GOOD kilted/Scottish team nicknames?

[MacWage]

In a rather ODD project, I am trying to think of a series of Scottish themed sports team names:

Scots (Baseball)

Dirks

Highlanders (was an actual New York baseball team)

Kilted Rabble (Rugby or Arena Football)

Mainly, I need:

Baseball
American Football
Hockey
Basketball
Euro-Football/Soccer
Rugby
Arena Football

Plus any other odd sports that may be found in a large city.

Some Arena/Stadium/Park names:

CaledonGlen (Baseball)
Highland Coloseum (Basketball/Hockey/Arena football)
Celt Stadium (Football/Soccer)

Any other Ideas?


I'm curious to hear some really good ideas!!!!

Minnesota had an old ABA basketball team in the late 60s

"Pipers"

[Kilted KT]

"Ladies from hell"

works for any sport.

[Jerry]

The "Fighting Scots", for American football. "Fighting Irish" seems to have worked pretty well for a small American Universirt called Notre Dame.

[Wompet]

The Fighting Scots are the men's sports teams at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania. The women's teams are the Lady Scots.

I've got two T-shirts devoted to the Belfast Brawlers (Rugby) and the Dublin Hooligans (soccer).

We use to have a soccer team called the "Tampa Bay Rowdies"

I loved the team slogan:

"The Rowdies are......a kick in the grass"

Ironcally/Interestingly, my father (a graphic designer) designed THAT VERY team's logo many, many moons ago!!!!

(He also designed the circle Atanta Hawks logo and the Atlanta Flames hockey logos-> which were BOTH owned by the same man when they began playing in the city)

Strange that you'd mention them SPECIFICALLY!!!
