Team names for orange uniforms

The art of the nickname has vanished in the past decade. I don't know if sports writers and people in general were more creative back then, but eras of the past definitely can boast the most memorable nicknames of all-time. The Louisville Cardinals basketball team of the early s was nicknamed "The Doctors of Dunk," obviously after their dunking ability. The Philadelphia Phillies of the early s were nicknamed the "Whiz Kids" because of their multitude of young ball players. The Southern Methodist talented rushing duo of Eric Dickerson and Craig James earned the nickname the "Pony Express" because of the school's nickname, the Mustangs. Jeff Gordon and his pit crew were nicknamed "The Rainbow Warriors" after the colors of his race car.
