Nah I think my mind is open enough. It's gonna be one of those things where everyone is like "lol yeah Rougarou is awesome!" and then a little while down the road when they hear it enough and see how much everyone ridicules it then they'll realize it was a mistake to permanently change our name to the fricking ROUGAROU.

i really don't think it is based on the way you staunchly defend anything you believe in without as much as acknowledging the other argument. last night when i tried to have a nice conversation about it, everything i said you just shat upon.

I'm usually open to discussion. I just really, really hate the Rougarou and would be sick if it picked up steam and became our permanent name.

You can't possibly use this argument while supporting Pelicans, which was a twitter joke for several days after being reported.

did the rougarou haunt your dreams as a child?

sorry to burst your bubble, but the organization is not going to make a decision based on what Hornets Talk says. it's going to be pelicans. but you should also realize why people would prefer Rougarou to other names on the list that was passed out last night.

Pelicans.


Every time I see a Pelican, I think of basketball. It works for me.

I'm by no means a huge Pelican fan, but just look at the two names. Pelicans can at least be nationally identifiable. Although I guess it'll be hard for people to make fun of a goofy sounding word that they can't define that refers to an imaginary being.

Yeah I understand that part (Mosquitoes? ). I'd also like to know why Brass and Krewe weren't on there when they were in serious discussion as a possible name.

No, frick you. If you're from Louisiana and you're this embarrassed about Louisiana culture then you need to grow a pair of nuts. Seriously, shut the frick up.

When Pelicans came up, those two were mentioned as the other options they were looking at.

I'm not embarrassed by Louisiana culture. I just think it's an awful name to be stuck with.

No. You don't want the name because you think people will make fun of us. Quit being so insecure, it's making you look like a little bitch.
