I was living in Denver when they got the MLB expansion team that became the Rockies. There was a big debate about the team name being "Denver" or "Colorado".
Paul Brown could have really stuck it to the Browns if he had given our team a name based on "Ohio" instead of "Cincinnati". But I can't think of a cool team name that goes well with "Ohio". Maybe the "Ohio Rivermen".

Cleveland already has the Steamer nickname, but for other reasons

The Cincinnati Bridge, in honor of The Roebling, The Big Mac, The Purple People, and to a lesser extent The Clay Wade Bailey, and WAY lesser the Brent Spence. I thought the plural Bridges would make more sense since there is more than one bridge but I feared people would think they named the team after the actors, Jeff, Beau, Lloyd, and Todd.

You didn't offend me. No apologies are needed.
I offer the post isn't violating the COC because I was responding to an idea in your initial post about not wanting nasty comments. You incorrectly assume I am trying to stir up shit and I also already contributed to the other part of your post topic, a new name for the Bengals, in a separate post.

Here's an original one, Cincinnati Tigers. You could have a tiger logo instead of the much debated "B" logo.
