Like the Sacramento and LA Kings, or the Arizona and St. Louis CardinalsWell, they kind of sort of still own the rights to the Oklahoma Wranglers identity. Check the USPTO website.

hartfordwhalers2k8 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 With the arrowhead logo (and historical logo of the guy in loincloth and headdress), one is hard-pressed to argue that it's not native american.Still, is there a fuss over it? Really? That's the one about which I've seen the least. If that's the best reason not to use Thunderbirds, they might as well order the jerseys now.I think the name is fine. But, I just don't think the league will allow it, however lame an excuse.You guys got it all wrong. This is what I think of when I hear Thunderbirds.

Cooleyvol Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 BTW, I ran "Oklahoma City" though another TESS search from the Trademark Office and didn't come up with anything new.My money's on the new website url having 'okc' instead of the full name of the city in it.

AceHawk447 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Barons should be the name...as for colors, I like Vegas Gold, White, and either Brick or Rust. [447][PS: Seattle should get ball back...and soon!!!] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeytonManningRocks Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Oklahoma City Twisters.Or they could name the team the Barons, because the city stole the team away like a baron.Of course if they were named the Barons, shouldn't they try and get Baron Davis to sign?

Linix129 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Thunderbirds are totally irrelevant to OKCMy vote is Twisters or Cyclones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
