jerryskids 5,069 Posted September 23, 2012 Hence why they should've used some common sense and changed the focking team name. When it was announced St. Louis was moving to Phoenix, "Firebirds" was perfect. Hot weather, team born again, etc, etc. Plus, they had the right color scheme. The owners of that franchise have been on the cheap for so many years, it's laughable. Best thing(s) they ever did in AZ was: 1. Draft Fitz. 2. Sign Warner 3. Logo on the back of the jersey above the nameplate. "Firebirds" was our AAA baseball team (Giants franchise) until 1997 when we got the DBacks. So somebody else thought it was an awesome name too, back in the 1950s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
