meh I feel like that is a bit of a reach. When I hear "spirit" I dont think of Louisiana or NOLA. I guess there's a bit of a connection but either way,like you said, the name sucks.
New Orleans was Travel Channel's most haunted city in America. Spirits (alcohol) are fairly popular in New Orleans. I hate the name, I'm just throwing out how it applies to N.O.

Not a fan of either. Give me Pelicans. Or, as I'm watching Ken Burns' Baseball at the moment, steal the name from Louis Armstrong's Negro League team, with a slight tweak: The New Orleans Secret 5.

Angels is bad but Spirit is awful. Definitely a 6-8 year old girl's soccer team name.

I'd rather Benson be narcissistic like the old Bobcats owner and name us the New Orleans Tomcats in a trade with the Bobcats to give them Hornets back

Horrendous names. I wouldn't hate Angels so much if it wasn't already taken. Hornets is way better than either two of these atrocious options. Gross.

You know, I haven't thought of that one, but yes . . . I think it would work.

They always play that little promo on Channel 4 that says, "The spirit of Louisiana, makes Louisiana home."
