ewwwwwww

[Spurtacus]

Figures they would pick Thunder. Bandits would have been better.

[T Park]

God thats sooooo minor league.

[IronMexican]

It sounds so D-league to me.

[BiZNicK]

Should have just gone with Thundercats...might as well

[braeden0613]

Barons was way better...a 6 year old could come up with thunder.

[bdictjames]

At least that's another name to the list of teams that don't have s to end it. Utah, Miami and Orlando, now OKC

[Biggems]

Oklahoma City Bison doesnt end in S and it can be singular or plural

:lmao

[Ill Cosby]

sounds like a WNBA team...worst than the Bobcats

[manufor3]

what a horrible name

[dknights411]

Barons was way better...a 6 year old could come up with thunder.

You know, considering all those "Name the Team" contests, a 6 year old probably DID come up with that!

[Findog]

Bandits, Vultures or Bombers would've been so much more appropriate.

[T Park]

Barons was way better...a 6 year old could come up with thunder.

Yeah I agree, at first I wasn't too hot on Barons, but after a while it made sense and was a really great way to put roots down in OKC for the team and the fans.

Thunder?

Christ will the owner wrestle a bear at halftime during the season?

Free Corndogs if they break 125?

[Borosai]

God that name sucks.

[Findog]

Oklahoma City Meth Teeth would also have been geographically appropriate

[InRareForm]

Names are almost always blasted initially but then get accepted pretty easily.

Just look around the league, there are some stupid team names out there.

[Extra Stout]

This name works great because it rhymes with blunder and "The Oklahoma City Blunder" is a fitting title for this entire episode.

[I. Hustle]

I would have said the trailers and called the arena the trailer park.

Here's the logo.

Hmm...looks like OKC just got its hands on Windows 95 and did some amazing things with the paintbrush program.

[SAtown]

omfg that's terrible.

Worst team names in the NBA: 1) Thunder, 2) Wizards, 3) Bobcats

Okc Fagles

[dallaskd]

[ShoogarBear]

Let's all take a wild guess what's going to be played over the PA system.

Personally, I was thinking that having a purple Canadian team called the Raptors was MUCH cooler.

"Hey, maybe we can take a name from the next really cool movie that comes up with its own name in it and make it our own and after a few years people will completely forget that it wasn't even a name before the movie came out."

[Obstructed_View]

That fat guy in the "thunder" t shirt at Mavericks games is gonna have to move.

[Indazone]

man that is one horrible name and logo.

They would have had better luck as the Thundercats.

Then before every game you could have heard the announcer say.

And now...introducing your Oklahomaaaaaa Citttttyyyyyyyyy


Thunder...

Thunder......

Thundercats....................................... ................


Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooo!!!

[Avitus1]

That is the worst name I've ever head. Anything would of been better then that.. even the Barons. Though when you think about the people in Ok its not to surprising they'd agree to a name like this.

[Solid D]

:rollin

[WildcardManu]

weak

[Indazone]

How do you make a logo for Thunder? A dark cloud with a lightning bolt coming out of it? LOL LAME!

Raptors yeah that was a cool name. Even cooler since they are purple after Barney the Great Purple One. LOL

[dknights411]

You know, despite the movie connection, that was one of my personal favorite hockey logos.

FYI, they overhauled their look a couple of seasons ago. now, they're simply the Ducks.

Well it wouldn't be the first NBA team whose logo has little to do with their nickname. Detroit, New York, Indiana, and both Los Angeles teams for example.

[Indazone]

You know..maybe Thor God of Thunder would be good. They can have a big blonde Viking with the mythical hammer Mjolnir. Then the PA system can blast out a big Thunderclap!

[MajorMike]

If you haven't been smart enuff to figure it out yet, that is not any sort of real logo. That is someone on the net making a stab at what they think.

Supposedly the official logo will be the head of a Bison (an American Buffalo for those less educated) and the idea is the thunder of hooves.

Consequently the cheerleaders will all have camel toes.

[MajorMike]

And for those same people that thought that was a real logo... I was kidding about the camel toes part.

Who's ready to kick some ass? WOOO go Thunder!

By the beard of Odin the Allfather, I say thee TIMEOUT!

[jack sommerset]

I saw this thread for awhile and never opened it up, I figured it was some minor league team report or something. And to my surprise.........

[emo serb]

well, we can atleast hope that they have better colors. i hated the sonics colors, always thought they were ugly.

[Findog]

Indiana Pacers and Detroit Pistons are geographically appropriate.

[monosylab1k]

So is New York :lmao where did that dumbass get his geographically incorrect info?
