I'm very sorry about last night, I just got upset and it just spoiled over on here. But as for our division, Dan O'Mac suggested colonial and I seem to like it. Darknes, Section, what do you think?

Sheesh, didn't think I'd miss so much after like 3 days. Especially tonight.

On the topic of divisions, what about something simple like the West Division? I think Southwest could work too.
I'm more than fine with either of those options, but I'm leaning a bit more towards the Southwest.

I'm cool with going 1. southwest, 2. pacific, 3. west unless anybody has any better ideas

3pt, Sevs, and Toad, I'm thinking Midwest most accurately defines our division alignment. I was originally thinking Great Lakes but that doesn't really include Louisville or Indiana. Having looked it up, I really like the primary nickname for the midwest region, the Heartland Division. What do y'all think?

I'm good with whatever you guys want to put forward. Heartland Division works for me.

2 questions: Would you like them sent to the league Gmail or PM on here

Like the NHL has done this season, can we give the division a sponsor?

You can just PM me your final names.

And yes we can do sponsors. Send over your corporate sponsor at the same time.

And for a corporate sponsor, how about State Farm? That feels fairly midwest to me, plus headquartered in Illinois.

Sevs, Toad?

Jam, Enigma, Bubba

Would you all be happy with going with the Central Division, with the Tornado Alley Division being a nickname for the division? Any ideas for sponsors? I'm game for anything.

I'm good with Central Division. If you guys want to sell the naming rights to our division, I'm not going to offer any suggestions.

Central is not my first choice. (I'd prefer Trans-Mississippi [historic name for the region just beyond the Mississippi] or Middle [because Middle Coast best coast]. However, if yinz are uncomfortable with either of those names, I am fine with Central Division. I think that we could get away without a corporate sponsorship for the division.
