Please tell us that there are other options for names. Sure, the explanations that are listed beside each name on the finals list does TRY to pay homage to Amarillo, but good grief.... Names need to be catchy, easy to repeat for cheering for the team, and NOT embarrassing. Ridiculous. By the over 5,500 signatures and comments on this petition, the Amarillo Professional Baseball committee needs to rethink their top five... throw those out and start with the other 2,995 options.

I promise I will NEVER purchase/wear any merchandise with any of these names on it!!! Why not Amarillo Winds or Amarillo Atoms or Amarillo Twisters?

We are building a first class facility but putting a ridiculous and embarrassing name on the team. We need a name with class like San Antonio did when it named the Missions.

Those names are the most pathetic names ever! If that's the best this city can come up with, then just cancel the whole baseball thing. I'll never goto a game or buy merchandise for a team with any of those names. Absolutely ridiculous!

Come on, I don't live there anymore but I don't think you really want Amarillo known by any of those names. Maybe this is a joke, put forth by the "newspaper" the Onion??!??

I’m highly offended by these 5 names! Doesn’t represent Amarillo at all! Go back to the drawing board please!

Please pick some better names. I don't have a problem with silly but the 5 listed are horrible. Please don't make Amarillo an bigger embarrassment than it already is. This team is supposed to help make Amarillo boom and a stupid name could kill all of that hope.

I’m sure our area can cup up with better, competitive sounding team names that still display the heritage of Amarillo and the panhandle.
