The pelican will eat as much as four pounds of fish per day, nearly half its body weight. Its bloodlust is insatiable. It wants to kill you and everyone you've ever cared about. Don't believe me? Here's a pelican eating baby ducklings. And because that's not cruel enough, it makes their mother watch.

I really like the pelican nickname and am not so childish as to think a nickname has to be intimidating. How intimidating is a nickname anyway? At least it's not one of those half-assed names like Krewe, Heat, Wild, Galaxy or other non-plural crap.

I think we just found the choices for the mascot name.

quote:

Here's a New York Times story from 1910, about a "marauding weasel" that found its way into the pigeon coop at the Central Park Zoo. Did the zoo's pelicans, Hildalgo Pete, Signor Gomez, and Sanchez Hoolihoo, run away? Did they stare helplessly as the weasel trespassed on their property and helped itself to a meal? They did not. They chased the weasel away from the pigeons, and cornering it against a mesh fence, beat it to death. "Even after the animal was dead the two pelicans…kept jabbing their bills at it."

That's hilarious. Once you get over the fact that the full name doesn't exactly roll off your tongue, it is pretty awesome. That proposed logo would instantly be one of the best in the league.
