If Anthony Davis stays injured, they might have to change it to the Albatrosses.

Maybe Minnesota can "Lakers" back from L.A.

heh, oops. Yep Country Day’s football team is called The Daisies. I remember face palming when my brother’s team, the Saint Martin Saints was defeated by them...

Re your post 17, thanks. I didn’t know that the Pelicans went back that far. All I can say with certitude is that as a kid I was a fan of the Birmingham Barons and the New Orleans Pelicans played the Barons in the same league, the Southern League.

Maybe they should call themselves the New Orleans Mormon Tabernacle Choir until Utah gives them their name back?

Funny!
