Who cares what the League name is of the New Pro League, just have each of the 8 Conferences within these Leagues take the name of the existing Nat. Pro League. Tradition lives on.

I have the following proposal for naming the 4 new contracted Pro Leagues and for naming the 2 Conferences in each of those 4 leagues.

North American Pro League
- USA Conference
- Canada Conference

South Atlantic Pro League
- South America Conference
- Africa Conference

Pacific Pro League
- Oceania Conference
- Southeast Asia Conference

European Pro League
- Eastern Europe Conference
- Western Europe Conference

What do you guys think?

I'm thinking that they were already going to name them that.

I certainly hope so...

Edited the rest of my reply out, since it was just a cheap shot at Bort and Catch, and I'm feeling magnanimous today.

Would rather have some sort of regional identity where possible. I think that tends to add some fun in terms of team names, logos, forums, etc.

I agree with this but... The problem with Teams demoting and what not, You'll end up with Detroit in Southeast Asia and Tokyo in South America. Let's just go with some directional stuff like East West, North South.

Honestly... cruise around the pro league right now and tell me how many teams fit snugly into their regional category anymore.

Where does LEGION'S Cult of Wu Hood fit anyways?

Naming based on a geographic location does not matter at all. This is by far the best naming suggestion I've seen for the new Pro Condensing.

I like it.

If you name your Team Miami, You shouldn't get to pick which Nat. Pro League to go to. You should go to the USA Conference. That is the problem, too many Teams might want to be from a city in USA and not enough spots in that one Conference. As I came up in this game, USA Pro was were the big dogs played and I took pride as an American in USA being the best League. All that has gone to crap now. Regionalism is DEAD Epic fail GLB and let's try something else, I.E. AAA, AA, A like it use to be or something.

Nobody gives a fuck about regionalism. Why mess up parity to ensure things are arranged according to name?

+100000 to the OP, SLAP lives on

I've always played in SA Pro with Porto Alegre (appropriately named), but I would much rather keep the league identities before some OCD issue with having the wrong city name for your conference region.
