Most team names are based on the surroundings.
Dodgers is because of the New York Trolley Dodgers. 49ers is because of the Gold Rush starting in 1849. Lakers was originally in Minnesota, where there are a lot of lakes. Cowboys is because of the Texas Cowboy folk stories. Astros because of NASA. Sharks because of the red triangle where sharks are very common. Oilers because of the oil rich land of northern Alberta. Patriots because of New England's involvement in the revolution. Brewers because Wisconsin produces a lot of breweries. Vikings because of rich Norwegian history. Blackhawks because of former Native tribes near Chicago. Padres, because San Diego has a lot of Mexicans. Diamondbacks, since snakes are popular in the desert. Rockies because Colorado is... Well...
I can go on and on and on. |
