But that's also the plural, no? One bison, two bison One bison, two bisons or One bison, two beese? A single one is a bison, right? But that’s also the plural, no?

One bison, two bison
One bison, two bisons

or
One bison, two beese?

Just like every other team, ours will evolve in time. Clay said there’d be a “logo package”… so I imagine over the next couple of years we will see a variety of updates and improvements.

It's just relatively hard to imagine that we'd change our primary logo, floor design, marketing materials, merchandise, etc. to correspond with a mascot that's being introduced 2/3rds through our inaugural season. I can likely see adding a secondary logo with the bison rather than adding the bison as our primary logo. Just my thoughts...

Dallas has two logos, the Knicks do (the NYK), the Jazz, the Celtics have the clover and the one with Lucky and so on. I've always liked the idea of tying Thunder with bison. I think it would make me like the name a lot more. And I'm already kind of getting used to it. One thing we forget is that all this stuff had to be put together in a matter of three months. A name, a jersey, a logo, a court design... it may seem easy but I'm sure it takes a lot of time to get approved and get put in place. Current team's logos and other things have had years to be altered and changed and perfected to make up its current form. Right on Gerald.

There actually is a recent history of team's doing this. Check out the Balitmore Ravens for example. They have had four different logos/marks associated with the team in their brief history. New Orleans Hornets have several: The new Fluer De Bee, the "H" in the hive, which they used when they were in OKC, and of course, their primary, which features Hugo with the ball. Generally, new marks are launched in the silly season, after the regular season, and before fall camp begins. I always felt that the OKC shield never fully looked "complete." I've heard from several insiders of the bison logo and think that the concept makes sense. Hi everyone: I’m just implying that the primary logo will change.
