I will yell you that the main reason the post was not out Tuesday or Wednesday was that I was setting up for Hornets247 that will start to see the light of day in a week or two. Let's not chicken count yet, but it should be good.

Don't yell at me friend. :crytear:

The post is written, awaiting some calls to come back, proof, maybe a little more research.

There's not much that has not been said, but getting it out with correct info (there has been misinformation on this board) is nore important (to me) than getting it out nownownow when much of it is already public.

Post up tomorrow regardless. It'd be today if it wasn't a game day. Don't expect some secret knowledge about the 'truth'. We don't have it at this time and don't plan on getting it.

Yea that's understandable. I just saw the tweet about later in the day and only asked about it in case I missed it. Cheers and Thanks for the work.


PS. Hopefully the misinformation, and I think it is, Is that people are assuming Pelicans is a done deal. Seemed like more of an educated guess from the tweets.

Sounds too much like the Warriors.

So who grabbed PelicansReport.com or Pelicans247?

In reference to whether or not there is a such thing as a "basketball name":

What kind of riot? A baseball one or a basketball one? Because I don't think there is a such thing as a "baseball" or "basketball riot" but I'm listening.

Is there a way to be the Pelicans without being the Pelicans? Like maybe the Long Bills or the Mandibles.

Oh?

I think it would be cool if the mascot ends up being a pelican.

Doesn't count because Pistons is an untimidating name and Pacers doesn't make any sense, Pace comes from New York City.
