Quote of the Day: Swish Appeal
From The WNBA Deserves Better Team Names:
Seattle Storm
Did you know it rains a lot in Seattle? You do? Well, then this name already makes sense to you. One of my favorite names in the WNBA, the Storm, while singular, is a memorable name that plays on the most famous part of the city the team plays in. The team does itself a disservice by making its logo and jersey so similar to the now-defunct SuperSonics, but they’re one of a few teams in the WNBA that I could never imagine going by a different name -- which ought to be the goal, right?
Should they change their name: No.
