I thought it was already that way.

Our mascot would be a cartoonish Jim Black and our logo would be Mike Easley crashing a NASCAR.

"Carolina Flyers"


There used to be a small semi-pro soccer team called the Raleigh Flyers and I've always liked the name.

I think people would be surprised. Charlotte would do better than Miami does.

Charlotte is bigger city-wise than Kansas City or St. Louis and that is 2 teams in the same state.

I seriously like the idea of bringing back the old Carolina Cougars in Charlotte so all 3 can be cat names.

It wouldn't be a regional team, it'd be city based. Baseball is a city based sport.

It'd be in Charlotte. Hopefully they'd name it the Charlotte Flight.

No one outside of NC knows what Greensboro is, they wouldn't get the team. The same goes for Raleigh.

"Charlotte Flight cancelled Devil Rays"

I've always suggested that they just make the Durham Bulls a Major League franchise. It has recognition and history behind it. Upgrade the stadium and I'm sure the RDU market can sustain it. Hey, we sustained a hockey franchise that everyone thought would fail....

greensboro almost had the minnisota twins, but the taxpayers of guilford county voted it down. It was a big deal. property tax would have gone up or something like that so we voted it down which was totally bull shit

there won't be an expansion team

and no minor league team has been turned into a major league team in eons

the only chance would be if the marlins moved here

and that's not going to happen

I like the idea of the Bulls becoming a MLB team. Otherwise you be fucking lying to yourself if you think the Bulls would allow a team to be set up in their backyard. ie Raleigh or RTP. Hell even Gboro is too close for MLB rules prohibiting Minor league teams and Majors of proximity.

Otherwise if we were to get one I like Flight or Flyers. Its a new old lame sounding name that MLB teams, esp. expansion ones, are found of. Example: Rockies. Devil Rays. Metropolitians.

What about the Carolina Admirials. We be even more patriotic than DC!
