    I don't particularly care for it, but it is better than any of the apparent finalists. Your idea of Drillers though was the mack daddy wiener, that should have been it.

    I'm starting to think it's not going to be thunder.

    If so, it'll have been the head-fake to end all head-fakes...

    Trust me, it's going to be Thunder. I work in Leadership Sq where their office is located and I saw them bringing in boxes with OKC thunder on the side.

    It's possible they could try and trick us, but I doubt it. Heck, they've had forever to get the name and colors out. I think the organization has done a **** poor job so far.

    The fact they choose Thunder because they could make some sound at the beginning of the game is stupid, just as their choice of colors - orange, but not too orange or too red for the sunset...God! this is a sports team not some flag symbolism...

    "I'm an LA Laker, oooh, I'm skeered with all that thunder and noise..."

    Now that could work if they played out doors and saw some April or May supercells bearing down on them...
    Everything progressives do is aimed at weakening democracy, capitalism and the social and cultural institutions that support those things...... They are about subjugating people and being a ruling class.

    Maybe for some people, but I doubt I'm ever going to like it. My dislike may grow into tolerance, but the logo certainly doesn't help.


    "Thunder" just isn't a major league name.
    at this point in the process, I can only assume it was a typo and they meant to say "cram"...

    I've been paying attention to a lot of other big league nicknames lately, and Thunder isn't anywhere near the worst. Angels? It doesn't get any gheyer than that.

    Re: How do you llike OKC Thunder for our NBA team name ???

    Yeah, I agree. This whole episode has made me realize just how many crappy names and logos there are in major league sports, overall. Gives credibility to the "history and winning makes the name/logo cool" school of thought. But I also agree with the people who say we shouldn't be shooting for "way better than the bottom 10% of sports team nicknames/logos."
    Well, crap.

    Oh, don't get me wrong, the Thunder logo actually is the worst one out there.

    Heck, you're not gonna catch me defending it. Wearing it maybe, but not defending it.

    Look at all the generic names we've seen the last few years: Thunder, Titans, Texans, Bobcats, Panthers, Jaguars - a cornucopia of bland and vanilla nicknames. I'm starting to think it's deliberate.

    Yea, Texans? Come on. Bobcats? You're right, generic.
