I love this Oklahoma!

Tuesday, August 14th, 2007

The owner of the Seattle SuperSonics said today that he plans on moving his NBA team to Oklahoma City.

Uhm…it’s about fucking time! What a disgrace it’s been to watch an important and bustling American metropolis like Oklahoma City go without a professional basketball team for so long. This is Oklahoma City, Oklahoma we’re talking about here, people. The big OKC! The seventh biggest city in the country (in terms of geographical area)! The only capital city that shares the name of its state!  

My only hope is that when the team does move, that they change their name. I mean, when you move a franchise from a city like New Orleans to a place like Utah, obviously it makes sense to keep the name “Jazz”. However, “Oklahoma City SuperSonics” doesn’t sound very good. So, here are some suggestions I have for new team names:

 DT’s

D.T., of course, stands for Domestic Terrorism.

Dust Bowls

Oh, and this woman could be the Dust Bowls’ mascot:

Crushing Sadness

Sacramentos

TOTs

T.O.T. = Trail of Tears. Also, tater tots, which are delicious.
