It could have been worse!!

*******************************************************

... the NBA trademarked five potential names for New Orleans. Obviously, one was the Pelicans. Here are the other four:

-Bull Sharks

-Swamp Dogs

-Mosquitos

-Rougarou

New Orleans Pelicans/Hornets could have been the “Rougarou”?

On a side note, when is the Forums list going to be changed from Hornets to Pelicans?

Does worst nickname have to be a franchise? My vote for worst nickname in pro sports would be for "Ice".
