And the name of OKC’s new semi-pro soccer team is…

Last week, five possible team names and logos for Oklahoma City's new third-level semi-pro USL soccer team were leaked to the media. The choices were:

• 46ers• Energy• Flyers• Spirit• Wind

Well, the decision has been made. The name of Oklahoma City's newest fledgling minor league franchise is going to be called...

okc cavalry

Oops, wrong one!

-

coyotes

Damnit, did it again.

-

476_oklahoma_city-yard_dawgz-primary-2006

Ha, forgot about them!

-

bricktown brawlers

Yikes, I really forgot about that one.

See what I did there? I posted logos for other low-level minor league sports franchises that have called OKC home. The newest one will be called:

oklahoma city energy soccer

Yep, Energy FC. It could be worse, but I'm not a big fan. If the nickname of your sports franchise sounds like a name used by a female American Gladiator, it's probably not a good thing. Then again, I think the entire sports universe is running out of nicknames. I guess it works.

Anyway, I guess share your thoughts in the comments. Do you like the Energy? Think the team will work? Ashamed that we're talking about soccer? Let us know.
