They'd need a Marvel crossover for that stunt...
Thought i heard Spidy was originally DC, but Marvel "borrowed" him as an Avenger.

Spiderman has always been a Marvel creation... however, Marvel sold his movie rights to Sony (along with the Xmen and Fantastic 4), so they had to work out a deal with Sony to get him into the MCU

I don't like it. :ohwell:
Well i have zero Ravens RB stock.
I was merely lamenting my bromance for Gus. I mean, i kinda gave up long ago that he gets his shot as a starter. But now Melvin is just another eclipse of the heart.

Gordon will be paid to practice. Can’t blame them for wanting insurance.

They made use of Freeman and Murray 2 years ago at the same age as Gordon. After injuries of course, so maybe you're right and they are just getting a head start.

Blackhawk (Black Hawk) was the name of a leader of the Sauk tribe of native Americans who lived in the area of Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa.
There are rivers and areas of land named for him in these states. To the Sauk people, Black Hawk was a hero. He even has a statue in Rock Island, IL.
Compared to the other sports team names, Blackhawk was not slang or derogatory.

Doesnt mean that some wont find a reason for a change to be made at some point?
:noidea:
From a local standpoint, we havent heard anything about a name change. Not a sniff.
