As much as I hate to admit it Loren, we are currently the home of the Browns, as the team came back in 1999 and their god-ugly stadium has been an eye-sore on our lake front ever since.

Can the Chickasaw Chupacabras (Or some such alliteration) be far off?

Of course, if you want to be pedantic you could argue that the true full name is “South Bay Bessie”. It came from a name the monster contest in the 80s to promote tourism.

I think it was just the Lake Erie Monster for quite a long time before that.

Cool, always wanted a jersey from the Lowell Lock Monsters, but never got one. I like the Lake Erie Monsters better!

I always thought the Philadelphia Philies baseball team sounded like a bunch of female horses. Shouldn’t they be called the Stallions?

The logos are really cool for most of the cryptid teams. I like Colorado’s footprint, but being a Wings fan, I can’t really own any merchandise from “that” team. Cool logo though!

Well whatever is seen in the great lakes has allegedly been reported to tear deer and mules apart, so I’d give them the benefit of the doubt.

Even though they don’t play like they’re around, the Cleveland Browns are still a team in the N.F.L. The first time I heard the name Bessie, was in Cryptozoology A-Z. A teenager from Cleveland in the 1980’s, we referred to L.E.M. or the Lake Erie Monster.
Mongolian Death Worms would be a cool name for a team.

They should start a team in Mongolia just so they can name it “The Mongolian Death Worms”. THAT would be a cool team name.
