I didn't think they could make a logo of a Pelican badass. But, they did. That's pretty nice.

This video is great. It shows that a name should mean something and explains the significance. My hats off to Tom Benson! Great Job!

Now hopefully Jordan realizes if we go back to the Hornets our merch is going to fly through the roof.

The Hornets was an identity for the whole state of North Carolina. Watching this video makes me kinda mad that were the bobJOHNSONcats and he's not even the owner anymore. Lets get our identity back.


BRING BACK THE BUZZ!

Bobcats just released the following statement.

“We are aware of the impending change regarding the team nickname in New Orleans. We are currently in contact with the NBA and conducting our own due diligence relative to this matter. We will not have any further comment until we have completed this process.”

my only problem is that the color scheme is almost identical to the Hawks. I think the logo looks good though.

Good find. So basically that means there looking into it right?

from the video link:

"Pelicans have existed on Earth for over 30 million years and have been revered throughout history from Egypt to Australia and all of Christendom. Kings and Queens have often used pelicans as symbols in their heraldry."
