Proposal:

Appeal to the Honduran fanbase
* lock up a banana company as the shirt sponsor, i.e. Dole
* find a distant relative of Lee Christmas and make him chairman

Partner with Tom Benson
* black and gold team colors

Appeal to the culture of New Orleans
* go by something unique to the region: buccaneers, brass, crescent city, gamblers, etc.

Get a French player

*Anelka would be hilarious

If it wasn't for Columbus, I thought the idea someone had on here earlier of the New Orleans Krewe would be the best name. Or Krewe of New Orleans.

I'm no good at photoshop. I'd love to see someone design a prospective kit though.

It would have to be a club name used by other larger European clubs, regardless of the name making sense culturally or geographically.

I'm thinking something along the lines of

Bayern New Orleans

or

Sporting New Orleans United

Or

Even

Real Sporting New Orleans United

I'd rather not pick a mascot right off. Let the fan base kind of adopt one.

Would like to it, but, don't see it happening.
