Rumors are flying about where the new expansion teams are going to be. I have multiple sources telling me that one of the top locations for the new team is Gotham City. I know, I know, Bane showed up and destroyed the previous teams stadium, but now there's an open spot! With a little bit of TLC, the stadium can be up and running in no time! Word has been that they are going to be called the Gotham City Knights. They will wear black and blue uniforms and their mascot will ride in on a black stallion when the players enter the stadium. Also, the stadium will be called the Asylum, which may sound insensitive, but could easily be changed if need be. This stadium will have top level security at all times and will also have a VIP Box Seat with Perch for the fearless Batman to sit on during the games. I don't foresee anything bad happening to this stadium unless movie cameras and Christian Bale show up. Then we're screwed. But there's always a risk in investments! I think the Joker is locked up so he shouldn't be an issue for the team. I mean, it isn't Bane am I right?

There are a lot of ideas that come to mind for Washington, D.C., including patriotic ideas like the Independence, the Americans, and the Eagles, and there are always boring ideas like the Senators and the Presidents. The aforementioned boring ideas are too boring, but the Eagles, Americans, and Independence are too redundant with the Liberty, especially since the DC team would be in the same conference. There are a lot of other cliche ideas but for this PT I'm going to refer to DC's flag. The flag has three stars on it, which definitely mean something although I can't remember what it is. And DC, the capital of my country, does not have a star on the nation's flag. Because of DC's ties to stars, I propose the Washington, D.C. Stars as one of the expansion teams. Their logo would be some sort of fancy star (like the Cowboys but better) and their helmet would be solid red with two diagonal red stripes going up and down the sides. I know the color scheme is similar to the Yeti, but nobody likes the Yeti. Plus, the Stars' accent color would be a dark maroon, not gold. The pants would also be red, but the darker red, with two white stripes running down it. The away uniforms would be white, and the spicy home uniforms would be red (worn with white pants, of course).Congratulations, you just plagiarized my idea!

But we don’t know where to yet. You get to Create a franchise in a city of your choosing. Describe this new team. Come up with a mascot, color scheme, or maybe name the stadium. Tell why you chose this town. Have fun with it. Franchise Name: Cthulhu Logo: City: Redondo Beach Mascot: Tulu Lovecraft Color Scheme: Blue / Black / Grey Stadium: Waller Football Stadium, was seized by force and renamed THE DEEP Here we have my new proposal for a new franchise: the Redondo Beach Cthulhu. I chose the name first as I honestly just think it would be a badass name for a football franchise. That lead me to look into various coastal California cities for the Cthulhu's new home and settled in on Redondo Beach. I'm hoping that the upscale beach town will attract free agents and many high spending fans. Plus it is near the ocean if the real Cthulhu wants to actually watch some games. Our franchise plans to seize the local high school Waller Football Stadium, rebuild it to hold more fans, and rebrand the entire stadium merely "THE DEEP." Our new mascot, Tulu Lovecraft, will be going through the aisles in the stands entertaining the children and pumping up the adults with guttural calls and shaking his face tentacles. He also has free reign to beat up any opposing fans who get too rowdy in THE DEEP, if you think Gritty is wild wait until you see what we let ol Lovecraft get into on gameday. We also have an exclusive sponsorship with Kraken rum, so hopefully that attracts some good players as well. I'm guessing eventually we will need to move into a bigger space, but for now the area will suit an expansion team pretty well.

It was brought to my attention that I, for whatever reason, should create the newest expansion team for the NSFL starting in season 16. So let's get started. Since other leagues have failed to tap the market that is the UK I thought well why not us.
Introducing the WHITECHAPEL RIPPERS. The Whitechapel Rippers will be located on the east side of London area. Just east of the tower of London near the tobacco docks. The new stadium will house 45,000 seats total designed to create the loudest environment from across the pond. The stadium is ready to be funded by the Queen herself. The queen went on record stating she needs a home football team as soon as yesterday. The Logo will consist of a silhouette of a mustached man wearing a top hat holding a large knife. Primary Color being Gray, secondary color red, and alternate color black. I believe the introduction of the Whitechapel Rippers would help elevate the NSFL from a North American juggernaut into a world wide house hold name. Tapping into international waters can be a source of income to the league. Doing so would bring an influx of money which can be turned into more profits for owners all the way down to the players. 212 words

My proposal for the next round of NSFL expansion is the Charleston Loggerheads. The current geography of the NSFL makes Charleston an ideal location for a new team - the Southeast is one of the hotbeds of American football culture, and adding a second team located far enough from New Orleans will help the league continue to capture this market. Despite large college football fanbases for the South Carolina Gamecocks and the Clemson Tigers, SC is not home to any major professional sports teams and the Loggerheads will have plenty of local support. Charleston is located on the Atlantic coast and has long been defined by its proximity to the ocean. Since its history as a major port town has manifested in some unsavory ways (i.e. the largest port for the slave trade, the place where the Civil War began), it would probably be best to downplay any military or economic connotations. Instead, I propose we focus on the vibrant oceanic ecosystem. The loggerhead sea turtle is the state reptile of South Carolina and the South Carolina Aquarium is known for its dedication to loggerhead research and conservation, making it an ideal symbol for the state's first major professional team. Loggerhead sea turtles are cool, unique mascots that perfectly straddle the ever-elusive line between tough-sounding and familly-friendly that will make the team extremely marketable. |
