Indians no more

[Moderator1]

Rockers - could come up with some good logos I'd think.
Because Cleveland Rocks.

 

[garrow]

Grovers

 

[Junkie]

McCoys

They're from Indiana.

 

[maumann]

Cleveland Brook Jacobys

IJAG just got a shiver and doesn't know why.

And when I first read, "Cleveland has decided to change its name," I thought the Parma Seans would be awesome. Or the Euclid Geometrys.

 

[Baron Scicluna]

The Cleveland States.

The NCAA would hire Manfred in two seconds.

[HanSenSE]

Wasn't Rockers the nickname for an Arena League team?

Rockers was the name of the WNBA team that was there for a couple years. Minus that, I would almost bet money on that one.

They're from Indiana.

The Zehringers were from Fort Recovery and Rick lived there until high school, but, yeah, the band is considered ofUnion City (Ind.) .

But half the town is in Ohio, so it’s a fraught ownership ince Ohio State claimed it for its own.

And here I thought it was a homage to the Boston Tea Party. Atlanta Rustlers would be very cool.

 

[Vombatus]

I’m trying to come up with something related to Rockefeller (besides Rocks), Standard Oil and gasoline.

Cleveland River Fires?

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

My preference is Cleveland Captains, in honor of Admiral Perry and the Battle of Lake Erie.

Their Class A affiliate about 15 miles down the road is named the Captains.

 

[maumann]

Cleveland Lakers would be way more appropriate than a team just 15 minutes from Tahoe.

 

[tapintoamerica]

The Ten-Cent Beer Nights?

 

[TrooperBari]

I'm up for whatever leaves space for the most Howard the Duck tie-ins. Cleveland Cherry Bombs, maybe?

 

[heyabbott]

Euclid Indians or the Cuyahoga Indians?

 

[playthrough]

Washington Football Team has kind of grown on me, they should just keep it. (Do you really trust Snyder to get the new name right?) Cleveland Baseball Team, why not. There's a few other franchises that could stand to just be "Team" instead of out-of-place nicknames, like the Utah Jazz.

Their Midwest League affiliate in the suburbs is the Lake County Captains.

This is what happens when I reply and still have a page to read.
