Looks like they may push a rebrand though this offseason

I also heard a rumor that Bob Johnson called and advised Tom Benson that he should consider rebranding the Hornets into the......... TOMCATS

I wonder if they are taking into account Shinn's feelings during the rebrand.

It's Benson's team let him do what he wants....same with MJ (until he sells it)

FYI Shinn has went on record saying moving the team from Charlotte was a mistake.

He also is a born again christian now since his prostate cancer.

Shinn could of ran for mayor when he brought the team to Charlotte and probably won. It ended very poorly with him here and he should serve as an example for major business people bringing their services here of how quickly things can change. He was a helluva lot worse than Bob Johnson, but Johnson started out on the wrong foot here and was never able to recover. At least Bob was smart enough to jump ship from the titanic.

We all make mistakes and no one is perfect. Glad to hear Shinn is doing okay and if he really wanted to mend some fences here he should help with the Hornets rebrand. At least be an advocate of it.

I get what your saying, but I seriously doubt Shinn advocating for a name change could do anything but hurt the chances of it happening.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      By d-dave · Posted

      According to the talking heads of the sports world, this is a pretty meh QB class.  Sanders and Ward are the only two with first round buzz, but the rest are blah.  Take that for what you will. Let's see how Bryce does in year three.  That's just where we are.  Patience is the key here.  Players need time to develop.  They can't develop if they don't play.  Bryce has made some really good throws, but he doesn't look like CJ Stroud.  That's going to be his point of comparison the rest of their careers.  The ball doesn't explode off Bryce's hand, it's not a cannon ball shot out of a cannon.  He's not going to break a 70 yard run.   Bryce is going to have to continue to make good throws and make plays.  Part of that is going to depend on the play calls.  Part of it is based on the skill players.  A couple drops picked up yesterday and it's a win and Bryce throws 1-2 more TDs.  A completely different story. It's been a crazy year indeed.  I just want to see Bryce continue to develop.  To see XL become more consistent.  To see JT fully recover (not play this season if he's not healthy).  I want to see Coker continue to make plays.  I'd love to see Brooks get more touches and Chubba continue to hammer defenses. Then this approaching offseason, let's go back to the D and work on fixing it.

      Prime is already gone boss.  Nothing left for team Sanders in college football.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By KatsAzz · Posted

      Justin Fields’ fifth-year option was declined by the Steelers in April. Without a new contract, he will be a free agent in March. I am pulling for Bryce Young to look good the rest of the season, but if he doesn't, how many of you would be on board for the Panthers to try signing Justin Fields?
