Can't use any of them, though I'd give you rep for the Baltimore Browns, if this board used it.

It's funny that when you search Google for Cleveland Spiders, the first results are from baseball-reference.com and this site.

Chicago Clout...nice alliteration, and a pun, too.

Won't touch the USFL ones. The Black Sox are a troublesome issue too, if someone owns that copyright.

OOTP Baseball forum on par with baseball-reference.com. We hit the big time.


Not too many people get the Clout reference.

New York Mutuals (I'm a big fan of old-sounding names)
Detroit Bears (since real life already has the Lions and the Tigers)
Boston Fenians (an Irish paramilitary organization that tried to take over Canada in the 1860s)
Chicago Inferno
Cleveland Eagles (after the Grey Eagle himself, Honus Wagner)
Baltimore Athletic Club (or AC for short)
Washington DC Congress
Los Angeles Times

You put teams in Washington *and* Baltimore?

And eventually became the IRA...

I'd say Pilgrims for Boston.
