Bizarre to say the least. Why don't you just put the last nail in the coffin, and call the team The Tooth Fairies or The Homos !

These names are ridiculous!!! Yet another sign of what this country has become. How shameful!!! Not one of these names have anything to do with baseball. If this is the plan to NOT have fans come to watch baseball making attendance so poor, that the team leaves Binghamton, you will succeed!!

These 6 names are ridiculous and an utter embarrassment. Keep the name the same, or better yet sell the team to someone who won't disgrace it and make it a laughing stock.

My dear Mr. Hughes, With all due respect, have you lost your mind? I was at the very first opening game & along with many friends & family members have gladly & loyally supported the Binghamton Mets franchise. It is beyond my comprehension why you would feel it necessary to embarass our players, our city & us. It is not that I am completely against a name change, (albeit I find nothing wrong with the current name), however, if theses are your choices for the best names out of "thousands of entries", I fear either your judgement is clearly impaired or we, as a society, truly have hit rock bottom in the creativity department. Six strikes! You're out! Please reconsider this decision to change our team that we know & love. It would be sad if your revenue took a nose dive because you chased all the fans away. Regards....

Weird.. I haven't heard of anyone else getting errors and I'm sorry you're getting one. Please let me know if you figure out why. The suggested names are: 1. Keep them the B-METS! 2. Go retro with the TRIPLETS! 3. Give a nod to Link Aviation with LYNX! 4. Honor Rod Serling with the TRIPLE CITIES TWILIGHTS! 5. Give note to our famous cuisine with the BINGHAMTON SPIEDIES! (Get it? Speed-ies?) 6. Remember EJ Shoes with the SPIKES!

Please don't do this to the B-Mets. No one wants to go see the Binghamton Stud Muffins, or the BInghamton Rumble Ponies, we don't want our team to be a giant laughing stock.

These are childish names that aren't even a little bit clever. I hope this stunt is a joke. It might seem funny Now to name a child "bear claw" but you'll regret it when he's 8 years old. You can do better binghamton.
