Either the Barons, Bison, Energy, Marshalls, Thunder, or Wind.




They didn't decide on Thunder as previously reported, obviously.

Oklahoma City Barons or Oklahoma City Marshalls are the only two that don't sound lame or like a WNBA name, but they're horribly outdated.

The Oklahome City Bison? Are you serious?

If it's really down to those 6, then OKC is already screwed.

I sorta like Barons and think it fits the situation. The robber barons of the 19th/20th century would totally approve of Clay Bennett's actions.

The other five are lame. Bison, Energy, Marshalls, Thunder, and Wind? That sounds like the af2 South or something.

My pick: Tornadoes. They can play the storm siren in the arena after defensive stops.

Yeah, no names not ending with "S". Dex is right, those names are too WNBA-ish.

So if SA goes up there and wins in a game would the headline read "Spurs break Wind on road?"

Wind and Energy are by far the stupidest.

So it will be one of those two.

Barons is the only halfway decent name.

They should go with KFC Bowls, that franchise hasn't existed for a month and it's an utter failure. At least they get sponsorship money.

The only logical nickname choice for an Oklahoma team is Sooners. Too bad that's already taken.

LMAO @ "Wind" and "Energy".

I can just see the stupid jokes about the Energy playing with or without energy on any given night.

All of them are stupid.

Bombers is still the best one--it just rolls off the tongue.

how about

OC Butt Wind
OC Butt Thunder

i actually like the Bison.....it ties into our Native American history which is rich in Oklahoma. It gives them an instant mascot as well.....they can call him Boomer the Bison.

Some names I wish would have made the cut
OC Outlaws
OC Cyclones

I like the Barons name.

I assume its from the days of the oil boom and a "Oil Baron" so to speak?

You are begging for a lame team with names like those.
Sound like names for a little league squad.

Poor Oklahoma people.

Barons and Marshalls are the only ones that have any dignity attached to it

The rest sound like Rec League teams
