    I always thought FOMO was short for Fuck Old Men Over...that's probably because I'm an old man

    I thought FOMO meant "Fix Or Repair Daily"?

    The 5 on 5 stripes of the Pinwheel are still in my view the best logo in pro sports. I hope it never goes away. I like the hurricanes logo as well, it suits an east coast team

    Has the NBA ever approved two separate sales at once?

    They can call a vote at any time so it seems silly to have either sale awaiting the other approval. Once all the due diligence is complete for either sale they'll immediately approve just as the NBA always has done.

    The approval yes makes it 100% final - but once an agreement is reached the rest of us can consider the deal effectively a sure thing.

    I remember hearing about a bartender who used to do that. Pretty sure he got caught and went to jail.

    I just like it better. I get the history and shit of ours, but it’s boring and is meaningless to every non Trailblazer fanatic.

    Dundon sounds just like the two chords they play between scenes of Law & Order.

    It's been over 4 decades since I dropped acid. Maybe then I would have enjoyed that ugly ass logo of theirs.

    If you were to put the two logos out into the average sports community, most wouldn't even know what the hell the Hurricanes logo is, let alone what team it is.

    At least with the Blazers logo, fans recognize it and know it.

    As for being "meaningless" to every non Blazer fan, they at least would know what it is. You ask the generic non Hurricane fan about their logo and they probably wouldn't have a clue what it is, or what sport it's for, or better yet, that it's an actual real logo.

    I'm not saying their logo is bad, but it's not even a top 10 NHL logo. Hell, it's not even the best logo in their own state.
