I started talking with a friend last night and it continued via text this morning, what should we call the Magic? I mean yes, the have the worst and sorry, gayest nickname in the league. Could you imagine a dude like Dwight Howard, 7'1" ridiculous athlete cut up like a fitness star, meets a girl who doesn't know him "Ohhhh, what do you do for a living?" "Umm, I play basketball for the Magic" "Like you're a Magician or something?" "Magic is the name of our team, I'm hoping to be traded soon."

My first thought was, some friends of mine are all about the term "vag" short for the ladies anatomy, so Mag, short for Magic. It kinda works but not in print because ESPN insists on calling their magazine the Mag.

Next thought: The Orlando Tricks. To quote GOB from Arrested Development: Illusions, Michael. Tricks are something a whore does for money.

For that matter, the illusions works. Your thoughts....

You could go for the Orlando Panic. A quick reference to SVG.

honestly why do you guys hate the magic so much. its not like we have this bitter rivalry but everything that comes out of the bobcats fans mouth is negative. its amazing how many threads are magic suck threads. ive seen comments about how shitty orlando the city is, how shitty our name is, how shitty our new arena is, how shitty our mascot is, how shitty dwight howard is, how shitty vc is, how shitty magic fans are. im just amazed at how you guys can have so much hate when there is zero rivalry between the two clubs.

How about simply "The Team That Ended Our 2010 Playoff Run"?

Happy to help.

Maybe it's come about because of all the trolling some Magics fans seem intent to do on our boards?

Just a thought.

Or how about Orlando "The Team Formerly Known as the Eastern Conference Champs" Magic

has a good ring to it.
