The name was also part of my youth and I had season tickets but I'm going to do my part to keep the team in Charlotte. I don't understand the fairweathery (if you can say) of fans in North Carolina.

WE WANT HORNETS GOD DAMMIT

[John Morgan]

For those of you that haven't heard, the 'Cats released a new survey to season ticket holders last night. It pertains directly to the potential rebrand. As you'll see in the image (should you care to look closer), it casts serious doubt onto the idea that the the Hornets "won't happen" (although, as someone mentioned earlier, this thread's provocative title and nebulous content did get peoples' attention, so kudos, Zod )

As for the other "choices"...mere placeholders. They're the same choices we had when the 'Cats were named. Do you honestly think they go to this extent and choose something OTHER than 'Hornets'?!?

Me neither.

umm not sure where u got this. But I seriously doubt the bobcats would be using bringbackthebuzz.com on anything they hand out. nice try though.

[John Morgan]

Ha, yeah...I've offered them 'We Beelieve' letterhead, but for some reason, they keep rejecting it...

This is a combination of the three most pertinent questions on the survey. The Hornets stuff...yeah, that's all me. Sorry I wasn't clear about that; I thought it was pretty implicit. The questions, however, are screenshots taken directly from the actual survey.

The image is a screen capture that was included in an article for bringbackthebuzz.com. All the text below Hugo was added by them.

This is a total fabrication by those losers at Bring Back The Buzz & We- Beelieve. There is no way the team would send out a second survey regarding a name change. I don't Beelieve it for a second.

This is just some kind of fancy computer trickeration.

Zod and King T said it wasn't going to happen and nothing and I mean nothing, not even Michael Jordan himself making a name change announcement at the new Hive will ever convince me otherwise... Even if the team wears Hornets uniforms next year, I will not beelieve it.

Here are tweets with screen shots of all the questions on the survey and you can clearly see that the team is trying to keep the Bobcats name by how often you see the name show up in the survey.

Flight sounds like a f*cking WNBA team.

I want the hornets name back but I'd be willing to take anything to help us forget about that bigot and shitstain Bob Johnson.

[CCS]

I find it hilarious that so many people are shitting on this movement and saying that it will never happen. They're obviously at LEAST contemplating a name change. I'm personally hoping that they become the Hornets again and the league gives them the #1 pick to help relaunch the team.

[King Taharqa]

Its been a calender year since bringbackthebuzz first came to this board. Still no name change, but they did get the Hornets kicked out of the league.

Charlotte remains Bobcat Country and Bob Johnsons team and legacy still represent Charlotte nationwide. All that wasted energy.

[John Morgan]

Why, King, do you suppose the 'Cats are surveying season ticket holders (for the second time in a month), using language such as "assume the Bobcats were to change their nickname"? Not once, but TWICE?

I know, I know. Don't feed the trolls. But it's been so long, and I feel bad for forgetting our anniversary

A survey is a survey. It really doesnt mean much.

John I just flew back from Houston Texas 2 days ago. I was out there for 4 days and do you know not once did I see or hear anyone bitching about "getting the Oilers name back". The Texans are just now experiencing success after sucking their first 7-8 years but you would never know it by how rabid they are out there about them. Rockets aint been in the NBA playoffs in a few years, but the fans still support em and rep em everywhere I went out there. I wish our fans and city had half the heart of those guys. It really puts in perspective how shitty a sports town this is, and what we prioritize. "Name changes" over "unconditional support".
