And I love the fact that no one outside LA will have a clue.

Would be a nice and complimentary team name to the Saints.

The fact that it sounds more like some kind of guttural throat sound than the name makes it fun to just chant it over and over again. Try it.

Rougarou! Rougarou! ROUGAROU! ROUGAROU! ROUGAROU!

Hell, can bring back the Arsenio Hall show hooting/barking thing. Rou! Rou! Rou! Rou! Rou!

No one actually likes it. It won't be the name. Although I can believe that Jester actually likes it.


I honestly used to like you. Not sure what your problem is, but you're acting silly.

Lighten up Frances. It was a joke. I'm just fricking with you.

Rougarou is insanely terrible though. I mean, it's funny and all. But terrible. Anyone who actually thinks it should be the name without just being Hipster Ironic...

And nothing was hipster ironic about a Pelican, right? It was "unique."

Um. No? It's the state bird. It's a word in English. It's on virtually every emblem of the State.

A rougarou is the equivalent of calling them the Phoenix Chupacabra's or something.

Extremely minor league. And weird.

I mean I find it funny too. But anyone that says they want it isn't being serious. One they want to be "different".

I'm all about offbeat...but this is just bizarre to the Nth degree.

Ultimately I won't care though. I'll cheer for them if they are the Trannys.

Jester you're reaching. The two can't even be compared. Be intellectually honest.

You can hate the name all you want, but you can't argue with me on this point with a straight face.

Rougarou sounds like a great choice for the Zephyrs if they ever rebrand not a NBA team Such a minor league name!

Mirror mirror... Pelicans were, by the very definition, "minor league."

For the record, I am not for being called the trannies.
