| When I first applied for a team I scrolled down the list to find a team in a less favourable financial situation. Thought I'd make it a little more interesting. For some reason, the application didn't fire, so I tried again. This time the top team on the list was the Greater Northshire Dinosaurs. Northshire sounded Tolkienian, and Dinosaurs seemed close to my favourite basketball team - the Raptors. I took that as a sign and applied for the team. The new Raptors logo looks cool, but I've become pretty attached to my stampeding green reptile. Don't think I can change.  |

| Not to mention we kind of associate you with the big green lizard. Changing would only throw the board into a state of uncontrollable excitement. |

| Well with new logos I can actually change my team name to resemble the amateur team I play in - Warsaw Phoenixes. I just need Steve to add Warsaw to the town list. Not the one I live in, the one in Indiana will do  |

| What is the appropriate plural of Phoenix? Is it really the Phoenixes? I read online that there was no plural form because there was only the one Phoenix in Greek mythology. Steve |

| There is only one Phoenix, so it is more of a proper name. If the term were to be a generic word, it would have to end in ices, due to the ix ending... so Phoenices if anything... but there is no correct pluralization. On a semi-related note, I noticed "octopuses"... Shouldn't that be octopi? Updated Wednesday, October 7 2015 @ 4:01:31 pm PDT |

| I'm no native speaker, but google helps: Noun phoenix (plural phoenix or phoenixes or phoenices) But for "phoenices" it says latin. Updated Wednesday, October 7 2015 @ 10:58:55 pm PDT |
