I would consider the disapproval of the state of Ohio to be a positive. But y'all keep rolling out the Cavaliers. Very intimidating, sitting in your glass house.

I like unique names, so I dig this.

Those are all historical sports names. Its not some new upstart name picked by a 10 year old. Blue Jackets would be a much stronger comparison in the retarded name department.

Not a Hornets or even basketball fan, but:

Pelicans >>>>>>> Buckeyes

on the team mascot scale

I'm trying to think of a single mascot in all of Ohio better than Pelicans... Dayton Flyers is pretty cool, if not terribly intimidating.

I like the name Thunder. Most people think it is generic, but it actually makes sense due to the team being in Oklahoma.

It would be generic if the team was in Georgia or something...

They are only historical because they stuck with shitty names for a long time. They are historically shitty. People are just used to the shitty names now because they've heard them for so long.
