    I was personally going to vote for Toronto Flying Dragons, but after a loss to the Clippers the news headline in the news paper would read "Dragons get wings clipped in L.A.", so that won't work either.

        Yeah, but do you really want to the words "Toronto Mammoths' Defense goes extinct" on the front page of the sports section after every loss?
        They do this with "Raptors" already. And hey, at least Mammoths are more RECENTLY extinct than dinosaurs. We'd be slowly moving up the extinction ladder. Next stop: Toronto Dodos.

          Dodos would be quite appropriate for the team these days.

            I like Raptors. Who cares if we were named during the Jurassic Park craze, we're named after a fucking dinosaur. That's badass.


            Try to imagine yourself in the Cretaceous Period. You get your first look at this "six foot turkey" as you enter a clearing. He moves like a bird, lightly, bobbing his head. And you keep still because you think that maybe his visual acuity is based on movement like T-Rex – he'll lose you if you don't move. But no, not Velociraptor. You stare at him, and he just stares right back. And that's when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side, from the other two raptors you didn't even know were there. Because Velociraptor's a pack hunter, you see, he uses coordinated attack patterns and he is out in force today. And he slashes at you with this – a six-inch retractable claw, like a razor, on the middle toe. He doesn't bother to bite your jugular like a lion, oh no … he slashes at you here [makes slashing motions below the child's chest] or here … [above the groin] or maybe across the belly, spilling your intestines. The point is … you are alive when they start to eat you. So you know … try to show a little respect.

              Raptors get de-clawed in Portland. Damn, that won't work either.

                      I agree. And all that other stuff was cool too I guess.

                        Damn. You make some solid points. We need to get you in MLSE's marketing department.

                              Thanks for making me laugh out loud.

                              There's nothing wrong with the Raptors for a team name. I was in Memphis once and didn't see a Grizzly walking by. And the Utah Jazz. Enough said.
