What's new

Rebrand announcement coming next week

I’m literately sitting at a small drinking establishment on Bourbon Street. It’s a true crime that Utah took the name and Mardi Gras colors. There couldn’t be two more opposites. If Utah had any soul, they would give the name and colors back and move on. Even 43 years later. It’s just the stupid that will never get better.

Wait we just effed up a rebrand in ways that are unfathomable and now you want Ryan to pick a new name for the team?

Lol. Yep. NOLA is like a 2nd home for me. So odd the franchise took that name to Utah.

Check out Coop's Place near the market. Outstanding.

If you make it to Magazine, go to Joey K's.

You probably know, but check out Lafitte's on the north side of Bourbon. Oldest bar in the country supposedly.

Then they shouldn’t have affixed the name to a franchise they couldn’t keep in the state.

Not our problem.
They still barely deserve a team IMO, they support the football team but have never really supported their NBA team. Again IMO they are one of the top teams to be moved to a more deserving city like Vegas and Seattle, although if they do an expansion to keep the numbers even they would need to add 2 teams to make an even 32 and the NBA did have Vancouver (now Memphis) and TOR at the same time so history shows the NBA can do a 2 expansion teams at the same time.

Seattle deserves one and there are just too many rumors about Vegas getting a team to not think they will get one very soon.

Well, I kind of agree about NOLA deserving a team. There is just too much to do around here to be bothered by less than stellar teams. It’s not a big market and football will always rule. Like 99% of America. It’s more about “Jazz” is the antithesis of Utah. Just the spirit of the music genre alone is everything Utah isn’t. It’s just embarrassing.

I live in Seattle. I’m not 100% sure an NBA team would flourish there. At least the city owns the Sonic’s name. I know many diehard Sonic fans that haven’t watched one NBA game since they left. I’m not sure about Vegas either. At the least, it would be a super crappy fan base. The Raiders are a major sports brand and they give tickets away and had the largest no show by far last year.

I’ve been to Joey K’s. Chicken fried steak and onion rings. It’s hard to go wrong any place here. This city is best food city in the world, in my opinion. And they know it.

I never heard the answer to why the Jazz never had their "Earned" jerseys this season, in the past every team that makes the playoffs gets to wear them and the last ones the Jazz had were everyone's least favorite and nicknamed the "Subway" aka eat fresh jersey's.

Also the Jazz should get another Earned jersey this upcoming season.

As far as YoungJefe's designs, in my mind I try to keep things as realistic as possible (yep I'm boring) so obviously the Jazz had their colors picked out on their "rebrand" so any mock ups made I think should try to keep with those colors. I think this would also show even if the colors aren't someones personal choice you can still make decent or good looking uniforms out of the color scheme.
I tried to keep it as close to the design we got while adding a couple touches to make it better.

Yeah they do. I've glad you've been to Joey K's. That's my Mom and late Nana's favorite place there.

The banana pudding is ridiculous. I'm partial to the catfish because their tartar sauce is the best I've ever had.

Food there is so incredibly good.

It was 1974. The professional bowling league was more popular than the NBA. There were three channels and the NBA championship games were tape delayed until after the 11:00 news. African Americans were prohibited from entering the Mormon priesthood. It was a different time.

Then if someone has a really cool name for something, don’t use it on something less popular than professional bowling. They gave it the name and didn’t have enough interest to keep the team there. They were the New Orleans Jazz for 5 years. We’ve been the Utah Jazz for 43. Why do we GAF? Do the Lakers GAF? Should they? The Should Vancouver be offended by the Grizzlies?

Offended? No. Dumbasses incapable of coming up with your own name? Yes.
