Pick your poison - what do you want the new name to be?

[MikefromOH]

Obviously a concept, but I'd be ok with that name

Am I the only one who’d like to see the center stripes removed from the helmet, going with a solid color?

 

[MikefromOH]

I can only speak for myself but I like stripes down a helmet.

 

[Win4us]

I hear ya, just think a more solid colored helmet would work. The pic’s concept is kinda nice tho

 

[Boone]

That looks like a Pop Warner helmet lol

 

[Win4us]

You’re a Pop Warner helmet!

 

[MikefromOH]

Guess Boone isn't a fan.

I am with the name and script. Reminds me of a better time. Which is why I highly doubt they'll use it

 

[Primus Porcus]

I love that rendering fwiw.

It's about as 'connected' as we're going to get.

Here you go ST… It’s taking place in the perking lot. Look for the porta-potties. Promises to be a Hog of a time.

 

[Win4us]

the fans could wear masks like these…

I mean, regardless of what the name ends up being, after 2 years I expect something more exciting and dynamic than a script name. There are worse possibilities than 'Hogs'. Couple reasons it's not my preference... Yes - it is a part of our history, but it was a specialty unit name that made sense for that unit - the O Line. I'm not sure it makes sense as a team name? Secondly - hogs are mostly known for one thing - getting slaughtered. If they choose it, you'd better get used to hearing it ad nauseam for the rest of your lives. And as I've said more than once - if we waited 2 years for 'Hogs' - that alone infuriates me. If they go that route, I'll survive. Having a really great logo would help, and that ain't it.

And there's nothing ferocious about a 'hog' - it's fat, pink, and doesn't even have tusks (those are boars or warthogs).

Again... not great

A hungry hog will eat you if given the chance.

We are all hungry hogs.

I’m still stubbornly sticking with the Warthogs.

They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. ... Fact of the matter is, pigs can eat almost anything they can chew.
