Maine is getting a basketball team!

How'd I miss this news today? Just saw on the ol' 207 show that this autumn Portland is getting an NBA D League franchise.

No name as of yet, but man do I hope it's better than the "Sea Dogs" or the "Pirates".

Portland Lobstermen.
Portland Striped Bass.
Portland Lighthouses.
Portland Rugged Coasts.

You know the idiots that get to pick the name aren't even from Maine so we'll get some lame ocean related name.

Word on the block is a naming contest is in the works. Sounding like it's going to be more like a poll, actually. Expect something with the celtics, because that announcement has been all but made.
Also, shhhh, another brand related contest may be in the works.
