http://www.neworleanshornets.com .net and .org
We get a shitload of type-ins and Overture shows over 7,000 searches for "New Orleans Hornets" during the NBA season and that's just one search engine. We're top 2 on Yahoo and Google for that keyword -- "New Orleans Hornets" and as you know that's an NBA team -- the New Orleans Hornets.
We registered the domain a good 1 1/2 years before they became the New Orleans Hornets and we've already been told by a respectable law firm that there's no problem with us using it. I just feel like putting a feeler out there to see if anyone wants it...if not, I'll keep redirecting it to our Hornets site.
In the package, you'll also get the .net and .org.

If you're worried about any legal issues with owning the domain, you can see that
http://www.houstonrockets.com/ ,
http://www.denvernuggets.com/ etc.. aren't owned by the NBA.
It would be <b>great</b> for a gambling domain or something else I'm sure you could think of. Now is the right time to get it because the NBA season is just about to get underway.
BTW, thanks to everyone who has sent me an e-mail about my situation earlier. I've replied to everyone so hopefully you all got my reply. Times are a little better today than they were.
