If I were in charge of choosing a location for a minor league team for Hamilton it would be obvious to me. Not even 45 minutes up highway 6 from Hamilton is Guelph Ontario, my home town. Now why Guelph, you might be asking. Well first and foremost, its close, if you have a last minute emergency call up, they can get there in no time at all. Secondly, Guelph is a Hockey town. We already have an OHL team that has continuously pumped out elite caliber players for the past several decades, myself included, which means we also already have an arena that is an appropriate size for a minor league team to play in, located downtown. You may say "well if they have an OHL team thats already too much" to which I say, first, fuck you, second, Guelph is always looking for more hockey. Everyone and theyre mother is a part of a beer league here, weve had near knife fights just for first round playoff games, and Ive personally almost gotten in several fights just WATCHING games here. Not to mention Guelph (which is also a University town, and one of the fastest growing cities in Canada) already has an extensive history with Hamilton, when the Hamilton Tiger Cats of the CFL were building the Tim Hortons Place, they played at Guelphs Alumni Stadium, I also have to mention that because of Guelphs love of hockey, there is always ice availible for team practices. They could be called a whole slew of things, we could borrow the Guelph Gryphons, from the Uni, or we could go the Royal City (because thats what Guelph is actually called, the town is named after members of the royal family) and go with Royal City Rangers, or just the Guelph Royals, I personally like the idea of borrowing Gryphons from the Uni, but if that isnt possible I would just go with Royals. On that note, there are 3 people I would have managing the team, first and foremost, myself, Im from this city, I love this city, no one knows it like I do. Then I would have my best friend and team mate, Duck Moose @dmills3 and the god damn stats man himself Aaron Wilson @aaronwilson
