Well congratulations. They win the award for the most idiotic name possible. (IMO of course) Lord knows the Niagara River is just teeming with lions. Lord knows lions and water go so well together.

I think the team will draw well lot of basketball fans in the area esp if they promote the team to the schools and Brock U.

This will be a colossal failure. That's one of the stupidest logos names and colours I've ever seen wow ...
