Show I'm beginning to see why the owners of the Utah Jazz opted to keep that name when they moved the franchise from New Orleans to Salt Lake. to get in on it. rumor that New the Orleans ex- pansion entry in the United States Football League interested in was purchasing the name from the Jazz owners, I set about formulating in my own mind a new name for the team - something that many fans s and have advocated since the Jazz initially came here.

Now Im not so sure. Ive listed two or three pros and cons. The greatest pro is that a new team name wouldnt confuse writers. The is versus are issue is long and hotly debated among my peers. If the team was, for example, the Scorpions, there wouldnt name. d Besides how many people back East know what the Beehive State is? One or two have heard of Utah, and a few have a vague SALT LAKE.
