Default Gwinnett Braves new name finalists

http://www.baseballamerica.com/busin...-for-new-name/

Would not mind if they became the Hush Puppies or Sweet Teas. I picture a giant Kool-Aid Man-like pitcher of tea as a mascot running through walls and being reckless if the latter is chosen.

I like the funky minor league team names. So much better than when they just use the parent name. Personally I like the Sweet Teas

These are pretty cool. I'd vote for the Sweet Teas or Hush Puppies. Braves is boring

Those are awful.

What is it with the minor leagues, making awful names for teams?
