New Conference Name: American Metro Conference

[UConn Dan]

AMC for short. After all we are The Walking Dead.

 

[Adios]

Is this sarcasm?

My sources in WV are telling me it may be by next Tuesday.

There was also some BC poster here saying things would happen on Tuesday. They might be onto something!

 

[amory]

Can we all groom and dress like metrosexuals for the in-conference games? I think that'd be kinda funny.

 

[B1GEast]

Not buying it, sounds too much like the MAC

Too bad American Motors Company (AMC) is out of business. They would have been the perfect corporate sponsor. "AMC brings you the AMC"

 

[Durks07]

I still think the Dead on Arrival Conference has a better ring to it.

American Metro can't work... it is the name of a bank... and part of a name of a rail road... It is going to be something different. Haven't we learned not to trust bloggers from WV and those individuals up In Boston? They won't pay for the use of that name from such a small company.

I had the powder blue version in high school. '75, 232 cu inch, in-line 6 cyl. beast

American Metro is an awful name. Metropolitan Conference is better. How about Met12 or Mets2323.

I almost think Aresco is screwing with them and just buying time till all the graphics, etc... are done.

Big East source on name discussions: "The America, the Metro, the Collegiate, the United -- it covered everything."

"The source wasn't sure whether “Collegiate” or “United” Conferences were realistic names but said the above quote spoke to the wide-ranging nature of the brainstorming sessions among members. "America" and "Metro" have been reported as potential names."

So that's considered "brainstorming"

More like throwing against the wall and....

 

[Jimdish255]

National Sporting Alliance (NSA) - bet it didn't cover that... oops my phone's ringing.

Always liked the words Premier and Champions too. Can we stick them in somewhere?

OK just sell the whole thing to Bill Gates and let him name it. I'm done "brainstorming"

No - you missed the word Amateur. National Amateur Sporting Alliance (NASA)

GoDaddy.com Conference for $10M/year!

 

[The Funster]

Yeah really. Aresco should sell the naming rights for the conference. We could use the extra sheckels.

 

[CL82]

I still like The Beast, except for that unfortunate rhyming thing.

They should bring this car back... After all they did bring back the Dodge Dart... my first car was a '75 Dart (aka the Red Hornet)

 

[husky91]

How about the 5% conference or such, something reflective of the $2m each team gets vs. $40 in SEC or B1G soon.
