That is one of the few names that I don't have a problem with. If you want to talk bad team names look no further than Knicks, Lakers , Celtics, Pacers, Nuggets & Spurs.

There was a time, I used to look into my father's eyes
In a happy home, I was a king I had a gold throne
Those days are gone, now? the memories are on the wall
I hear the sounds from the places where I was born


Up on the hill across the blue lake,
thats where I had my first heart break
I still remember how it all changed
my father said
Don't you worry, don't you worry child
See benson's got a plan for you
Don't you worry, don't you worry now
Yeah!


Don't you worry, don't you worry now
Yeah!
Ooh ooh ooh ooooh!
See benson's got a plan for you
Ooh ooh ooh ooooh!

Pay attention. This discussion never comes up without at least one person saying that Thunder is the dumbest name ever.

I live in OK and people are fine with the Thunder name.

But that's probably due to their success recently.

So you think Benson did no due diligence when it came to this rebrand and what would be the wisest move? You are probably right most billionaires jump into shite blind and hope for the best.

Well, I tend to value facts over opinions


The fact is that the people how matter chose Pelicans, because they thought it was the smartest and best choice. You are right they should have just used an ESPN poll

You're clearly right. 58% of Louisiana residents have a clear distaste for the name therefore they should cancel the press conference and change it to something totally different.

Oh yes it does. It proves it all the way. You are just a vagina thats going to sit on your "its lame" and its really fricking lame of you to be that shallow and not appreciate the nobleness, the regalness, the elegance of our new brand. It's quite immature actually.
