Hornets changing their name. Lame

Apparently, they also considered Krewe and Brass before settling on Pelicans. They could have called them the ****sticks and I'd have preferred that to another of those dumbass singular names.

Pelicans are cool.

A crowd once gathered for me on Ocean beach pier near San Diego.

I caught a mullet from the pier and there was a Pelican sitting on one of the light poles above the pier.

I tossed the mullet up and the Pelican caught it , bounced it around in his bill and dropped it back down.
I picked it up and tossed it back up, and he caught it again, bounced it around in his bill and dropped it again.

He must not have liked the taste of mullet , I guessed.

I started to giggle and threw it again, he caught it again and dropped it again.

I kept doing this for about a half hour. I was playing catch with a ****ing Pelican on Ocean beach pier and a crowd gathered around and watched.

I'll never forget that shit and have liked Pelicans ever since.

Good thing they aren't a baseball team then..

I like it. Its not demeaning to any group of broke assed nitwits who hate to be a name of a sports team and it beats hell out of sporting New Orleans.

Maybe the New Orleans Levees if you're going for the disaster joke. Now that's topical and ironic.
