    Re: Hornets Changing their name to...

    Don't care about the creature itself just how clumsy the word Pelicans is to say. Especially when you add New Orleans in front of it. Doesn't flow well.

    The fact that the creature it's self is looked at as a goofy bird is just farther reason to pick another name. Hopefully this isn't final. Have a hard time getting behind this name as of now. Buying gear is probalby out the window as well. However there's no name that will get me to stop following my team.
    You looking at the Chair MAN!

    Number may not tell the whole story ,but they never lie either.

      Can't New Orleans cook up some kind of trade with Utah for the Jazz name?

      Part of Anthony Davis' unibrow, mardi gras beads, and some crawfish for the Jazz?

        The only important news will be when Charlotte gets the Hornets back. I don't care about New Orleans teams.

          Well easy enough people will probably call them the Pels, because having a three syllable nickname is odd.

          Also there is no doubt in my mind that the logo will be a Pelican in the shape of a Fleur-de-lis. The design will be easy with a head and two wings. With the colors they should go with Brown and Old Gold (similar to St. Bonaventure). After all the state bird is specifically a Brown Pelican.

            The New Orleans Pelicans sounds like a minor league team.

                            I was actually coming in here to say Blues.

                            Not just as a toss out, but because New Orleans Blues was actually a distinct genre of blues music that was made popular in the 40s.

                            It took original Blues and incorporated Caribbean style influences. We had to study it in Music History.

                            Soul would be pretty awesome as well. Actually anything would in comparison to Pelicans lol

                            Or they could always just go for the New Orleans Beignets. It's french so it's gotta be cool. There mascot could be this:

                              Beat me to that Blues one lol. Makes so much more sense. Pelicans is the worse decision possible. Hell they could of called themselves the New Orleans Brows after Anthony Davis and it would of been a better choice than Pelicans. Hope they reconsider that before they start mass producing the logos on stuff.

                                Question: Other than nostalgia purposes, what would be the big deal about Charlotte possibly getting the Hornets name back?
