| All of the names were pathetic.
Barons, Wind, Energy? Give me a break. Was T. Boone the head of the marketing team on this one? |

| That looks, and sounds like a MLS logo. Pretty cheesy to say the least. Once they discover that the only pro team in the entire dust bowl state that anyone cares about is the Sooners, they'll change it all up again as a marketing ploy. Face it, there is a reason Oklahoma has not had a plethora of pro sports team.

| well, Indian tribal names are off the table, all of the good wildlife names are off the table, "Tornadoes" or "Twisters" might be deemed too insensitive to the fragile psyches of victims of the storms, you couldn't call them the "Panhandlers" either, for obvious reasons. "Thunder" isn't bad, all things considered.
the "North Texas Outlaws" has a ring to it though and reflects the inevitable thuggery that seems to accompany an NBA franchise.

Not that Thunder is a good name. Sounds like an Arena Football Team.

| | smh | Well, OKC. Welcome. I hope you lose every game and a few mill along the way as you end up packing up and sending the franchise back to Seattle where it rightfully belongs.
OKC Thunder, die a fiery death. |
