I haven't like too many of the names mentioned. The Angels and Spirit sound like WNBA team names. The others sound like D-league or Arena League names. The Dukes or Deacons aren't bad. At least they sound mature. Honestly, I wouldn't mind if we just kept the Hornets and changed our color scheme and completely lost the old logo and accept the the fluer de lis hornet as the official logo.

Agreed. They're right up there with the Cocksmokers.

Now with Davis, we don't even need a rebrand anymore. Keep Hornets and the Fleur de Bee! That alone makes it local.

I'd say use the Mardi Gras colors more often as opposed to 4 days

The Spirit is really growing on me. The spirit of our city with all the diverse people, food, traditions. There is no name better to represent our franchise and our city! The Spirit of New Orleans!

Believe it or not . . . I don't hate the Spirit. I might be able to get behind it. Or the Brass. Maybe even the Pelicans, but I'm not as sure about that.

If they keep the Hornets, I wouldn't lose any sleep over it. But I'm pretty sure they're going through with re-naming.

It worked much better for the ABA team in St. Louis.

Not really, I just get tired of some of the obsessed nutjobs over there who apparently spend their time searching out ridiculous websites so they can find the latest reactionary crap to post.

And, believe me . . . it's not easy being VOR over there.

I'm not reading 30 pages of posts to see if this was discussed, but there is a potential obstacle with Spirit: the ABA's Spirits mentioned above.

The short of it is that the owners of that defunct team still collect TV money from the Spurs, Nuggests, Pacers, and Nets. These 4 teams net less TV money than the other 26 as a result.

If the Spirits exist as more than just a P.O. Box, those brothers that own the `team' could block a Spirit name.
