Somehow the team name "Omaha Storm Chasers" allegedly won a fan vote, even though everyone on earth thinks it's a completely retarded name for a baseball team. And their logo looks strikingly similar to that of the San Diego Chargers.

I don't think it looks like the chargers logo at all. But okay.

Seriously? It's the same colors, the same font, and has lightning bolts in it.

Wow, I can understand distancing themselves from the Royals name right now, but there was nothing better out there? Hell of a marketing group they hired.

Everytime a team chooses its name based on "fan vote," something really terrible happens. I don't trust this "fan vote" line one bit.

Last I checked on the Facebook page, there were 68 comments on this news. 67 of them were negative. I don't understand how fans could possibly have voted for such a queer name.

It's Stormy, the Storm Chaser mascot.

It appears to be an anthropomorphic green raisin with a tornado for a proboscis, dressed in baseball regalia, wearing a weather vane for a hat.

The only thing worse than being sodomized by a 400 lbs man is being sodomized by that thing.

That probably tells you that the Co. spent tons of cash on the name, then once they tested it, found out it was garbage and everyone hated it... so they spin it as being fan friendly and claim fans wanted it.

I thought it looked more like their mentally retarded cousin, Leotardo.

Least its better than the last time they tried it. Remember the Omaha Golden Spikes.

Yes, I do, that was only a little over a decade ago, but it didn't bother me as much. Either way, the name change didn't work then, I don't know what makes them think it's a good idea this time around.

Heh. It was actualy the Golden Spike. Everyone kept calling it the Golden Spikes...and it was a stupid ass name.

The problem is, there is never a name that anyone will like, so they throw this at the wall and hope it sticks. I didn't even know they were renaming the team. I don't know, I mean what would you call it?

Here is the article from the Weird Herald:

http://www.omaha.com/article/20101115/NEWS01/101119800#royals-become-the-storm-chasers

Apparently, the deal is that a lot of minor league teams are doing this, coming up with completely off the wall names and going down this new marketing road I guess...so I guess this is what the Omaha Royals\Storm Chasers should be doing...I guess...

How could you even joke about that? Don't you realize that somebody might wander into ChiefsPlanet who has a relative who was a sports mascot who WAS sodomized by a 400-lb man and it might cause them distress?

I'm just amazed (and a little disturbed) at how obsessed CP seems to be with sodomy...

A suggestion from a fan on local radio this AM. The Royals should be forced in kind to re-name themselves "Twins Chasers."
