Well…the owners name is Bob…he likes cats…
The Charlotte Bobcats!
You heard it here first folks.
A tie in with Panthers as well perhaps?
What are the colors?
Orange is apparently the dominant color.
“Dragons” and “Flight” were apparently the runner-ups. I could have lived with “Dragons,” but “Flight”? Holy shit, what a dumb name.
“Flight’s” pretty bad, all right, but not quite as bad as what they almost called the Hornets: the “Charlotte Spirit”. Yech.
They should’ve fought to keep the Hornets name from moving with the team.
Obviously, the team should have been named the “Swebb.”
They haven’t chosen yet, right?
But with the limited choice of Bobcats, Dragons and Flight, I’ll take The Charlotte Dragons as the coolest.
However, they should’ve kept Hornets… and New Orleans could’ve taken their Jazz back from Utah, whilst Utah should be picking a new team name…
Perhaps the Utah Bobcats? 
Why oh why hasn’t the name “Assassins” been used yet? It was the name of my cousin’s basketball team and I think it’s great.
Actualy, the Charlotte Spiders might’ve been good. Or is that taken?
AlphaWolf, I think they mainy eschew violent-sounding names, because they don’t want the wee fans associating their sports heroes with mayhem. Kinda why the Washington Bullets became the Washington Wizards in the NBA.
