The_Admiral Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 They shouldn't be worried about what to do with the first part of their name, they should focus on doing something about the second part."Nets"? Seriously? Why not name them the New York Backboards? Or New York Balls? Or New York Rims? It's ridiculous, even by pro-sports standards where things don't always have to make sense.Brooklyn Knights would be awesome on so many different levels. New York Anything would work too.New York Anything sounds like it could be a good movie. I dunno. I don't mind Nets because I like the idea of Mets/Jets/Nets harmony among the New York B-Teams. It's short and snappy.

They could have uniforms with sublimated animals and goldfish all over them, and each player could walk their actual pet onto the court during pre game intros.

BBTV Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 New York Cadettes. No, not because their logo is an army cadette, but because it's a silhouette of this stupid (but ridiculously hot) whore I know with that last name.EDIT: OK, that's two syllables, so how bout the New York Bets, and a make a logo out of Pete Rose.

Lights Out Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I'll see you "Reds" and "Blues" (and man, no way would those lame names be acceptible for a professional American team)The Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Blues would disagree with you on that point.

All were named in reference to British General Charles Cornwallis' comment that Charlotte was "a veritable hornet's nest of rebellion" during the American Revolutionary War.
