The Akron Aeros have changed their name to the Akron RubberDucks. I’m not much of a fan of this name change because it’s a bit too gimmicky for me. I know they wanted to include rubber in there because of its importance to Akron, but teams should not be named after bathtub toys. And turning a two word phrase into one word doesn’t help.
