I get what you're trying to imply, but it's just not there. He answered the question with "Hell no." He does not like the name Pelicans. The rest of his statement only says that he wanted Voodoo or Brass. It doesn't say that that is the reason he didn't like Pelicans. The punctuation is lacking either way.

Just deal with the fact that a lot of people upon first hearing it make a fart face. I think you are trying to minimize that people don't generally like it. We understand that we're going to have to deal with it over time, but don't act like we need to smile while eat this shite sandwich. People are going to vent, and as soon as you come to realize that, you will be a much more content person.

Yeah I decided to temper my statement with a more realistic claim. However, you really are taking your dissent overboard. I realize you are going to say that you don't care about anyone's opinions but you've stated that you don't like it. There is no reason to continue to shite on everything pelicans related over and over again. We get it

Jester, I have to agree man. It's a little overboard at this point and has gotten very tiring.

But I realize my or anyone else's opinions don't matter, so do what makes you happy, I guess.

Knowing that my favorite team on the planet is changing their name to the Pelicans is tiring.

I love it and can't wait to see the logo reveal tomorrow. I really hope they don't incorporate a fleur de lis into it.

yes, but it wasn't my top choice.

I would have preferred Voodoo or Brass.

Don't like the name but it will prob grow on everyone over time. So many better names out there...Pelicans just comes across as soft.

Would like to have seen the team colors be black n gold. No one in the league has those.

fricking boss. Got my vote. I'm sure that comes as a surprise.

Not really horrible and there is some logic to it. I don't hate it. Depends on how its marketed. If they become a contender, it'll be fine.

If you would have asked this same question when the name Pelicans was still up in the air, you would have gotten a lot more no's

Now that it's a done deal, the New Orleans mentality no longer allows them to dislike the name or just agree that it's lame and could have been much better. Just because it's New Orleans, the New Orleanians must like it.

Said it before- Saints is a terrible mascot for a sports team.

And I love the team and the name- shite my high school mascot was Saints too.

It's not Voodoo, but if Saints can become a legit name, so can Pelicans

I agree. I love the Saints and the name now, but it was sort of dorky in the beginning.

Yup.

Why?

Because most of whining complaining ninnies here know nothing about brands and are focused on the wrong thing (e.g. yeah, the haaaardest name, representing `me' and `my culture I'm reading about right now' or some other nonsense). The others are whining complaining ninnies who know something but can't but whine and complain for some reason.

Enjoy the team you have. If you can't, ask someone in Sacramento for advice.
