WWLS the Sports Animal announced yesterday that they are the flagship station of the still un-named OKC NBA team. Just announced on air that sometime today a press conference from Tulsa will be about a D-League decision, most likely affecting the Tulsa 66rs. That only makes since.

How about naming them the "Clay Pigeons", in honor of team owner millionaire Clay Bennett??

Team Taylor, I know its not Tulsa's team but she will want to be Governor some day. It will be easier to just name it that way now instead of her buying the team and having to rename it.

NBA Hints At Oklahoma City Team's Name Posted: Aug 6, 2008 02:19 PM CDT Updated: Aug 6, 2008 03:59 PM CDT The page "www.nba.com/thunder" is shown in the left corner when a user places their cursor over Oklahoma City in a Wednesday afternoon screen grab of the NBA's web site. OKLAHOMA CITY - When the NBA posted the 2008-09 season schedule, they may have revealed a clue to the long-anticipated naming of Oklahoma City's new franchise.
On Wednesday afternoon, users who clicked on Oklahoma City on the schedule page were directed to www.nba.com/thunder. The link pulled up a "page not found" message.
The page http://www.nba.com/schedules/?team=thunder also directed users to the SuperSonics results from last season. Later Wednesday afternoon the page was change to read "Oklahoma City Thunder Schedule."
Team spokesman Dan Mahoney said the link was a glitch on the NBA's site and the team had notified the NBA of the mistake.
Thunder was one of the six names the NBA registered as trademarks for the team earlier this month.
The Oklahoma City Bison, Barons, Wind, Energy, Marshalls and Thunder were registered, according to the United States Patent and Trademark Office database. The names were registered on July 21.

Uh, yeah...[8D] My meaning was 'I'm neutral'. Never said I was a mensa. I always get those two confused. [:O]

It's possible I'm ambiguously ambivalent, but I'm not sure. The reason the logo is crap is that it could say anything above the logo. It could say "Oklahoma City Widgets" and the logo still fits. It has nothing to do with the team name at all. Here's a high res version for anyone who is bored and has photoshop:
