The Australian Football League's newest expansion franchise announced its name during a banquet last night, and it may sound familiar. The Gold Coast Football Club will be known as the Gold Coast SUNS. In addition to the name, the team unveiled its logo, jersey (or "Guernsey," as they call it) and even a fight song, the "Suns of the Gold Coast Sky."
Having recently spent a week down under myself, and quite a bit of time with the fine folks at the AFL, I think it's pretty cool to have the name Suns represented by another sports franchise in another part of the world.
I love the idea of a team fight song, too. What do you think, fans? I've got an autographed basketball in my office that I will give away for the best Suns fight song uploaded to PlanetOrange.net by the end of August, 2010. That gives you a little more than five weeks to write your lyrics and record your tune. Let's here it! Go Suns! Both of them!
First off, I've read and heard nothing about this idea so far, so it's has no basis in fact and is just brainstorming and speculation. Second, I apologize that it's a long post, but I hope the point I bring up is worth the read.
So put yourself in the shoes of one of these handful of teams that have cleared up a ton of salary space the last 3 years all in an effort to sign a big name free agent.
I am relieved (for now) that we chose not to trade amare. I really hope that sarver,kerr and amare can come to an agreement on an extension very soon. Amare seems to want a couple more years added on and is not asking for more money now. Maybe he wants a longer contract instead of more money because he would prefer to finish his career in phoenix where it all began. That's something for sarver to think about. It stills seems that stat would prefer to stay in phoenix even though the money he would get from
I was captain of our team for the latest work team bonding day - my team the "Purple Pizza Eaters" broke through for our second win this year (2 from 3 baby!)
I had to choose the team uniforms, so what else would I go with? best part about it is the ugly dude on the left is a die hard spurs fan
I can't wait to be in Phoenix on April 3!!! Sorry that you can't join us this time. LOL
I know that every dollar and every single penny gonna worth it. It's really priceless!
Thank for sharing us experiences as I know I will never have chance to enter the cool locker room like you guyz, but at least I know now how it looks like from your experiences.
