It is time for the NSFL to expand their Canadian influence by introducing the Toronto Thunderbirds. The Thunderbird is a powerful being in Native American culture and mythology, especially the Algonquian nation, which held territory in current day eastern Canada. “They delight in fighting and deeds of greatness.” What else could you possibly need? It is said that these commanding creatures create thunder simply by flapping their wings. On the gridiron, the Thunderbirds would rule with speed absolute, dominating teams with their aerial superiority. Thunderbird Stadium (working title) would be characterized by flashes of lightning and booms of thunder. Not ones to shy away from a fight, the Thunderbird defense will pride itself on winning the battles in the trenches through sheer power and agility. The teams’ colors would be a bright yellow with some red and deep blue accents.
Every attempt will be made to fully respect this sacred image and incorporate many cultural teachings into the gameday experience for fans and members of the community. This will be a partnership in representing the ideals of the Thunderbird, and all it represents, with the pride and reverence it deserves. Toronto is a beautiful city full of diversity and would be the perfect host for the NSFL’s newest members. Everyone, welcome The Toronto Thunderbirds!
