Of all the names that have been floating around, I'd go with Spiders. There is some historical significance, and I think fantastic logo potential.

Perhaps that'll be another poll later, but this was much more just feeling out the fanbase. We had to rank how important current things were, such as team colors, the Block C, the red alternate home jerseys, etc.

There was space for us to elaborate, which I shared my hopes they avoid rocknroll.

For those in the thread who hasn't been following, here is a pretty complete list of names I've heard mentioned:

Spiders
Blue Sox
Naps
Guardians
Buzzards
Tribe
Crows
Cuyahogas
Unions
Blues
Rockers
Fellers

Bob Feller was a total asshole when I met him. I bet that dude has some serious cancellable offenses in his past. Fellers would be worse than Indians.

Wow those name choices are atrocious sucks to be a CLE fan. If I had to choose I think Cleveland Tribe makes the most sense...closest thing to Indians, wouldn't have to change the overall look and feel of the uniforms or stadium all that much. Blue Sox would be the dumbest shit ever.

I would say thats the least likely of all of them, but I wanted to be thorough.

If you’re getting rid of Indians you gotta get all the way away from it. Tribe would just be a sidestep.

And Blue Sox makes exactly the same amount of sense as White Sox and Red Sox.
