In shocking new Lagos ownership has announced that they will be moving the team to Rome for the 2105 season. The team will take on a new identity in efforts to forget their unsuccessful past and ditch the reputation of ineptitude. Upon their move the team will be renamed the Rome Generals. They will take up residence in the newly built Coliseum Stadium in Rome.
The mood in Lagos is pretty lethargic after the announcement. Local citizens stormed the team's front office buildings by the thousands in an effort to help the team pack for their move. But at the stadium it was a different story as fans gathered by the tens of people to protest the bulldozing of the field that was already taking place. Lagos Mayor Abadom Akintola said, "The loss of the Eagles franchise will be devastating to the baseball fans in our city. As for the other 95% of residents, they will make better use of the farmer's market that we will be constructing on the site of the old stadium."
Along with the announcement the team revealed their new logos and uniforms to be used in Rome. They also announced that the minor league affiliates will be moving to the cities of Florence, Milan, Venice and Naples.
