How about "Warhogs", or "Meaty Grinders"? Not the biggest fan of a pig-team (....Pigmys?) though, but they are suberbly constructed and painted.

I'm too hooked up on running the NFL-theme all the way through, which would mean a repaint :-/

But I'm thinking, how about Pigskins as a twist on Redskins? Pigskin is also another name for the American football for all you non-believers :-)

Nice minis by the way!
I've always impressed by your ability to show up with team after team of converted and nicely painted minis, in what seems like no time at all.

These are mine, and the Steelers and Redskins are my most hated teams! In fact, I asked David to use silver instead of gold for the metal bits just to make sure that they wouldn't be mistaken for 'Skins of any sort. :P

These are going to be used exclusively (at least that's my initial plan) at the twice-annual Bacon Bowls in Richmond, VA. Vengeance will be ours!

As always, I can't recommend Laughing Ferret Studio highly enough.

A-hah, hah buddy! :-D

And you picked the Hogs, the most famousestest offensive line of all to be your team!? The Hogs was the nickname of Redskins dominant offensive line group during the 80ies!

Just sayin' of course :-)

Oh, I know all about them. The Redskins are our supposed regional team, so I've been subjected to about 30 years of coverage. At least the Hogettes finally hung up their snouts this year, though.

Thanks all :orc:

Wow, those Hogettes are really disturbing. stuff of nightmares. and how drunk are they? one has his nose upside down.

Heff: I could imagine a team using the line & blitzers, and using the dwarf roster.. call them the 'pot belly pigs' :lol:
