Re: Team Name Choices

What in the world is the nickname Dawnland?

Re: Team Name Choices

comes from the wabanaki tribe, major tribe in area, "used to describe the area they lived". idea is Boston was moving from the "indians" nickname but still working with tribes in the area to have a meaningful name, not the biggest fan of dawnland, i like dawn better but unique and wanted to include it.

Re: Team Name Choices

Just confused me as a name. Sounds like one of those 1880/90's baseball teams. The Boston Dawnlands has that ring.
