Atlanta Cobblers - Peach cobbler is good and big in the South compared to pies. Cobbler is also someone who fixes shoes. Felt it fit a basketball league because shoes are a big part of the culture. Maybe the most important equipment due to the fact that it lets the players express themselves freely.

Washington Sentinels - Meaning is a soldier or guard whose job is to stand and keep watch, which sums up the role of the district in the USA. Also just sounds cool ig.

After being given great shame by many, I've learned using California Sea Lions was a heiounis act and I plee for mercy. Los Angeles Sea Lions? LA Lions with a Sea Lion theme? Whatever doesn't get me hit. - I hate names claiming states, but this one is intentional. This one is giving a double statement towards the league and San Jose, by saying it is their state and using a play on Lion, the king of all animals. Adding sea to it makes it way more specific to the coastal city.... California Sea Lion is also the actual name of the species.

Vancouver Wanderers - This one is inspired by Vancouver's motto "By sea, land or air we prosper". Wanderer is just a fancy word for traveler, and, knowing they are the only team from Canada, they'll be doing it a lot.

That's all I got in the tank.

Excited for the second half of teams! Compared to the last two sports, this is quite the unique palate of locations.

Hopefully, this isn't too late, and sorry if there are repeats, I wanted to get this out before it was too late so I never double-checked.

Atlanta Reds- Coca-Cola Headquarters are in ATL, and I think the old school name works for Atlanta.

Washington Force- Air Force One, the US President's private jumbo-jet.

Los Angeles Dunes- LA is home to many dunes and sandy beaches.

New Orleans Bullfrogs- Bullfrogs are commonly found in the New Orleans area.

Vancouver Torrent-  Vancouver is known as the city of rain, and torrent is a fierce-sounding synonym.

This aged ... poorly.

 
Your tax dollars at work, fellow American citizens.

As soon as I graduate school, I’m going back to Canada and never getting involved in U.S. politics again. This is insane.

Facts, I wish I'd gone to college in Canada! I like your username BTW.

Regardless of how we feel about anything with the political side of things, I believe the board rules state we should keep the politics out of things.
