One of the coolest names in sports, as far as I'm concerned, are the "Blazers".
In the current NBA team from Portland, Blazers is a shortening of Trailblazers, but still, enough history of smoking ganja and playing with fire, any way you get to Blazers is fine with me.
At one point in 1974, there were two different teams in America called the Blazers. The first seems like it was named after a firing of some kind of accelerant or other flammable thing. I'm only guessing from the look of this very cool logo, from a World League Football team from Florida.
In the same year, '74, the Blazers from Portland had this logo, something cool that I can't place what exactly it is, or where it could have come from...maybe a storm? The logo used today is a variation on this design.
The logos from that WLF are fodder for a post of their own, but that may be for later.
