    ...but I know the employees of the organization participated in a poll that included about 25 names. I'll list what I can remember and ask my source about it again:

    Thundercats
    Bobcats
    Dragons
    Spirit
    Flight
    Cougars

    'Great Thunderballs' would be redundant.

    Thundercats-Sound too much like the name for a CBA/Minor League Hockey Teams

    Bobcats-Sounds like the mascot for an elementary school


    Dragons-Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, not bad . .


    Spirit-Grrrrrrrrrr, didn't we say no to this 15+ years ago :rolleyes: :rolleyes: . . .


    Flight-ZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz :rolleyes: :rolleyes: . .


    Cougars-Yeah, this sounds right . . Nod back to the ABA days . . . . When can I start buying merchandise . . .


    ANOTHER TIP: Months ago, there was an article on the front page of the sports section on a guy named __________ (forgot his name :( :( . . . ). He designs fine expensive suits for many movie stars/athletes . . rumor has it he is going to design the new uniforms for the team . .

    SDS, I would have to agree with you, Dragons and Cougars are about the only 2 I like from that list.
