This describes one part of a suit tha's going on in baseball. The angels in California want to use "Los Angeles" in their name, although they play in Anaheim. After hearing about this from my brother, I made up some other such strange names designed to confuse people who didn't understand the geography of the areas. Here are some ideas for team names:
"San Diego Giants of San Francisco" This will confuse the heck out of some people. "San francisco" and "San Diego" are pretty commonly known city names, are known to be in california, and both have "San" in the similar sounding names, so people who don't know where the cities are will have the heck confused out of them trying to figure out what are to go to.
"Phoenix Suns of Flagstaff" (Right now the Suns are a basketball team in Phoenix). Similar idea to the one above.
"The Roswell UFO's" Now, to confuse people, have them play in Roswell, Georgia.
Any others?
