Contenders vs Pretenders

[Jave]

No bad blood between the Pirates and Assassins? Don't count on it!



The "Pirates"? Yea, the only thing they pirated is the name. How bout we call them the "Wannabe Assassins". They quickly put ink on paper in the IFL front offices in guaranteeing the Pirate name. While Oakland went about contacting players in regard to the draft, the "Pirate" name got put on the backburner. When the time came to put a name to the team, the city of Oakland was informed that the "Pirates" nickname was already taken by the fair weathered city of...........Orlando?
Its an insult that will not be forgotten. They then went the distance by making the team color, black. Orlando. Did you think this went unnoticed? Did you think that the great fans of this great city would not notice?
Now comes the time that we are able to take out our revenge. This will be no ordinary game for first place or bragging rights, no. This is a game of pride. When this game is finished, and the Assassins finish the job beating you into submission, you will no longer use the nickname, "Pirates", nor will you be able to use the color black. These great symbols will forever be reserved for the city of Oakland.

The city of Oakland, California, and the Oakland Assassins have spoken.

Your title says it all, Jave.
You must have picked all your "fans" that attended the game, and made them sit in one section for this picture.

You're "pretending" that you have fan support

Orlando chose the name Pirates due to the fact that most Pirates in history either buried there treasure or sunk off Florida waters. Thus the monicker - "Pirates" Oakland really only has gang bangers and is a stone's throw away from San Fran with its alternative lifestyle advocates. Maybe you should go with the Oakland Bang Gangers, or maybe the Annihilators suits you just fine.

Haha that's a good point! It really punches a hole in the Alternate Universe when there are these kinds of inconsistencies. Jave, you should post a more wide angle shot of the stadium:
