What would the Utah Jazz have been named?

Haven't read the whole thread yet.

We do have some "Chuckers" in this state. . . . lol.

The "Browning" line of guns come from a Utah inventor, but that would go straight to the toilet with Trout around. . . .

I get USAF jets and even bombers flying low over my place, "buzzing my house". No kidding. One day some Air Force brass came down my road and politely asked if they could photograph my place "so they could program their rockets to miss". As glorious as the USAF is, though, the Utah Buzz wouldn't fly. Just wouldn't. Too much cognitive dissonance in a state known for stupid restrictions on liquor.

Coyotes are the smartest dog. No kidding, the state used to have sharpshooters riding in airplanes to shoot coyotes. One day the plane was circling my fields trying to get a shot at one. . . . who had taken refuge in the middle of my little band of cows. . . . but there's no good way to say Utah Coyotes. . . .

Eagles. I see them all the time.

Utah Eagles.
 
something to do with our most famous assets.

first has to be salt lake. The Great Salt Lakers. or something to do with our skiing or snow.
Utah White Powder or Powder Burns. Of course those could be taken the wrong way.

Considering the demographics on religion, Kentucky should be the "Raptures". Mos don't believe in the Rapture, they believe Jesus will descend and take over worldwide government and tie Satan's hands and feet for a thousand years, preparatory to just kicking him off to perdition forever.

Raptors are awesome. You should see them swoop down and lock their talons on my little"wild cats". uhhmmm. . . and rabbits, gophers, and snakes.

I'd kinda hate to see KU basketball turn into a court staffed by praying pansies expecting with the next shot to fly right up with the ball. and not come down for a while.

Message board or not, that was a bit over the top.. but I've come to expect that from a large % of the holier than thou's.
Also, KU = Kansas. Dolt.

Nobody gives a crap about our lake (outside of Utah, that is). It should either be skiing.. or somehow tieing in the diversity of skiing and desert.

The Utah Anti-Nephi Lehis

Grizzlies and Raptors would have been available back then. The Utah Raptor is an actual thing.

Could have been the Utah Rough Riders like a third of the teams in Canadian Football.

Me, I would go with the Utah Jackpotters and design the uniform to look a lot like a tuxedo.

Good point on the Raptors. Too bad Toronto put taint on it forever.

There aren't grizzly bears in Utah anymore. We could be posers, kinda like the UVU are wolverines instead of badgers that actually inhabit Utah.

Cougars and Utes are both perfectly named. I'd like to see the Jazz renamed to something symbolic some day. Salt Lake Scandals, maybe.

I don't think most of us care about "our" lake (what, you think you get to claim Utah now? lol). I've been there twice, both times before I was 12. It was a pretty lousy experience.

maybe they don't give a crap about it but ask outsiders to name a few things about Utah.
first will be Mormons, second will probably will salt lake.

But do they think it's way cool?

I would be promoting the extreme sports / outdoors.. I think.

Utah Downhillers
 
Out of state people think the Great Salt Lake is waaayyy cooler than in state people do.

Went to college in Missouri, like rev said, first question people would ask is if I was Mormon, then they'd usually ask if I knew any polygamous people, then they'd ask if the Great Salt Lake was awesome.

No, it is not awesome.

Good point about Toronto's Taint. Those hockey players taint's are pretty nasty...

There are wolverines in Utah, just only a few of them though, in the Uintas and a couple other places. Wolverines are pretty rad, they inhabit like 200 square miles, so even where their population is "dense" they are very rare and pretty hard to find. In all my time living in Wyoming/Utah/Idaho, I have only ever seen one wolverine.
 
I only have one memory about going to the Great Salt Lake. I can remember my cousin going in, then swimming around for a second, then coming back out and puking everywhere.

I've never been in the Lake because of this.



If the lake wasn't salty and shallow then Utah would probably be a whole different state. From religion to real estate

I thought it was ****ty, but that was mostly because of the insane amount of mosquitoes. I've never been around that many at one time, and I've been in the swamps.

I guess what I should say is people who have never been to The Great Salt Lake think more highly of it than people who have.
