    Thats the way this place rolls sometimes. Its just like The Sports Animals Dominant Duo being the #1 rated sports program in the nation yet everyone on here hates the Sports Animal?

    I thought Outlaws would be better, but at least we have a team.

    Is a lightning bolt going to be the logo? I just hope they don't scew up the colors!! Hopefully, we black/gold.

    Thunder screams AF2. I could see the Yard Dawgs playing the Thunder. Barons, Outlaws, and Thunderbirds all much better options

    Thunder screams AF2 but outlaws and thunderbird dont? Some of you guys just cant be pleased. What else would we be, wompas cats, Bounty hunters, eagle claws? Thunder is marketable and it isnt corny, the reaction on ESPN radio lastnite wasnt bad

    To the nielson ratings or whomever does the radio ratings, it is the only sports show that is even in the top 50 and is # 1 in the country obviously for sports shows. Hate or love Al and Jim, they bring in ratings

    Just an FYI, there's nothing new in TESS (the US Trademark Office's searchable database) searching on either "Oklahoma City" or "The Professional Basketball Club". In an interesting twist, however, the pair of "Oklahoma City Supersonics" listings that appeared on the system last week (filed July 8) have now been abandoned as of July 15.

    Today's paper says blue and silver.

    I would have liked OKC Black Gold--Have a guy dressed up in an oil well running around would have been pretty cool.

    Blue & silver? Are they trying to piggy-back off of another team's success with that combo?

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

    For all the doubt surrounding this franchise (small fanbase, etc.) I would think they would try to pick a really great name in order to sell lots of apparel and kind of hedge their bet if they tank on the floor and ticket sales fall off. I really don't think anybody outside of central Oklahoma/Tulsa will buy a single thing with OKC Thunder on it. Had they gone with Outlaws, Copperheads, or anything of that nature I think they could have had a better shot at returning a profit when things get tough. Think of the KC Chiefs or the Dallas Cowboys, if they had been named the KC Corn or the Dallas Sunshine would anybody outside of KC or Dallas really adopt them as their team?

    I believe those ratings are based on per capita. Could be wrong but that is what I was lead to believe.

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

    In 16 days, the team got 16,000+ individual season ticket requests. Most of these were from people who want two and more tickets. It appears ticket demand won't be a problem, at least for the time being.

    During season one, they will almost assuredly be a top five team in attendance, limited only by the size of the building as it compares to, for instance, the Palace at Auburn Hills.
    Well, crap.

    I just checked the latest ratings and stand corrected, thanks.

    (and yes, ratings are as a percentage of all listeners)

    I'm still laughing though.
