It sounds like a WNBA team.

I hope the PR firms can come up with something tough sounding, while still regional. I do like Brass (which I voted for in this pole), but I wouldn't whine too bad if Voodoo ended up being it.

The pelicans is way too wimpy. Krewe has a ring to it, but it seems too vague, and also reminds me of Columbus Crew soccer team.

My thought is the Reapers. Therefore you could tie in the voodoo elements/ghostly things N.O. is known for and come up with some fearsome jerseys.

Now THAT name is dope as hell....So now I like VooDoo & Reapers LOL

Reapers.

Holy crap, that is an awesome one. Works on a lot of levels too. AND I'm a Mass Effect fan? Could have the announcer go "ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL" every time someone steals the rock!

The wins would come in 3 different colors.

Reapers.

Yeah.

YEAH.

I love it.

The only good thing about being named the Reapers is that the team abbrev. NOR would now make sense... that's about it. Ohhh... and we'd likely have some black incorporated.

And it has a rough SOA reference...:victory:

I think Breakers and Corsairs are good, IF Dub's color combos are used. Brass sounds too much like Jazz, Krewe sounded good at first, but the more I see it, the less I like it. Voodoo would be a cool concept, but it's already in use, and the name might hurt sales. I like Reapers, and I think Soul has a cool sound to it.

I'm telling you...Knights is the best name I've heard...Knights are manly, they protect and kill, whereas Brass and Krewe sound like we are setting up for Mardi Gras, cmon guys wake up! Asif Benson will choose them

Demps would have to release a statement after each game stating how we won since no one would understand.

I keep seeing this name but I have NO idea what that means....also why do you think the VooDoo name would hurt sales? Do you think that many fans already have AFL VooDoo apparel? It could sell IMO just change up the color scheme a little.

Man, the more I think about Reapers. The more I like it.

Thats what I'm saying. It rolls of the tounge and has that intimidation factor. I think the logo could be really dope if done right.

"I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite basketball team on the Citadel"


Yeah, I like Reapers. I'm in.

Don't even need to show the Grim Reaper. Just show a bony hand clutching a scythe in the logo.

Wonder if BugDub could make a concept for us to see how it would look

Yeah man, I'm with you on this. The Knights has the best potential out of the names on here. The Knights and the Saints would go great together even, both religious and prestigious names. We have a ton of french/royalty cultural connections. The fleur de lis the PERFECT symbol for the Knights. The Knights protect the King's COURT. Louisiana is named after a french king, King Louis. We could even throw King Rex in there. Our mascot's name could be the Cajun Crusader! That is awesome! You can't mess it up! lol

Reapers, Knights, or VooDoo....I'm good with either one of those. Great idea for the mascot by the way.

What about a Neo-Knight?

ArcAngels is just as insulting as the latter.

Add Reapers to poll.
