AA Springfield New Name

[cardsfantx]

The AA Springfield Cardinals are now…

The Ozarks Springbirds??

Like what the [expletive]?

Not Ozark; Ozarks…

And what is a springbird?

[Radbird]

Yeah, the plural just doesn’t work here.

Ozark Daredevils maybe?

Their team song could be If You Want To Get To Heaven.

This is what happens when you let your focus group run circles around you.

[Popeye_Card]

Doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. I'm kinda following the logic with the Springbirds. Ozark Springbirds may have been OK. The double plural is just...oof.

[dmarx114]

Not that I care, but it's crazy to me that someone thought this was a good idea.

[Donnie Ebert]

They should make their mascot a giant spring, something like this:

Someone clearly said, "Let's choose a name that noooooo one else has."

[heyzeus]

This is a bad name. Why did you do this.

[Slider]

I kind of like spring birds.

Ozarks is what the region is called. Ozark is a town right next to Springfield, calling it Ozark would be confusing the region to the town. I get it, but double plural is rough.

[Birds67]

Yeah, the plural just doesn’t work here.

Ozark Daredevils maybe?

Their team song could be If You Want To Get To Heaven.

Bingo. Don't really understand the name change.
