If the Bills were to move to Toronto...what would be a good name?

My buddy flew down from Toronto for the Monday night game this past week and we were talking about potentially having a team in Toronto...he goes to university with the son of one of the main guys in charge of pushing for relocation. He said it's almost certain it'll happen, 90%, all they need to do is "cross the t's and dot the i's"

So, what should they be called? In all honesty...I know we'll get the "Maple Syrups", or the "Beavers", or what not...

how about...

Toronto Huskies (isn't intimidating, but it fits nicely)

Toronto Towers (CN Tower, lineman=towers, etc.)

Bills won't be leaving Buffalo. They love their bills unlike Houston and the Oilers.

tell that to Browns fans, or Dodgers, or Giants, or Colts, or Northstars, or Nordiques. I'm not saying they won't get another team eventually..but I could see it happening. TO has been pushing for NFL since the 70s and with nearly 7 million in the market (4th largest in North America) supporting it would not be the problem.

I wouldn't be surprised if they stayed, but from what everyone is saying they are as good as gone...my uncle calls me almost weekly to talk about the bills and such...but w/ Goodell being from upstate, he'd push to keep them there...but in the end, $$$ talks.

What proof do you have, at all, that they will stay? Buffalonians would sure like to hear it!

You could of at least gave a name ;-)

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
