The NBA's been trying to find a new owner for that franchise for quite sometime. I wonder if Tom Benson will do the "Benson Boogie" like he's done for the Saints down there when they win. |

I'm glad they found a real owner. League ownership, for a long period of time, is very Bush League. |

Apparently he wants to rename the franchise from "hornets," which could leave the Bobcats in a position to go back to their former moniker. Their 11 remaining fans are already dusting off their Muggsy Bogues jerseys in anticipation. |

I doubt the NFL will be a'ight w/ him naming them the Saints, if that's what he has in mind. |

How about a three way name change. Charlotte gets the Hornets name New Orleans gets the Jazz name Utah gets ~2 mil from each team Utah changes their team name to the Utah White Bread |
