Bristol Bears is a missed opportunity by @Bristol_RFC...not too late to rectify. Bristol has long history of aviation, made fighter planes that were backbone of RAF in WWII. Bristol Bombers anyone? Unless I'm wrong and there *are actually wild bears living on the Downs?

Dear Bristol Rugby, Please don't rename yourself the Bristol Bears. You're not a regionally-based children's book or an LGBTQ Facebook group. Regards, Common sense

@Bristol_RFC @Bristol_Sport please do not rebrand Bristol Rugby with some stupid name like Bears. We’ve just got promoted and need to be taken seriously. Listen to your fans!!!!
