Oh man, Ottawa has to have some of the WORST sports team identities ever. Only the Senators have any style.
They've got the SkyHawks - originally the Tomahawks but changed after all of five hours for obvious politically-correct reasons:
And recently they unveiled the *sigh* RedBlacks as their new CFL team:
And now we have the Ottawa Fury:
Don't get me wrong, I like my logos to be relatively minimalistic, but a black shield with a simple flame design just doesn't cut it.

Did the USA , of all countries, just fix soccer? - C. Ronaldo, May 27th commenting on the FBI-led investigations into fraud and corruption throughout FIFA.
^Yeah, I don't quite see what a red flame has to do with "Fury".
As for the other team names - maybe I'm the only one, but I actually don't mind the name "RedBlacks". For me, it's a tribute to the CFLs rugby roots (whether it's meant to be that or not). As for changing the name Tomahawks to Skyhawks - PC run amok as far as I'm concerned.
Was hoping the CFL team would adopt The Filibusters.
Yeah, that's a great name for your team. Might as well call them the "Ottawa politicians"
Would the Ottawa Capitals be more to your liking
What, a discussion of ridiculous Ottawa team names with no reference to the Gee-Gees?

I like RedBlacks, too. And I agree Tomahawks is a lot better than Skyhawks and I won season tickets to the World Basketball League team in Hamilton in the early 90s in a name the team contest with... SkyHawks
political correctness to the extreme annoys the crap out of me. As long as you don`t go out of your way to be offensive it`s all good. There`s nowt wrong with Tomahawks. There`s just a bunch of super-sensitive special interest groups who like to complain about everything with their hands out, looking for alms.
Redblacks is stupid. It says `I have no idea what to name this team, I only know what we can`t name it`.
a ha ha heh he hoo.. ha
