more well known for its Polish population where the Irish are the first ethnicity you think of when thinking of Boston.

Swiss Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 What about Boston Pilgrims?I was wondering if the Sox would lay claim to that, but apparently it wasn't an official team name, so its doable. But you'd kinda be restricted to black and white uni's.. According a baseball unis' book I have, the Boston Pilgrims used white and black unis. So you are right.But the NLL Boston Pilgrims may not use this color theme. It's just a historical nickname, not a complete theme.

Milo Meningocele Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I think they should go with Gigantes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Aww... all the good names have been taken.. (j/k)I'm sure that it will be Boston as the city name, but anyone think they would use 'New England'?Well, I suggested "New England Sentinels" awhile back. If they use Boston instead, that tells me the NLL also has its eye on Hartford, Manchester and/or Providence for future expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred T. Jane Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I think they should go with Gigantes.Athach. [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

DarkJourney Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Sounds like its not just Boston, Vancouver is supposedly the 2nd expansion team (yet to be confirmed).I guess it was announced on June 19th that the Vancouver Ravens will return for the 2008 season if they can secure an arena lease and sell 2,500 season tickets.
