Hornets to become Pelicans next season

[Mirko Cro Cop]

Sounds like a d-league name.

Birds are disgusting ****s and I hope they all die.




Look at that. They are god damn dinosaurs. Kill them all!

Pelicans have nothing to do with NOLA

If that's the case lets rename the Hawks to the Atlanta Grunge and call the new Seattle team the Seattle Hip-Hop

[Crystallas]

This is the best they could come up with?


To all of the people that were saying "New Orleans Crawfish" for the last year, even you are more creative!

[Zodiac]

C'mon guys are you pelicans or pelicants

[ClutchOver9000]

Pelicans??????

[bdreason]

And wouldn't the Oily Pelicans or Dead Pelicans be more fitting?

It could be worse.

They could name the team off an article of clothing.

Just see how this sounds:

*Marv Albert voice* And tonight it will be the New York Knicks in New Orleans to take on the Pelicans.

WHAT THE ****.

blazers? spurs?

The Pelican is the state bird of Louisiana. Could have been better, could have been worse. I am just happy we are erasing even more of George Shinn's legacy. Single worst owner in sports history.

Such a strange strange team are the Pelicans
They miss more shots than JohnBarrycan
From inside the paint
They fizzle then faint
Make the playoffs I say like helltheycan

[kurt_rambis]

this is will be the dumbest team name in professional sports history and i for one applaud the choice
