    Grey is a really dicey colour choice, particularly for a small-market team.

    Blue and black (eg Inter Milan) would be better.

    It looks like you and I finally agree on something. I wasn't exactly thrilled with Krewe until Pelicans became a player in the situation. Now I'd breathe a sigh of relief if Krewe, Brass, Spirit, Angels, Knights, Clowns, Poodles, or Dry Paint is announced as the new team name.
    Old fan. Tired fan. I want to believe.

    But where you like rabidly insulting Pelicans, I would just accept the name without problem.

    If you can run out with the words Texans on your jersey, then nothing is off limits. Still...I'm down with the Krewe.

    PELICANS! I endorse this 100%

    I think after this thread, i officially prefer the Krewe.

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    I still definitely prefer Krewe, Brass, and some of the others over Pelicans. But... out of my hands!

    I prefer Pelicans over Krewe, but maybe Brass over Pelicans. But Brass is too much like Jazz. We need to be more original.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    God knows I would love to get Jazz back, but it won't happen. I could think of many terrible names that are much worse than Pelicans. It may not be the best, but it's something unique to this region and from a marketing perspective you can do a lot with it.

    I'm still choosing Voodoo over Brass, Brass over Pelicans, and Pelicans over Krewe, but at the end of the day I'll be satisfied with whatever name it is, as long as it isn't the New Orleans Buttchompers or the New Orleans Hornets.

    Not true. You're thinking of Mecom's -- the first owner -- initial choice for colors for the team. He wanted blue and gold, but the NFL ruled that it was too close to the San Diego Chargers.

    As a UNC fan from NC I'm partial to a light blue color. I also think it would look great as an NBA scheme.

    No, absolutely true. Benson was considering a change to colors similar to UCLA colors for the team but was talked out of it.
