Logo 1- Portland Otters

Portland is as market that deserves to have football. The Trailblazers, Timbers and both Oregon colleges all have rabid fans and there’s no reason why an AAF team couldn’t work there. As for the name Otters, the animal is not used in any other major sport and they are native to Oregon.

Logo 2 - Pittsburgh Hardhats

We all know how passionate Steeler fans are so why not give the Steel City a spring team to? If Seattle and Tampa can have teams here, so can Pittsburgh. As for the name Hardhats, it’s a tribute to the hard working folks in the steel mills who wear Hardhats lol.

I'm definitely leaning towards Portland and Pittsburgh for both of those logos, but would you think of Vancouver instead of Portland?  What would you name a team with that logo from Vancouver?  Or how about San Francisco?

And how about the Pittsburgh Power for the bottom logo?

For any of you following my league over on the website, I am currently half way through the 2021 AAF season.  We will be looking to expand again in the near future but I want to give you guys the opportunity to name the future teams.

I need a team name, location and short explanation for your selection for these two logos.  Thank you guys.

With the Hawks being the bridesmaid so many times I really want to root for them but I just can’t with them being a poor man’s version of the Baltimore Ravens. I’m a Cincinnati Bengals fan

Am I missing something?  This league has been around since the 1920s but all the championships have been won by practically two teams ?

Thanks for all the suggestions, and all of these have been added to my board.  The league is currently at 20 teams now that I added Cleveland, Philadelphia, Columbus and Tampa for 2019 and it has the potential of getting up to 30 or so teams, so there is plenty of opportunities for expansion to come and I'm thinking they'll be some relocations also once Covid hits in 2020.

Hope you guys catch up on the first three seasons of the league and continue to give me your thoughts on anything and everything to do with my league.  You can either comment here or on the website itself.  Thanks and I appreciate the feedback guys.

The website has been launched. I'm no website designer, and it looks alot better on the laptop compared to the phone but it'll do.  I've been working on this material off and on for a few months so I feel at least prepared to get your guy's thoughts and feedback.  I missed that part way too much.

I had the league get created in 2015 and kickoff in 2016.  I have currently completed two years worth of seasons and the league is sitting in January 2018 getting ready for season #3.
