Report: Hornets becoming Pelicans

I like the Buzz or the Swarm.

How about the Shrimp Poboys? That way if you can't beat them, you can at least make them hungry.

I think N.O. should pay homage to its haunted history, but Voodoo is
already taken. How about New Orleans Boogers?

I get it, it's the state bird, but I'm still disappointed ('Krewe' being my first choice) ... why not 'gators' or the 'catahoula leopard dogs' if you want to identify with the entire state? It's not like pelicans are indigenous only to Louisiana.

Turrible. Just turrible.

This whole process takes years. It will involve market research and a vote. This is far from a done deal. Once they conduct the market research this idea will be squashed like a bug on the ground. Ain't gonna happen.

Look at the state picture of the bird feeding it's young. It's actually picking meat off itself to feed its young, a common practice with Pelicans and nothing to do with sports whatsoever! It's a bad fit. There are too many other viable candidates that trump this 10 fold. Love the Krewe. Perfect. Catahoulas also good. My high school mascot was a pelican. Awful, awful, awful.

Jazz shoulda never gone out of town.
Hornets ain't right

Sure I understand the Pelicans.

But KREWE woulda been awesome.

A wonderful bird is the pelican,
His bill will hold more than his belican,
He can take in his beak
Enough food for a week
But I'm damned if I see how the helican!
