I think Pelicans is fricking bad arse. Better than Krewe, Brass, Spirits etc... those are gayer than Christmas

You're right, it is. Brass belongs on a minor league hockey or WNBA team.

I think Pelicans is awesome. It's unique and represents Louisiana.

My sister wanted it to be renamed the Louisiana Duck Dynasty. Sigh.

Spin it anyway you want but pelicans is a terrible name. I think brass was pretty good whoever suggested that. Jazz would be perfect.

The way you frickers are pretending that you would have been happy about any name chosen is the funniest part about all this.

It's a message board. You woke up this morning hoping you could come here and throw a bitch-fit. Today, you have your topic.

True, I'm going to cheer for them regardless so I don't really care what their name is

Pelicans isn't any worse than Thunder or Magic. A badass logo and color scheme plus the team being good should make people forget about a bad name.

I wanted Brass, though.



I agree. I like Pelicans, the state bird, logo, etc. Love seeing the Pelicans glide of Lake Pontchartrain, very beautiful site.

People don't get it. It's part of the state's symbol. State flag, state nickname, etc.

People act like you can just take the Jazz name back. Utah has had the name for 30+ years. You can't just take it.

I liked the Brass or Pelicans.

Voodoo reminds me of Arena League team. The Arena League reminds me of Chalmatians. No thanks!
