Seriously they need the name and colours back...that team's identity right now is just lost.

As for NO, it's obviously going to be linked to the culture....if not maybe the New Orleans Knights, Voodoo was already done by an unsuccessful arean football team.


Not so sure about knights when there are kings already. Call it Hurricanes or something.

Owner is an idiot if he picks anything else.


So nobody else like Jambalayas?


What player is going to want to be associated with a type of food except Oliver Miller? Would you want the Raptors to change their name to Toronto Tuna Casseroles?

Can't we have 2 NBA teams with "Jazz" in their name?
CFL did it with Rough Riders and Roughriders.

So you have the Utah Jazz and the New Orleans Jaz.
