It is truly awful. We are fairly new to the area, but, I loved the Road Warriors! We attended a few games, and enjoyed them very much, but, with this new name change, I don't know if we will bother, lol. I know this sounds silly, but, the new name is not very inspiring!

Maybe I'm weird, but I think it's a great name. What are Road Warriors anyway?

Default Little bunnies are cute.

I never liked 'Road Warriors,' such a generic name. Plus, don't they want to play well at home?

I like Swamp Rabbits better. More personality, more local.

It ain't 'Banana Slugs,' though!

I read that the Road stood for the car industry in the area; Michelin and BMW. It was submitted by a fan when they had a "name your team" contest.
