Explorers is solid. Just saw someone suggest Edmonton Eddies on Twitter. Apparently there's a military connection of some sort, but I think it's also pretty good on its own, sort of like Philadelphia Phillies. I think that's my new favorite.
I think either works ... eddies is like a phillies thing and Explorers goes with a open space expansive Alberta.
I'm going with the Edmonton Eagles. I realize it's a little mundane and there are the Philadelphia Eagles; however there are the BC lions and besides, there are a ton of Bald Eagles in and around Edmonton in the River Valley.Mascot could be Eddie the Eagle??? Just say'n...
The Edmonton Football Team asked for name submissions from fans as the franchise works through the process of selecting a new moniker.
Over 13,000 submissions were received. The EE Football Team would not share the exact amount of votes cast for each option, so in no particular order the top 10 list:
Elk
Empire
Eagles
Energy
Elite
Edge
Express
Extreme
Explorers
Evolution
It is difficult to come up with anything really original anymore, most names are recycled from previous leagues trams or versions of same. Hopefully they will choose something Edmonton related.I think Extreme or Xtreme has been overused but I do like Express.I suppose that would call for some train motiff.
Yeah, and we've had this discussion with XFL names, but coming up with something original also can really come across as bush league. I'd put Empire, Energy, Elite, Edge, Extreme, and Evolution in that category, and I'm tempted to do it with Explorers as well. Eagles is a classic name; they could (and probably will) do much worse.

Insider Talk is a weekly collection of anonymous quotes from people in and around the CFL. It’s a combination of news, insight, gossip, and fun.
I have two (American) clients who are pending CFL free agents. Both have decent (non-football) jobs right now and I’m encouraging both to keep them instead of going back to Canada. With what (CFL) teams are paying right now, we’ll wait for the XFL (in the spring of 2022).

If you want a FB career, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard
1) XFL may not happen
2) if XFL happens.... no one knows the pay structure
3) not playing FB for over a year isn't going to attract much attention
