Collin County becomes a tourist attraction for sports fans


Allen has joined the ranks of Dallas with a full line up of minor league sports teams.  At the top of the list is the new minor league hockey team, The Americans. The team plays out of the Allen Event Center, a $70 million project- it was a mixed private-public venture.  The benefits of professional sports teams “provide a brand for the city.  It says something about its maturity from an economic…and social standpoint”.
The Americans are just one of the several teams up and coming in Collin County.  The Frisco Roughriders (baseball), Texas Tornados (hockey), and NBA D-league (currently being named). 
Here are the final 3 candidates, what is your choice for the NBA’s new D league team name:
a)      Texas Stallions
b)      Texas Legends
c)       Texas Shooters
