Max Van Herk 0 Posted July 18, 2010 I wouldn't mind seeing a kangaroo in sports. They're somewhat athletic, considering that they can hop. Probably would be best used for a basketball team.There are 2 of them at least:http://www.eventimagecenter.com/300x180/akron_zips300.jpghttp://achahockey.org/news_images/org_134/Image/Team%20Logos/canton.gifhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohemians_1905 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hettinger_rl 1,423 Posted July 22, 2010 I thought of another one today, the Wisent. Its basically a European Bison, but there are some physical differences. If Buffalo, NY has a sister-city in Europe it would be cool to see the Wisent Wills. (although the city name would have to be wisent in that case) 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

taantumus 5 Posted July 26, 2010 what about the lynx or ocelot?This of course isn't in American pro sports, but the most successful hockey club in Finland is called Ilves, which means lynx. They've got a pretty old school logo:Someone was talking about bats. It so happens to be, that for some reason a bat is an old symbol of luck in the city of Valencia, Spain. For that reason, both of their pro soccer teams have a bat on their logos. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidson 116 Posted July 26, 2010 A rhino and hippo. I saw a show the other day on Hippos and they are some mean SOB's. Don't let their portly look fool ya. I know when the Baltimore NFL expansion was on the table Baltimore Rhinos was one of the names on the short list. I would not have had a problem with that at all.I give you the Hutto Hippos!

DustDevil61 1,022 Posted July 26, 2010 I think some school has Camels as their nickname, but outside of that, I've never seen any other school or team use Camels.Other animals (or breeds of animals) I haven't seen too much, if at all:ParrotsTarantulasDeer/Elk (Milwaukee Bucks, WHA's Michigan Stags, as well as a handful of schools are about it)Goats (Aside from their relative, Rams)Crabs (Aside from the Lakewood Blue Claws)Dog (and one Cat) breeds:MastiffsRottweilersPit Bulls:Maine Coons: 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
