Branding and marketing is very important. If you had a football team, what would you name it?

The Boston Clams?
The Anchorage Anchors?
The Miami (Ohio) Disappointments?
The Pleasant Hill Goons?

I do not wear this mask to protect me. I wear it to protect you from me.

There are so many teams you could bring back but that feels like cheating to me. Going with a fresh identity...?

Has there been a Memphis Horns yet? Logo would be a trumpet with a "M" within the design.

You could troll Dan Snyder with a Native American themed team called the Washington Indigenous Nations, with The Nations as the nickname. Not that he would care.

I remember playing whatever the newest version of Madden was like 7 or 8 years ago and the first time I dipped my toes into franchise mode the AI immediately moved the Raiders to Dublin of all places

I had one in Madden years ago where the Bengals moved and renamed twice, once to be the San Antonio Gunslingers, then again like 5~ years later to become the Toronto Huskies.

I think the same franchise mode had the Texans move to become the Memphis Hounds, so I manually moved the Titans back to Houston as the reborn Oilers.

Sometimes Madden was still fun.

THE HELL IS WITH THIS ASS!?





I've played a ton of franchise mode in Madden and only saw a computer team relocate once. The Vikings spent six or seven years as the worst team in the league and it wasn't even close. IIRC their best year in that span was 4-12. They then moved to Boston and became the Stallions. It paid off immediately when they started routinely putting up 6-8 win seasons instead.

Other than that I've relocated the or renamed a few teams. I think my favorite might be changing a moribund Chargers franchise to the Mexico City Bats.

i always appreciated that in Madden '05 they let you move and rename the team and one of the preprogrammed ones that Al Michaels would say was "The Mummies."

I wonder if that is the only recorded instance we have of Al Michaels talking about mummies.

Find someone who values you like Rick Spielman values 7th round picks.



The North Dakota Oil Men, based in Fargo.

No roof stadium so half of the games played will be -20 with a 30 mile per hour wind.

Kickers will retire when drafted by this team.

Also as per UND tradition (at least when I went there), 32 oz beers are 6 dollars.
