    Bombs Away To The Bay Area (Heads Up): 1981 Expansion and Contraction

    So if you learned what had happened so far in this dynasty called Bombs Away to the Bay Area, Bowie Kuhn changed his mind about the MLB to IBA plan, Major League Baseball has to give the team with the poorest record to Major League Baseball and one more team which will be announced during Summer Meetings on All-Star Break (after the Miss Universe, Inc. is being exempted that they are starting a teen pageant), and Bob Lurie decide to keep the Bay Bombers in the MLB for years to come, now with A's, Blue Jays are Brewers are probably going to the IBA in 1981 along with the Poorest Team in the League to replace the 2 worst teams from the IBA to Contraction, we will do a poll about the 1981 MLB Expansion so which two teams will like to join our league, please vote and Make-Up a Team Name (Logos are optional) then reply here!

    That Will Work, Current List of Team Name Votes so far

    Buffalo: Bisons, Bibles (1), Blessings (1)
    Denver: Rockies (1), Devotees (1), Divine (1)

    Now I've added more team names that are not voted, so if you want to vote just pick two cities and name the team (we can accept write-in votes that did not make the list and logos), so reply here.

    OldYankFan i could accept on your New Orleans Vote but unfortunately you can't vote for a team Seattle Because they joined the MLB back in 1977, you can choose a different team if you want, so do you want Las Vegas?

    And why can't Seattle have 2 teams? OK, let's go to Charlotte N.C. The Carolina Swamp Foxes.

    That's It, Put up the Longshot, as you know Charlotte had the following sports

    Baseball: Charlotte Orioles (AA - Southern League)
    Football: Charlotte Hornets (Played in the World Football League from 1974-1975, before heading to play in some mid-level Professional Football League as of today and hopefully in the future they would join the NFL.)
