On the Prowl.

The new Bob Johnson-owned NBA franchise unveiled their name, logo, and uniforms on Wednesday, and they’re the Charlotte Bobcats. Hmm…I dunno. I know Bobcats works well with the Carolina Panthers (who sport a very similar logo), but I much prefer Dragons or Flight to the chosen name. Then again, I still wish the Washington Wizards (ugh) had become the Washington Monument – I’m all for the singular team names.

  1. I don’t mean to come off as some kind of snobbish Northerner, but I just don’t think an area with a lot of Klan/Confederate history should go with the nickname “Dragons.”

    Maybe combined with a logo it would look better than it sounds.

  2. Y’know, that’s an excellent point…NC was never a huge Klan state, but nevertheless, it’s a connection you don’t want made. (Which is one of the other reasons I was always against the DC “Wizards”)
