My thoughts: Energy is a crappy name. That's what they name Arena League and WNBA teams. Thunder and Wind aren't much better.

my thoughts exactly as i read the list. wind is lame but a very accurate, descriptive name. marshalls would be a little weird but okay. bison is...not....really....a sports name...barons probably gets my vote out of these. how 'bout something OK has a lot of....OK city scorpions?
