So he's insane. Got it. |

St. Louis? I think the "Archies" might be funny, but if they really want a name appropriate to the city, I'd say the St. Louis Felons is probably best. |

Banacek: So he's insane. Got it. And he's a season ticket holder; so that's really showing Kroenke too. It's too bad the NFL didn't do it like the Colts and Rams swap in the 70's; Shah gets the Rams in LA and Kroenke gets the Jags squad to St. Louis. Unless they do another expansion draft there's no way LA would take this Jaguars team as constituted*. And the geography doesn't get all shot to hell with AFC South. /* This is all moot if the Chargers or Raiders move to LA, however. |

I think they should call them the "Ribs." |

They are an AFC team that I have no personal relationship with. /if the Raiders move back... time to move |

They are an AFC team that I have no personal relationship with. /if the Raiders move back... time to move If they could swap the squads so at least LA fans could look forward to Sam Bradford and a decent defense they might have something. If you throw out Blaine Gabbert and a running-on-fumes MJD, it'll be The Mausoleum all over again. Agreed about the Raiders moving back but... if Mark the Ginger doesn't like the stadium deal somewhere in Alameda County or just doesn't want to deal with filling his father's shoes and thinks the 30-40% AEG apparently wants to get Farmer's Field to happen isn't too much... you might be welcoming them back. |

| IAmRight The Pilots is a sh*tty name and the Pilothouse is horrible enough that people would be excited to call it by its sponsor's name. |

You effing whiners won the super bowl a mere 12 years ago, and you are already crying? How about calling yourself the St Louis Whiners. |

| butt-nuggets
how about St Louis Gamblers and Hail Mary Field |

It might give them a sense of character if anyone in the country associated the word "pilot" with anything besides airplanes, furnaces, and water heaters. |

| teto85 The team name was derived from the Fordham Rams. The original owner was a fan of Fordham University in the days when small colleges on Manhattan were considered football powers. And they where in Cleveland. St. Louis Pilots makes more sense than St. Louis Rams, but we are talking about the NFL here. |

Pilots? I'm sure that team will stick around. |

St. Louis Stallions? It almost happened once, might as well give it a go. |

The best team name history-wise is the Baltimore Ravens. |

The St. Louis Monsantons. (Monsanto = chemical co. based there, though now with new name) |
||
| phyrkrakr
Well, their colors are already navy/gold, just like the hockey team, so why not call them the Blues, too? |
