raysfan24 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Myrtle Beach is no New Orleans. Please keep it the Pelicans. They have one of the best identities in professional baseball IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelayedPenalty Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 So they're mad that another team is using "their" name? I wasn't aware there was a 1 team limit on nicknames. Someone inform the Giants, Jets, Cardinals, Rangers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aci Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 It's just an amusing promotion; I can't see them actually changing their name. Most of the stuff they have listed is pretty funny, but I have to cry foul at "Mardi Gras Mondays"... umm... Mardi means Tuesday...

GeauxColonels Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 They can. And probably will. They're just looking for a little press.Exactly. Especially since they're dragging the Saints, LSU, UL-Lafayette and the arena league team into this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerslionspistonshabs Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Perfect solution= they take Bobcats after Charlotte reclaims Hornets. While we're at it, have Memphis take on Kings.#totalsarcasmAnd I get it....'cry foul'...Pelicans...bird...fowl....get it? get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfect Zero Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Greenberg is a great promoter, and it shows with this going as far up the chain as Yahoo news. I hope they keep everything the same; I really like their colors and uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 The New Orleans Pelicans should have copied the Myrtle Beach pelican in their logo. That thing looks awesome. Hopefully this is all just a joke, cause the Myrtle Beach Pelicans have a great identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justin23iu Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I can't tell you how happy it makes me that our press release has its own topic here. I work in the front office for the Pelicans...yes, it is a very tongue-in-cheek joke. We like to have fun.NBA: "Aww, isn't that cute? They think they're a sports franchise..."It's so cute that our ballpark was just named the 19th best stadium experience in the country in 2012 by Stadium Journey magazine. That's all sports, major league, minor league, college...you name it. But thanks for the input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
