Really? This is the best this town can come up with? We already have been made a national joke in the media for the antics of our “leaders.” Now this. SMH. What about Dust Devils. My friend submitted Tornadoes.
Ahhh but I can hear it now. Go Sod Poodles! Beat ‘em Jerky. Yeah, no.

If I can recall correctly, the criteria was for a name that reflected the town's image. The general manager never mentioned any thing about it being kid friendly,which I have no problem with, but I don't see how any of these names reflect the city of Amarillo. Sod Poodles??

These names are horrid. Let's try again and get someone on the panel familiar with Amarillo tastes.

These name choices show that they think we are all a bunch of hicks. I would not buy merchandise with these names. Horrible 1 thru 5.

Have some self-respect AMA. Maybe ask for some help from CSAW at WT. They know the region and won't charge for the marketing.

Yes, these names are stupid and ignominious. Don’t end up like the poor New Orleans baseball team.

These are the most ridiculous choices I can imagine. The panel that selected these should be replaced too!

These names are ridiculous! How about The Sixty-Sixers, The High Plainers, The Amarillo A's, even The Prairie Dogs is better than Sod Poodles.

If this is a PR play? Kudos, however, I can't believe these were the best names submitted. Reminds me of the debacle when the city was naming the former Sox. Now that you have our attention, let's come up with our real baseball team name - one to be proud of.
