Charlotte starts process to rebrand to Hornets

[Teagz]

Too similar to the old bobcats uni's imo. Bring back the thick pinstripes and a more modern font and we have a winner.

 

[dez]

I like em..
 
but Im sure the NBA will find a way to make em generic.

 

[Pugz]

i want a black and purple alt damnit!

 

[dez]

Hell yeah

PRetty pumped about this. As dez already clarified, this city is gonna be poppin' when they come back. I know a shit ton of people who were diehard Hornets fans growing up who now have no emotion for the Cats. Glad they can get their team back.

 

[dez]

It'll be just like the early-mid 90's when everyone was rocking Hornets gear..
 
Now if we could just re-build the old Hornets Nest arena...
 
This will lead to alot too, my pops works at the Ritz Carlton downtown, where all opposing teams stay when in town, and he asked a few players why Charlotte cant get anyone to sign with em, and the most constant answer is lack of a fan base...

I loved the old Hornets floor design.  Would be disappoint if they chose to go a different route.

Ain't making the switch until 2014-2015? How dumb. 

 

[buzzy]

that's only another season

I know lol. Don't see why it can't be done now though.

Hell yeah man ... that shit must suck playing in front of just a few thousand every night. It's mostly suits too who don't even give a shit about the team/game. Bobcats games are used as a good way for people to go and watch good opposing players/teams haha.

NBA's rules.  They need time to "transition".

There's a ton of shit that needs to be changed. Think about, everything Bobcats needs to be changed to Hornets, from the court they play on to the letter head on their letters.

I have yet to see a Bobcats fitted yet, in all my years in Charlotte
 
But there's a Hornets fitted everywhere you look lol
 
MJ will make that money back from ticket sales, merchandise in no time.

It really is weird.  I've seen so much more Pelicans stuff already, than I ever saw Hornets stuff.  I also know a number of people who have become Pelican fans but were never real big Hornets fans.  It's weird how much a brand means to some people.  I couldn't careless.
