I really do like that name change, and I love all the young talent on that team, The Pelicans are going to be a force to be reckoned with. |
Seriously. Pelicans are like badass dinosaurs who SWALLOW OTHER ANIMALS ALIVE. Ya'll be haters.
It's not like they named them the New Orleans Rabbits or Crescent City Mice or Delta Dawns or some pussy bullshit like that. |
Bob Dole knows what the **** he is talking about.

This brings up another good point.
"New Orleans" is a boxy, shitty name for a city. It's the "LUHNS" at the end that throws off the flow of any mascot name. Nothing rolls off the tongue. The New Orleans Hornets were a mouthful to say. Something about going LUHNS- HOR- NETS trips up and just sounds like shit. Well, is there ANY name that would go well with "New Orleans"? Let's ignore stuff that matches the city/area's image. And stick with something simple like cat names. New Orleans Tigers? New Orleans Lions? New Orleans Panthers? Those all sound like shit. There's no ring to anything up there. To me, the only way around this issue of too many syllables that end with a consonant is to stick to one word. New Orleans Rape New Orleans Jazz New Orleans Saints It's not perfect, but it works. "Pelicans" just has too many damn syllables. |
That's why they said Pels.

The interesting bird the pelican. His beak can hold more than his belican.
I've heard that phrase every year since I could walk from my dad hunting ducks when the first flock migrates through. The last time was approximately 3 weeks ago. He's 82 and its gotten to the point he can't see them anymore. |
HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA HA WYA IJAKFLS

And aside from the complete and total shock, it's easy enough to warm to. I've always thought the Myrtle Beach variety had a pretty interesting name. |

New Orleans and Utah need to get together and make a deal here. Jazz is the name they need to be.

Might as well have gone with the New Orleans Beignets.
Seriously... If "Hurricanes" is okay for Carolina (hockey), its okay for basketball. Or how about the New Orleans Voodoo? That'd be a badass name. |

New Orleans, for one, welcomes their new platypus overlords. |

I like the New Orleans Rape, and it has local ties.

I'd go with something more regional like the New Orleans Drunk Topless Women, but I nonetheless like the Pelicans.
They could really do this gag well with a pelican mascot. http://gifs.gifbin.com/022010/126623...heerleader.gif |
The New Orleans Fema has a great ring to it.
|
Regarding "Pels". I don't think the PR department (or whatever department) of the team gets to choose the shortened or bastardized version of the official nickname, especially well ahead of any name change even occurring. This needs to happen naturally, and the short version shouldn't necessarily be one that the team likes a whole lot. That's where the fun is.
EX: Pelicans/'Cans/'Can'ts |
Go Pelicans!
|
It's official now. They're changing it starting next season.
The logo really isn't as bad as I thought it would be... still a pretty shitty name. http://nbcprobasketballtalk.files.wo...go1.jpeg?w=480 |
Logo isn't even bad, its the name.

nope, still don't like it. It should be the New Orleans Cajuns IMHO.

Great looking logo. But Hornets is a better name.

FYI.
Pelicans are MEAN. They are not docile creatures. |

Better just move the team to KC. Bring back the Kansas City Kings!
|
What are those swamp rats that swim around down there? They should have named the team that.
But I must say the logo and name look pretty good. |
Prrrrrrrrrrrrrrt
|
The New Orleans Manatees would have been a fine choice as well.
