The plural of bison is bison

[therising]

...so, should we all be embarrassed by the fact that our professional baseball team is called the Bisons?

What if Denver had a team called the Denver Deers?

Furthermore, Buffalonians seem to be fond of pronouncing the S, as a Z. That is also incorrect.

Doe a deer, a female deer.
We all know nothing in Buffalo is "correct".

Although you are correct, "wiktionary" claims the plural can go either way.

Just for fun , name as many pro sport teams that don't have a "s" at the end of their "name" (ex. Boston Red Sox<----the "x" is last) , no "s" there.......

It's not nearly as having our professional football team lose for straight Super Bowls!

Why be embarrassed about that? I can see about never winning the big game but the two are different for me. All and all it was a great run for almost a decade.

Missing the playoffs for 6-7 years...that is embarrassing....
