Barracudas. Simply because the name was made awesome by 'Legends of the Hidden Temple'.

Birmingham Vulcans perhaps? It sounds weird but there is a park in Birmingham with this huge statue or something called the Vulcan. So you know, it has something to do with the city. Crimson and white could work for that. Don't copy Alabama though, you want some differentiation from the college team.

Funny you should mention that because the Birmingham Vulcans were actually a team in the WFL in 1975. www.wfl1974.com/I considered using them as a nickname in the poll but I don't really know what the hell a vulcan is though I'm pretty sure it's volcano in Spanish.

For the sake of an idea of how a couple of these teams might look (minus the nifty logos), I got some pictures from maddenteams.com Crimson Storm Barracudas Bulldogs Predators Redfish Foxhounds Mudcats

Dude, looking at these jerseys makes me want to go buy Madden 2008 for PC. Anybody know a price on it? Also, how easy is it too do those logos and stuff?
Oh, and Loki what system you playing this on?

It's $40 at Best Buy. Not sure how to do the logos and stuff but I'd imagine it's not too impossible. I'm gonna be playing on X-Box 360. This is going to be part of my Shannon Kennedy story. Not sure if Shannon will wind up on this team but I'll keep you updated. I just felt like a team needs to relocate for whatever reason.
