In exploring possible options for expansion teams and locations, the biggest things to consider are the population of the fanbase and the epic nature of the name. For me, it's also an added plus to have an alliteration in the name "Nashville Nasties" is so much better than "Nashville Meanies" for example.
As I thought about this, I asked my wife who is from Buffalo where we would have a team and she just looked at me...of course! Buffalo! Buffalo football fans are absolutely wild, tailgating for DAYS before big games and staying insanely loyal to their team no matter what, which is an extremely important quality when it comes to being fans of a startup team - wins are certainly not guaranteed.
When I asked my wife what the mascot should be, she replied right away, "Buffalo!" At first I thought no way, but the longer I thought about it the more I loved it...And while technically Buffalo Buffalo is repetition more so than alliteration, the goofiness of it all outweighs the questionable alliteration. But let's be real, how fun is that to say and the local fanbase will be ALL about it.
So, for my submission for expansion, break out the beers, brats, and tailgates, and give it up for our new favorite team...the Buffalo Buffalo!
