I like the Tikis for a Hawaiian team. Whatever you do for them make sure you tie it into the islands native history. Great stuff can't wait to see what you come up with!

The expansion franchises will be:

-Honolulu

-Seattle

-Toronto

-Detroit

-Sydney

-Moscow

Well, here are my suggestions:

Honolulu --- Hawai'i Tsunami or perhaps Pacific Volcanoes

Sydney - I really like the "Roos" idea, so that would be a good choice, but Aussie Outbackers might work too

Moscow - Of course, "Reds" is the obvious nickname, but "Legion" isn't bad......perhaps Moscow Vodkamen?

Toronto - Ontario Outlanders, or Toronto Troubadors, or Toronto Mounties (they always get their man......)

Detroit - Michigan Machinists, or Michigan Machine, or Detroit Dons (in honor of the Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola)

Seattle - Seattle Needles, or Northwest Needles, or Washington Whitecaps, or Washington Whalers, or Washington Whale Watchers, or Seattle Storm

And I do like the subtle "M" hidden in the Moscow logo....

Making that gear made me want to apply that to the Detroit logo, haha. I'll make more tweaks to them tomorrow. I was thinking of curving the text to flow with the top curve of the shields, it might clash better that way.

And either a crown or a star would fit nicely in that white space on the bottom logo, now that I look at it.

I don't mind the first logo, but I'm not big on the other ones. Only reason being is that it seems too soccer to me. Your other non-English speaking European teams (Stags, Sentinels) still have logos that are very "pro football". For some reason these Moscow concepts just don't feel that way to me.

I'm also Australian and i agree with lancealot that most of teams are named kangaroos or roos so that wouldn't be the best suggestion for Sydney.

Here are my suggestions:

Honolulu: Tikis

Sydney: Warratahs or Kookaburras

Moscow: Reds or Soviets

Detroit: Eagles or Mechanics

Toronto: Reds or Hart or Beavers

Seattle: Rockers or Pioneers

I think the Seattle Ospreys would be nice... it's an underused sea bird and something I think you could build a pretty unique concept around.

Oh is this where you put your teams title successes?

Well let's see, I support Northampton Town FC...

We've spent just one year in the top flight of English football in our entire history and that was in the 60's...

And that's it. We've been around for 115 years and that's all we have to show for it...

Oh, and I like the Cubs. I think I hate myself...
