She wants Black, Gold and Cardinal red (religious reasons) according to an interview with Jennifer Hale on Fox8 last night.

The "Steamers" logo in the ESPN designs the hornets thread is those colors. Not really my favorite. I really like the Krewe color scheme minus all the lime green.

I definitely wouldn't think the Cardinal Red would be one of the main colors, but a complimentary color.

I don't particularly like it either, but I also don't care that much anymore about names, colors, etc.

I just want the team to get better.

Or Cardinals as some have speculated. The logo better be a funny hat with fluer de lis symbols on it because if it's a red bird with that color scheme we're the 80's-90's Atlanta Hawks with a less manly bird.

Knights or Crusaders is my best guess, not my choices.

Depends on if it's Gayle's decision or merchandising's decision. Red and Gold with black as the accent would probably sell more merch than black and gold with red accents thanks to everyone already having tons of black and gold.

I do too, I just wouldn't want to be called the Cardinals using the old Hawks color scheme.
