THERE ARE NO RAMS IN LOS ANGELES THE TEAM NAME NEEDS TO BE CHANGED

THIS IS IMPORTANT, NOBODY CAN FEAR A RAM SINCE ITS EASILY KILLED.

LA IS NOT KNOWN FOR HIGH PEAKS NOR WILDLIFE.

THE TEAM NEEDS TO BE RENAMED

HOW CAN ONE FEAR A GLORIFIED SHEEP?

So? Its not like there are any actual lions in Michigan or Patriots in Boston.

>da name needs to be scary!

Nobody in their right mind, least of all professional athletes, is intimidated by a team's name/logo/whatever.

A name should have historical/cultural/geographic significance to the area, and that's it.

Insisting a team be named after something aggressive is how you get dumb names like the Jacksonville Jaguars or Carolina Panthers

>Isn't this just a shorter version of Canadians? Which is already used? WTF? Make a mascot out of the actual name retards and you'll see how retarded it is. Most of all it sounds like the word "cuck"

>Senators
Corrupt politicians of Canada are probably the scariest sounding thing they could think of. At least you elected a literal fag as your leader now.


Not even ONE football team in the real league so you all have a fake football league

tl;dr take a hike A FUCKING LEAF
>>
>>64888895
Meanwhile in Canada people rally behind the national symbol of a leaf.

Nothing exemplifies the brittle, weak and dying nature of Canada like the leaf.
>>
Whenever a team moves it reminds of how monetized everything is in this country. Of course businesses need to make money, but a lot of actual governments and people get fucked because they think they're entitled to any team. Owners prove that the way to get your team out works every single time. Football is the most Jewish league.

STEP 1: Complain about the stadium
STEP 2: Don't invest your own money into renovating the stadium
STEP 3: Make sure your team sucks for a long time
STEP 4: Watch as the fans stop coming because they know you're a shit owner and won't waste 80 bucks to watch a team suck ass.
STEP 5: Complain to league about falling attendance and how you can't make money
STEP 6: ???
STEP 7: PROFIT

See: Seattle Supersonics, LA Rams the first time, Houston Oilers, Browns, Balitmore Colts

You have to be literally retarded to be serious. Team names mean what you want the team to be or some sort of historical/geographical significance. The best team names combine the two.

The Canadians took one look at pro-sports and decided to name half their teams after A FUCKING LEAF and some variation of "Canadian." Yes you are in Canada we get it, we knew that by, you know, the preceding city name before the team name.

The other half lets just name after stupid fucking things like a small ass bird who never hurt anyone.

Lions are native to England at all but they still used them as their national symbol centuries before they colonized anywhere.

At least Jacksonville and Carolina are similar climates to those where panthers and jaguars exist.

Its better than the Canada Leafs or the Canada Canadians.

I'm not saying those are great names, but they're a hell of a lot better than just naming it after something to scare people. I know if I were a professional athlete, and I were playing a team called the chupacabras or some stupid shit like that, I probably wouldn't even be able to play due to sheer terror of looking at their logos.
I'm sorry you find it so frustrating I don't find the fact your team is named after a big cat scary.

Oh so it must have a military theme or perhaps some sort of war theme NOPE A FUCKING LEAF

The Habs C logo is old as fuck, I don't know exactly what you want for a team named the Canadiens. It's on par with every other team with a letter for a logo.

The Leafs logo is shit but that doesn't really make a difference in the team logo.

The Canucks original logo before they joined the nhl was a lumberjack but they got saddled with the orca due to corporate interest. I think you would love the orca though BECAUSE HOLY SHIT HE LOOKS MEAN AND INTIMIDATING LOOK HE'S BARING HIS TEETH THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT A LOGO SHOULD BE I'VE JUST SHIT MY PANTS.

Because everyone knows a logo is a literal representation if the team name right? And even if you've got an intimidating name you've got to scare the other team even further with your logo

There have always been rumors of black Panthers being let go in southern forests during the slave trade. I live in Mississippi and have always heard stories about how slavers brought Panthers and other big cats with them on the boats and when no one bought them, they let them go in the forests.

>THERE ARE NO RAMS IN LOS ANGELES THE TEAM NAME NEEDS TO BE CHANGED

>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert_bighorn_sheep
>In southern California, by 1998, only 280 individuals of the peninsular bighorn sheep population remained, and that population was added to the list of the United States' most imperiled species.[10] Populations in three southern counties had suffered greatly from disease, development, and predation. As of 2008, about 800 peninsular bighorns are believed to populate the desert backcountry from the US-Mexico border to the San Jacinto Mountains, with known populations in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park.

Ironically though the name comes from Cleveland, who named their team after a collegiate team in New York City (Fordham Rams) because it was "short" and would "fit into newspaper headlines"

so pretty much the most L.A. name ever, works for me.

go back to your basement you assburger is showing, also your retardedness is beyond belief. you need to realize there are multiple professional teams in every city and using a name is a practical way to identify which team we're talking about. but of course you can't realize that cause you hail from poor-tugal and can't afford multiple sports teams in one town
