I would have been very happy using Thunder Chickens.  The reference to a legendary football unit connotes intensity of purpose and  excellence to me. Further, it simplifies references to our distaff athletes, as exemplified by our honorable CardBoard contributor.

However, I would confess that I have a weakness for the name Robber Barons.  I recognize the underlying self-deprecation, but it might pre-empt our critics using Leland's notoriety in their efforts to insult our founder.  But mostly, it just tickles my innards to picture the Parker Bros. Monopoly Man as our sideline mascot.
