I didn't create it unfortunately it was a team in the WLAF (World League of American Football). I got it from here - San Antonio Riders - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It does sound a lot like Raiders. Maybe Roughriders would work

Let's get away from the cowboy on a horse theme. The Cowboys all ready exist. How about the San Antonio Stallions? It's still a western theme but minus the riding cowboy.

San Antonio Outlaws, Or the San Antonio Rangers. I like the Rough Riders too. Or maybe even the San Antonio Calvary?

Or maybe something to do with the Alamo or some other famous event in the area could be used to come up with a name.

Actually, I think Stallions might work for San Antonio. That's if a team comes to town, because there's no expansion on the horizon and they'll certainly have to get a team already playing. My goodness, can you imagine what the realignment would look like regardless of what conference SA goes into? They probably won't end up in the same division with neither the Cowboys nor the Texans. Don't get me wrong, it would be great for San Antonio to get a team, but it looks like a longshot when the Texans are trying to win new fans and the Cowboys have a strong fan base in many places, including SA. Realistically, I believe SA is going to have a difficult time trying to establish a fan base outside of Loop 1604.

Does not really matter..Although it would benifit San Antonio to
get an NFL team the Mayor and city council are not brilliant enough to
realize that just having an NFL team would create jobs..But we will stay in the back of the pack until San Antonio gets real business minded people in office..Until than keep watching TV thats the only NFL San Antonio will get..
But anyway how about
caballero`s

Do you live or follow the news in S.A.? I figure that if you did, you would know that the Mayor and the County Judge have done just about everything possible to bring an NFL team here.
