Say hello to the IronPigs

[Derwood]

The Phillies new AAA team (for 2008) will be named the IronPigs. God I love minor league baseball team names.

unless the logo is a complete disaster, i think i'm going to have to do the same. Definitely a great name.

the logo has not yet been unveiled

Might as well put this here: the Boise Hawks will keep their name but change their logo.

(AP) ALLENTOWN, PA. The Lehigh Valley’s new minor league baseball team has some competition for their choice of the name IronPigs.

 

The Texas-based Iron Pigs Motorcycle Club told the team this week that it holds a trademark on its name and plans to take action to force the baseball team to change.

 

 

That is such a terrible name to fight over

some picture

 

Do we really need a sig that's 3469.52 KB, especially considering the image quality is very poor? I have a 5MB downstream -- I pity the fools who have less.

Yes, but they got re-named into the Swing of the Quad Cities a couple of years ago, after they made some stadium improvements. It's a very strange logo - a saxaphone with a ball shooting out of it. They are currently the Cardinal affiliate for the Midwest League.
