Name Change?

[Panthers128]

Change the name to Charlotte Jumpmen. Our logo is the Michael Jordan logo.

I think they could market the heck out of the Charlotte Knights. So I'm on board for that name. However, I wouldnt be surprised to see the following:

The Charlotte Get R Done's

The Charlotte Rams (UNC thing)

The Charlotte Panthers (let the lawsuits begin)

[Hotsauce]

How about the Carolina White Nights?

[Hugor Hill]

The Charlotte Gamblers

Charlotte Dealers

Charlotte Mikecats

Charlotte Aircats

Charlotte Jordans

Charlotte Mafiagonnagetyouifyoudontpayus

ironically, Charlotte Flight seems to fit with Jordan but personally, and I am not a Bobcats fan as they are my 3 fav team, but the name has grown on me over the years. just some minor tweakin' needs to be done. New Logo or an updated one.

I don't see whats so wrong w/ Bobcats? And I feel bad for all the people that have bought Bobcats gear, what are they supposed to do? That's tons of money that's pretty much gone down the drain. I mean imagine if the Panthers did that, and you had to buy all new stuff?

Charlotte Bankrolls

Charlotte Monies

Charlotte Skyscrapers

Charlotte Skywalkers

Charlotte Queens

Charlotte Bishops

Charlotte Pawns

Charlotte Air

Charlotte Independence

some of those suggestions are a joke, some could potentially work i suppose. do you think Jordan would change the name from Charlotte to Carolina? Changing it to the Carolina xxxxx would open up a whole slew of team name potential.

Put me in the camp with keeping the Bobcats name, colors, etc.. just need a new logo.

Also, a 3rd jersey!

He'd have to go with the Flight because that actually was the favorite in the city vote if I remember correctly. Plus, it fits almost too perfectly with the state history and MJ.

double post...

Also, it would really benefit the overall appeal within the city if they completely revamped the franchise. Better sooner than later given the thin and rough history of the team so far.

My ideas:

ideal: Charlotte Flight

possible: Charlotte Royals

a stretch: Crown City Blues

im really digging the charlotte flights with the wright bros. to team Jordan shoes, poo def. makes sense... i also wouldnt mind the knights, but if itll change to another feline might as well keep it the bobcats and change the logo and lightn up on the orange.

The Bobcats name is cursed! Being named after a horrible owner is not good. We need a name change.

Also, imagine the marketing possibilities with the NBA, Nike, hell the Carolinas in general. They could also make a pretty sick logo from it. With the current lack of city identity in C-town, which is completely opposite to the situation in 1988, they should try to appeal to the Carolinas in general much like the Panthers have done. They could play off of the Jordan era, the Wright Brothers, and the Carolina Blue sky soo well.

Hell even the Flyers and the Blues work just as well.

If you were really God you would make him change it. Cmon man, make Bob and Mike change it. We're waiting.

I can live with a new logo. The name is fine with me now.

There should be all time sports rule that no Pro team should have a mascot name NOT ending in an S. Heat might be the lone exception.
