I really love the logo that Grid Iron created for New Orleans, but I'm not sure if the name Breakers really does it justice. In the spirit of new old ownership (?), I am thinking of changing the team name, but I would like the help of my fellow owners. Please vote for your choice of names in the above list, or if you have a name suggestion please add it to the thread.

I can't guarantee that I will use the name that is the most popular, but I will take it into consideration.

Thanks!

Nothing could be better than Death Monkies. Except maybe the "Diaper-clad Monkey Butlers," but that doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. So I say go with the Death Monkies.

All hail the Death Monkies!

The monkeys find this disrespectful.

The monkeys are displeased.

The monkeys grow angry.

Look behind you.

Monkeys.

New Orleans Raging Orc Horde is so-so
New Orleans Raging Horde is better
New Orleans Horde is the best

But just remember . . . if you take any of these names, the Shreveport faithful WILL refer to your team as the New Orleans Whores . . .

;)

You could go with the New Orleans Raging Monkeys.

That way everyone on the board could call your team the NORMS.

I'm waffling between keeping the Breakers, or going to the Dark Legion or Horde...

I also think "Horde" is the best although, being a big fan of acronyms, I do like Raging Monkeys to make NORMs.

I have also been inspired to come up with a few suggestions:

-Green Guys in Salad Bowl Helmets
-Uglies
-Pork (or even Green Pork, which leads to Green Ham and Eggs)
-Hording Monkey Whores
-Whoring Monkey Horde
-Savages
-Voodoo Beasties (It IS New Orleans you know)
-Slobberknockers (I really like the sound of New Orleans Slobberknockers)
-Hellions
-Ne'er-Do-Wells
-Warriors (simple and retro, but fitting...)
-Urakai (as we all know, Orcs could only play night games while the Urakai could play both day and night games) *beep*beep*beep* Sorry, set off the geek alert again...

Anyways, I like Horde, Hellions, Urakai, and Slobberknockers with regards to tying together the team name, logo, attitude, and the like.

I'll spam ya later if I come up with any more entertaining ideas...

I actually had to look it up on the web and it's all over the place as 'Urakai'.

At least I now know that I'm not the biggest geek in the CFL... :wink:

I voted for the Raging Orc Horde, but I agree with the others that it could be improved. Raging Horde would be better, at least.
