JDLefebvre Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Cardinals use to be the Phoenix Cardinals. Marlins use to be the Florida Marlins. One did it to broaden their fan base and one to closer represent the city they are located (I think). Do you think, or wish any other teams would make a change in any way? Or some you would just like to see... Maybe the Boston Patriots? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DontTazeMeBro Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 My guess is when they do it it’s a rebranding attempt. And the Patriots have no reason to do that Jacksonville changing to Duval would be pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, the city of LA wasn't going to bend over backwards for a stadium, but the team didn't have any real desire to leave such a huge market, so they went 1 county over and tried to pit them against each other. It worked, sadly, so they tweaked the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
