Didn't even think of that. If they integrate the flag somehow, I think I'd be in love.

Kinda weird, though, that talking about red/blue uniforms made you think of Like Mike.

What can I say? I love all basketball movies. Even crappy ones about magic shoes.

They must have wanted black as the main color


Most likely but if black was a trim color our away jersey would be either pure red or gold...

Just PLEASE don't be the Voodoo or Krewe or some horrible cheesy WNBA/MLS name.


Pretty sure that we can rule out Krewe with these colors.

People should keep in mind that if we're gonna guess the name, it has to be based off of the original black, red, gold, that they wanted.

IIRC, last time Gayle mentioned these red/gold, she said something about a name with religious affiliation such as Angels or Cardinals. I could be making that up though.

Hornets 247 has acquired information that points to the Angels and Spirit as the two leading names in the event of a rebrand.

quote:

Recent filings to the Louisiana Secretary of State list both “The New Orleans Louisiana Angels, LLC” and “The New Orleans Louisiana Spirit, LLC” as reserved names. There are also additional filings reserving logo’s for both names. Additionally, the city for all four filings is listed as Metairie, where the New Orleans Saints are headquartered and registered.

There had been talk about both of these names since Tom Benson bought the team and the filings seem to confirm that.

There are no filings for names like “Brass” or “Krewe” as far as we’re aware.

Really don't know if I'd still follow the team if they changed their name to the Spirit

I'm not sure I can support something so unequivocally homosexual

I remember that whole debacle, but I thought she directly mentioned those colors and Angels/Cardinals in the same conversation. Maybe not, though...

I just have a hard time believing it can actually be Angels when Major League Baseball already has this.

I'm really not a fan of more than two primary colors for a sports team

I could rock with the New Orleans Andouille though!
