Don't worry, if this is true Charlotte will probably become the Hornets again.

They need to play this on the big screen before tipoff every game.

But you can't kill me because you are a fricking pelican. At least some people are allergic to Hornets.

But being a bitch about something that you can't change does nothing but make you look pretty damn ridiculous.


I hope I don't look ridiculous on a message board. The internet is where cool people go to be cooler.

@dailythunder: Names grow on us. I remember really disliking "Thunder" a whole lot. Now it's no big deal at all.

Jester, ever seen a Pelican AROUND here?

Isn't that what makes it local?

Pelicans are not local, though. Being the state bird does not make it unique to the state, especially if they leave off the important "Brown" part.


You do know that Louisiana is nicknamed "The pelican state" right?

That has a lot to do with performance though. People still think "Bobcats" is fricking retarded.

Mardi Gras is in Mobile. Jazz people come from everywhere. Brass was invented before the Constitution was a twinkle in anyone's eye.

What else can we rip on about every other name to prove that nothing is local?

I still think Thunder is fricking retarded. The most retarded, in fact.

Pelicans seems like a limited-market name. I can't see this expanding in the gulf south like the Saints did.
