j55buff Posts: 17	bonmot, I think the US Rugby team is known as the Eagles. I think Eagles would be a great name. I agree that referring to our team as the USMNT just doesn't do it. The Minute Men would be good - it would tie into Uncle Sams Army well, but the way other teams have scored on us we may not want that. The Liberty would be OK as it reflects the concept of freedom. I would like to see a list of potential names and have the fans choose.
