BRASS

And they should have long-term, ugly, Davis Raiders/Shanahan Broncos beef with Utah for not giving back Jazz.

what is not to like

― Clay, Friday, 7 December 2012 06:07 (twelve years ago)

Jazz, not even close with the others. Although pelicans is cool, jazz is just perfect.

Hmm Brass is good, wish I'd included that

dead cat bounce

― Aimless, Friday, 7 December 2012 19:14 (twelve years ago)

new orleans bounce is favored option of yuppie carpetbaggers so it must be opposed.

brass is acceptable but was the name of our minor-league hockey team that left when the hornets showed up.

pelicans is cool, obviously jazz is best choice.

WOW BOUNCE IS SO PERFECT, THAT ONE

― J0rdan S., Saturday, 8 December 2012 03:27 (twelve years ago)

let's just take a stand here and now against teams being named for abstract nouns, ok?

i think it's cool

― J0rdan S., Saturday, 8 December 2012 03:34 (twelve years ago)

feel sort of reactionary agreeing w/this but its true theyre just awkward, which is not to say theyre all awful, but theyre all kinda awkward

― lag∞n, Saturday, 8 December 2012 15:56 (twelve years ago)

Obv Jazz, but Pelicans is my second choice. Bounce is shit.

― EZ Snappin, Saturday, 8 December 2012 16:00 (twelve years ago)

i recently found out that theres an english soccer team called crystal palace, which is just the best, so new orleans crystal palace maybe

― lag∞n, Saturday, 8 December 2012 17:39 (twelve years ago)

naming yr team after a local music known for its extreme lyrical misogyny would be an interesting choice, nothing against bounce

― lag∞n, Saturday, 8 December 2012 17:41 (twelve years ago)

bounce is dope bc mannie fresh cd be their mascot THINK ABT IT

― shave and a haircut...2 CHAINZ (m bison), Saturday, 8 December 2012 17:42 (twelve years ago)

gawky bird of death

― Aimless, Sunday, 9 December 2012 00:56 (twelve years ago)

The bird is a little too busy but the word-mark is really fantastic. Love how the tail on the E fills the open space under the cap P.
