Lori Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 FC Buffalo goes national For those who might not know what Nick Mendola (aka Nick_BCFC) has been doing lately other than the WGR-WECK jump, he's also part-owner of a minor-league soccer club which starts its inaugural season in a couple of weeks. They're running a naming contest, and when people noticed that "Wolf Blitzers" was one of the choices ... well, things got weird. Fark jumped on it, the link showed up on SI.com, and today, Nick ended up explaining the deal on CNN. All in all, pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McBeane Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I really don't like any of the nicknames other than the "Bolts." Blitzers? Really? That sounds like such a football name... I think they could have had some better options. Still really cool though that semi-pro soccer is coming to Buffalo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The choices make a little more sense now.. kinda sad that's all the community could come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickMendola Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Thanks... It's been a wild ride. As far as the suggestions, we're new here so we went with what we got. Want to be a fan-oriented team, so we want to do this all democratically. Hope you all can come out for a game. We're happy to answer any questions, or include anyone in any way.
