i can come up with 10-20 million reasons to keep the name the same, and its called other people's belongings

i'm sure everyone here will support the hornets rebrand the same way they've supported Jordan as owner and Silas as coach. you wanted them until you got them and now you don't give a poo and are ready to run them out of town.

and all of you lack the cognizance to realize it.

Is there any actual news about a name change or are people still having the same redundant argument?

Why would racist hicks like Bob Johnson? The richest black man in America is the devil to them. Racist white people can hold a grudge with blacks for decades. Just look at this thread, look at how they come at me, their hate is their culture.It hasnt diminished in 8 years. 8 YEARS!!! But they forgave George for raping that girl a long time ago. Their hate for a rich black man who is an upstanding citizen and internationally respected, supercedes their disgust for white people who hurt other white people. A white felon gets more love in Charlotte.

You are a sad, delusional person. Shinn was a terrible owner but he has nothing to do with the Hornets anymore, and you would be hard pressed to find a sports fan in the Charlotte area that actually likes George Shinn. Bob Johnson was a terrible owner too, he made bad business decisions that pushed some fans away, like not putting them on a local channel where people could actually watch them play.

Jordan's just "another black guy" now since he hasnt changed the name yet. He served his purpose, which was replacing Bob. They giving him that same Bob Johnson "the black owner is a bumbling idiot" treatment now. Screw Jordan, Cho is the savior! Then they go to the Panther forum and blow Hurney and JR as geniuses. Nevermind Panthers been outta the playoffs longer than the Bobs and have been a losing team much longer. LMAO.

Pay attention Cam Newton! This will be you in a year or so if we continue to struggle. It'll be like last year never happened. They will throw you under the bus too homie. There is no loyalty here, unless you're a local white guy.

CCS- the latest is that NBA Deputy Commish Adam Silver was in town last Thursday to meet with Michael Jordan.

Silver was here to discuss with MJ, among other things bringing back the Hornets name to Charlotte. Silver said changing New Orleans name and bringing back the Hornets name to Charlotte could be a "win-win" for both cities.

Silver also said it would not take as long as some are predicting to rebrand Charlotte into the Hornets because the NBA already owned all the rights.

Looks like it's going to happen. The question is when- not if

The Bobcats have not commented publicly or shown any interest in a name change.

The NO Hornets since not being able to retain the Jazz name havent spoken publicly about rebranding. Their players and fans are moving on as the Hornets.

end of story.

Story's not over yet, no matter how much you want it to be.

So now you're putting down my culture and my race?

No, Im telling you, Charlotte is for white people only and should only be repped by such. Blacks have never done nothing for this city. Thats why its such a crime our team could be named after a rich black person who paid for it. The African American Cultural Center should be rebranded into a Hornets Nest Rebellion Museum. MLK Blvd should be rebranded into Bull Connor Blvd. Then it'll truly feel like ours. Teach your kids to hold a grudge with blacks when they make gains in society. Teach them thats their demise and not a benefit to our community. Teach them all the things black people own or create really belongs to them. It is their manifest destiny!

You need counseling.
