Might as well close the thread now because this comment cannot be topped."Cool hat!! Did you go to music school in Utah?"
What a dumb name for your team? You should give the name back to New Orleans. Jazz suck!!!
This is sometimes followed by something like "more like the Utah Polygamists".
"IM SO OLD THAT I CAN remember when Karl Malone was the only black guy on the jazz"
LOL I heard somebody say that...I died laughing.
I've also heard the:
Bees
Wasps
Deseret
Pioneers
Mormons
Prophets
All terrible names.
Now that's just silly. Everyone knows the Jazz had two.
The Jazz??? Really??? How did you end up a Jazz fan? - Every person I've ever talked to about pro basketball ever since 1995.
I remember thinking the impossible had happened when the Jazz signed Chris Morris. After all, he was covered in tattoos. Before that the Jazz never had any tattoo guys, and it seemed like they never would."IM SO OLD THAT I CAN remember when Karl Malone was the only black guy on the jazz"

Oh please no.I like the name Mormonz! Mostly because of the fun it could present. Think of the jerseys incorporating nametags and neck ties. The road unis could be modeled after a dark wool blend suit from Mr. Mac. Would the Jazz dancers be renamed the wivezz or sisterz? Funeral potatoes and ham at the concession stands. The bear could be retired and replaced with a dancing, fun filled Brigham. Quins new defensive strategy could be dubbed Zion's Wall. Upper and lower bowl become telestial and terrestrial. Luxury suites are of course celestial.
The only trouble I see is the confusion caused by a fast break instead of breaking the fast.
I can hear Boler on the call " Gordon with the steal, he's out front breaking the fast, he steps up to the podium and throws down a two handed testimony over the opposition."
