This was too weak for a rant, but…

The name of the new WNBA team in San Antonio (formerly the Utah Starzz) will be called…

The San Antonio Silver Stars.

Huh? What do y’all think of my hometown team’s name? Personally, I don’t think I like it now, but it may grow on me. Who knows?

Not too bad. I find it annoying that they name the team in the same concept as the NBA team, but, thats too weak for a rant.

I think The San Antonio Silver Stars will grow on people, definitely.
