I knew no good would come of the Captains being sold. The only good thing about the Swampdragons was the combination with the Lord of the Rings to inspire my internet identity. Gassers is antiquated, but economic industry names have been popular in minor leagues. The 1919 Beaumont team was the Exporters, and Waco was the Navigators, so there were three workers, four animals, and the Galveston Pirates. Which I guess was Galveston's principal industry at one time.
