Oklahoma Cattle Barons or Barons for short. They should give them ugly brown uniforms after this ugly change is officially concluded.
Of course, the Sooners and Cowboys works, but they are already taken. I do think that it is sadly fitting that Oklahoma has to steal a team from another state. The Sooner state was of course started by a bunch of cheats. They stole land before they were supposed to by getting there "Sooner" than everyone else. It just fits that they were scoundrels then, and they are scoundrels now. Actually, I shouldn't criticize the state. It is a great place to visit, and I imagine it would a great place to live too. The only real scoundrels are the officals from the Sonics that set this up and the NBA for letting it happen. I can't fault Oklahoma City for wanting and pursuing a team. That's awesome for them. I hope that Oklahoma City really appreciates this team and supports them more than Seattle did. You OKC fans better go to tons of games, even if they aren't that great of a team. That being said, I do like the fact that the NBA reserved the SuperSonics records, colors, and traditions for future use. That at least gives the Seattle fans some hope for the future.
