I agree, Jester. With all you say. Free agents will take public perception into account, they just will. And that sucks. As far as the name goes, it just doesn't rolllll off the tongue lol..all the other "lame" sports names in that other thread kinda do..Los Angeles lakers, Chicago cubs, etc. I'm hoping it grows on everyone though. Real fast.

You guys know what free agents will take into account?

Money and Winning

Those two things.

We're going to be re-named the Pelicans next season. Most people mad. Some people are good with it. Droman is fighting for the good cause. Jester on the other side. Good battle. Whats ur vote? like or dislike?

If the logo is as plain as the Thunder and Nets, I boycott the team!

You are saying it matters and it doesn't matter.

But now your just saying it doesn't matter.

Even though you brought up free agents.

Like it matters.


I can't make you understand and I'm done trying to explain it to you.

Yes, it does matter, but not as directly as you are looking for me to say.

Yes, and playing for a team with national appeal increases your visibility, thus you get larger endorsement opportunities, ie money.

I would say that has a lot more to do with the market, rather than the national appeal of the team.

fricking Heat. That's actually a teams name right now. And it's the most attractive team in the league.

You should spend more time in non-superficial threads.

Free agents aren't going to take the name into account.

This is what they take into account:

1) Market
2) money
3) winning.

End of list.

I like it. Brass, Krewe and Voodoo were higher up on my list but Pelicans isn't bad at all

Though I'll be waiting to see logo/color scheme/uniforms before I make a full decision (as should everyone)
