Cool Nicknames to use for Football Teams

korme · 12-23-2005, 08:24 PM

Hey guys, hook up some ideas.

I'm using this logo set, but I want to replace a few and need nickname ideas to stem a new logo as well. Any good 'uns?

I liked the Hitmen from the XFL.

San Francisco Ass Pirates

or

New York Wife Beaters

Lots of good names that never seem to get used: Rogues, Zephyrs, Kodiacs, Lost Planet Airmen...wait, on that last one...

Nevermind. It's too hard to make different world's, unlike OOTP. I can't be a in a NFL multi-player league and try to have a fictional league on the side without going through too much of a hassle.

It's not that hard if you use batch files...

Agreed. Not much work to setup, and then you never need to worry about it again. My setup for example:

Kentucky MoonShiners

tucker342 · 12-31-2005, 11:44 AM

San Francisco Fairies
Los Angeles Crack Addicts

I have always loved using that one. I also took the Spiders nickname and used it with New Orleans. Both of those I think I have used several times in FOF and OOTP.

Cringer · 12-31-2005, 09:53 PM

Dola-

Toads (my Imperial team)
Roadrunners (another I have used)

In fact, just look at the Imperial League, I am biased but Ilike several of those nicknames.....

Matadors
Mountaineers
Chaos
Beasts
Lynx
Phantoms
Ogres
Mules
Cows

to name a few....

cuervo72 · 12-31-2005, 11:02 PM

The Huntsville Hamhockers.

And batch files or not, parallel universes really is something Jim should nail down. Just simple directories to store city, nickname, boxes and logs. Perhaps even a naming method that allows multiple simmers (not all leagues can have a single simmer who can have things covered *every* time - and even then, what if the simmer's computer gets zapped? Does that mess up log continutity?) But that's probably been discussed ad nauseum...

General Mike · 01-01-2006, 12:06 AM

Phantoms with the grim reaper mascot.
