---I agree but the scary thing is, these caps are still better than those old ugly caps, they used to wear. The ICubs have needed to hire a new marketing consultant for some time now. The Daytona Cubs have a nice logo. ---#26 Sweet Swinging Billy Williams (formerly ITex)

I have a novel idea. How about naming them something besides the Cubs? How frigging unoriginal is that? Especially when some of those caps have the walking bear logo on them? WTF? The fun of Minor League teams is the ludicrous nicknames they have.

 

I propose the Iowa Screaming Squirrels.

 

Oh wait, they are already taken:

How about the Iowa Corn Jerkers?

 

The Iowa Flat Landers?

 

The Iowa Nibblets? (individual corn pieces)

 

The Iowa Methanol Producers?

When the White Sox had their AAA team in Des Moines, they were called the Iowa Oaks. Not sure why, oak trees aren't especially prominent in Iowa.

I think it's because Iowa was the AAA team for the Oakland A's before they affiliated with the White Sox, and they just kept the name when switching affiliations.

Another good one would be for somebody to Photoshop an Iowa uniform on a photo of Ty Cobb. :D
