Honestly, Stern wasn't moving the team, either way. In fact, is there an owner in all of major sports that threatens to take his ball and leave more often than Benson?

Per Yahoo, Hornets will change name to Pelicans quote: You really can't bash this now. Thunder sounded like the dumbest name ever at first. We'll all get used to it rather quickly. Thunder is 4,000,000 times less lame than Pelicans. When I hear thunder, I fear lightning. When I hear Pelicans, I feel like I'm about to get shite on.
You're out of your mind. Thunder is the lamest name perhaps in all of professional sports.

Feels like the name would fit better if the prefix was Louisiana tho

Brass was my favorite name thrown out there, but Pelicans was a close second. I can't wait to buy a New Orleans Pelicans Uni-brow jersey.

Unless someone is named the Bronies, the Thunder will be the lamest. Pelicans is unique. And fun.

For those that don't like the name, there is a chance this rumor has been floated out there for a reason. Don't put it past Benson to gauge the reaction to the name Pelicans by letting a reporter break the story. Nobody has confirmed this story yet, this may all be an experiment
