Beavers are awesome. Me and my lady friend started hiking a few years back. Both city ppl. And man....beavers are the most fascinating animals in the world to us now.

We been targeting hikes that feature beaver dams and lodges. If you chill quietly for an hour or two when the trails aren't busy they will come out and you can watch them work. They are more monogamous than humans lol.

Everything around us is to some degree attributable to beaver activity. Even hundreds of years later where they don't exist anymore.

In lab settings....if you play the recorded sound of running water through a speaker (with the water sound at the right speed and the right volume) they will start stacking objects around the speaker.

Animals of prey can't eat them because they can never get to them inside their lodges.

0% chance it’s going to be Beavers.

Sounds like we need to trap and parachute them into Northern Canada to fight the forest fires.

I tried using chatGPT and AI chatbot for team names and team logo .

It’s annoying because while it’s impressive, the AI is also quite dumb and it’s easy to broke the AI.

With Logos it’s even worse .

Anyhow see some of the picture generated by AI.

Can someone understand the concept ? It’s not bad looking but I don’t get the result .

Image

No team name ? I tried asking to keep the same picture and just add a team name but then the AI got from bad to worse .

Image

Like what is that thing? Seems like a cross between a griffin and a buck.

Image

Not bad but the BobCats look a bit too gentle . Also why this picture is giving me a Deja vu vibe ?

Image

I wanted a Huskies showing his crocs . But the AI literally put Crocs . LMAO. And why are they two like a couple LMAO again !

Image

I tried asking the AI to add Toronto . They just keep giving me the same picture …

Image

Not bad . But why does it looks like a bear ?

Image

I tried asking the AI to add Toronto . Game over !

Image

Not bad. Kinda low key like it . albeit I am not sure it’s a concept that fit with WNBA

Image

lol why 2 T at Toronto ?

Image

It was so hard to get a logo without an image of Toronto skyline . I needed to put battlements to have it more like a logo than a picture.

Image

Not horrible but pretty sure when we do better with that concept . I will continue working out the AI.

Image

I like Roadrunners as an option but this is horrible .

Image

What is that ? Looks like a beast ???

Image

There is way many more I generated . Some bloopers too.

Toronto Scarlet.

It's not cold, winter, ice/snow, or winter related. That would be a bad way to initially market the franchise.

The Reds would be better but Cincinnati took that already. Scarlet is another word for red, it represent Canada's flag, and it could lead to a cool mascot. A red husky with a massive scar?

I could be wrong but was under the impression that Valkyrie was rumoured for the GS new team.

I think Valkyries would be a great name, although there is a Canadian women's football team with that name

Why?


Cause it robs any possibility for the real team to take back its name. Create an original one.

Return to Toronto Raptors
