I'm from Normal, Illinois. The Normal Guys. And the mascot should be like a Seafoam Green '95 Ford Taurus balancing a basketball on its hood.

Rushmore Rockfaces. That monument is receiving less and less tourist traffic and we could keep folks there and even bring new jobs and revitalize the probably beautiful mount Rushmore countryside

The Trenton Pork Rolls. Celebrate Trenton, the birthplace of Dennis Rodman and breakfast meat/regional delicacy, Pork Roll. If you don't know, pork roll is kind of like Canadian bacon but thicker/more salty, and is really only available in the NJ/NY area, mainly eaten as a breakfast sandwich with egg and cheese. A potential nickname could be The Trenton Pork and Rolls. I am thinking the mascot could be a thick slice of pork roll as a giant face, with arms and legs coming out of it. I am from a neighboring town and this could be huge for Trenton (we used to have the Yankee's minor league team, the Trenton Thunder, but the Yankees moved them to Bridgewater, Connecticut last year).

Saint Paul Blart Ball Hops. Sometimes traffic on 94 sucks and I don’t want to deal with crossing the river to Minneapolis.

The Chargers have left a professional-sports-team-sized hole in San Diego. But Chargers aren't a source of power, they're just a conduit. The Chargers have moved, but the source of their power remains. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you, the San Diego Outlets.

I will tell you from my TurboStart experience; nobody monitors the Twitter account. The old dudes in charge pay attention to Instagram and Facebook, but do not understand Twitter. The Swedish Fish social media guy acted alone. Great show as always kings.

Lexington Briar Jumpers. In college my friends and I made this franchise in NBA2K, with the name based on the mascot for a high school my friend grew up near. Briar Jumpers are rabbits jumping over hedges. Colors are black, pink, neon green. Colloquially the BJs.

Lost my taste and smell with Diet COVID Zero. A friend playfully asked how it was because it seems like such a wild loss. I nearly broke down describing how depressing it was.
