Going to make a shortlist of the home city suggestions and put up the next poll tomorrow.
Got a good number of Southern cities so far, could use a few more Midwest/West ones.

Mars and Intercourse PA are awesome, but way too small for our needs.

Voted - but I'd have preferred the Watts Happenings.

True, but the meat and potatoes of the marketing could have centred around our mascot - a plushy version of Fred "Rerun" Barry!

Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2018 - *Poll - New Team Home City*
After a very fair and transparent selection process, we have a winner:
Do I even need to put up a poll for the team name, or should I just assume we're going with the Oats?

Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2018 - *Poll - New Team Home City*
I sense a burgeoning rivalry between the Oats and the Fresno Business Horses.
New poll up to choose the team colors. Will collect the most popular ones and then vote on the specific color scheme. After that, will put together some logo/uniform mockups next week.

To be true to the original joke, the team name should be Oates, right? And all team contracts require wearing Oates style mustaches?

Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2018 - *Poll - Team Colors*
I was thinking yellow/gold, the closest color to oats.

Nah, it's Holland. Gotta be orange and something.

Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2018 - *Poll - Team Colors*
I lean no because its "Holland" and the literal word "oats" matches that, but I admitted a few days ago these sorts of things always puzzle me.

Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2018 - *Poll - Team Colors*
Thought about that too, but I think Oats works better because:
1. Like "Holland," it's a homophone rather than the identical spelling
2. "Oats" works as a team name on its own
3. For the Business Horse reference above

California got them fancy golden oats. We got brownish ones here in the heartland.

Bonaire is a Dutch territory, part of the ABC islands. That's their flag.
And the Holland Oats is now the proud owner of the contract of a native of Bonaire, NonlinearFC.
I know this makes zero sense, I'm just throwing it out there.
Oh, maybe we can have Bonaire Night? Special one-off jersey night!?
Sigh. Just like with the album draft, I get overly excited by these things. Apologies in advance.

Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2018 - *Poll - Team Colors*
Looks like Orange and Yellow/Gold are the most popular choices so far. Those of you suggesting those, what are you thinking of as the complementary colors? Will follow with a poll to decide on the final color scheme.

Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2018 - *Poll - Team Colors*
I originally lobbied and voted for Gold/Yellow, but now I'm favoring the Orange. How about Orange and Gold for a color scheme?

I'm a winter and look better in dark colours. Not happy about the colour choices. Not saying that Free Agency is an option, but..

Just to clarify: You and like 3/4ths of people who were on the Sports Frogs last year, will be again this year. The new team is for those who left via free agency, plus a few others from the bench/minors to give them some more playing time.
