I’m talking in terms of sports branding. Also, Carolina could be NC and/or SC.
I mean that’s kinda the point though, no? The teams are located in the Carolinas lmao
NYC alone has 2 MLB teams, 2 NHL teams, 2 NBA teams, and 2 NFL teams. There are a whopping 2 professional “Carolina” sports teams, as we speak

Here lies my issue, the name wouldn’t be unique. Raleigh…. would be better in my opinion (Ex: Raleigh Oaks). Why can’t Raleigh be in the name, Charlotte is in the Hornets full brand name?
Also, SC can get their own team if they want to be included lol

Oh as a Bills fan, believe me - I know 
But alas, those teams are the NEW YORK Jets and NEW YORK Giants.
The only team in the city that isn’t technically “NEW YORK” is the Brooklyn Nets.
I personally think Pepsi Park sounds better… they used to do a lot of sponsorship stuff for the canes and have a separate Carolina’s brand.

Just told @Loup20 this is a great time to get upset NCFC fans behind MLB this is an even better opportunity to get support. We not just have an owner but I hear a group has been assembled, and I hear there has already been a decision in the location of a stadium. I’m happy for them they really did it! I know corporate support is shaky and one exec has left but I hear Raleigh will be on top of it after CBA happens. While I’m stressing about whether I’ll come here or not, I think Raleigh has a shot. Whatever happens the community was engaged.

I don’t think Raleigh is going to have an issue with corporate sponsors. It’s not like sponsors have to be Raleigh or even NC specific. It’s not like Raleigh baseball lives and dies on whether Mt. Olive Pickle purchases naming rights to the venue. Part of the reason RDU punches above its weight for domestic and especially int’l destinations is the premium heavy business demand we have. Nucor out of Charlotte is a major Canes sponsor as well as Pepsico. I just feel it gets overblown.
