So when will we find out what the team name for the new Cleveland team will be? I am not in the Cleveland area right now and was wondering if anyone has seen anything along the lines of voting on a name. Latest thing I found was on Nov 2nd and it just stated the schedule for the season.

They already have a name but i'm drawing a blank right now. I can't think of it for the life of me.

Gladiators might be it.

Yea they were the Las Vegas Gladiators but it seems to me that all signs are pointing to a new name and new colors. The Arena website just lists them as Cleveland AFL.

I've heard that too. Nothing official though...


Joe Thomas made Justin Timberlake change his name. He didn't want wusses to have the same initials...

I've heard Bulldogs too, but nothing official yet. Can always try emailing the Tony Rizzo show, as he has Bernie on Mondays and Fridays, and Bernie has tended to let things slip on that show.

They had Bernie on WMJI the other morning..... The official name will be unchanged at this point (Gladiators) as we are getting another city's team, but 'Bulldogs' has been suggested as a new name and they are still deciding whether or not to change it.


Browns is the Browns

... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

Hope they do better in Cleveland than here! They sucked in Vegas!

I know...I'd like to get season tickets, but might go game-to-game this first year, especially if they suck so bad. Looking at the $65/seat range, which is more than I pay for my Browns tickets! (Gotta be low for arena ball)

They didnt have a fan base here in vegas tho.
Maybe a change of scenery will help the team
They played at the Orliens(spelling) here and for $40.00 you could sit any place.
