CPA is what will be called, dumbest name in sports now. I am sure he didn't want it to be Amazon only because that name is already targeted for a lot of things negative.

And let me guess, Seattle's NHL team will be called the Kraken.

You should since you came up with it![]()
Pledge arena makes me think of that wood surface
cleaner.
That arena will always be Seattle Center to me,
the home of the Sonics.

They basically did by calling them the kracken, with the crappy S logo, & the baby blue jerseys.

Bruh, you can't even spell the name right so you have no ground to criticize from whatsoever. Baby blue jerseys? It's an accent stripe. And the logo is fresh as hell, so you may as well get used to seeing it everywhere soon.
Almost all NHL/NBA arenas have god awful, overly-corporate names because it's easy income from the highest bidder. Even the old, storied MLB and NFL stadiums with traditional names are losing way in the sake of making a buck for selling naming space. Doesn't matter what it's officially called -- if there's enough general consensus among fans to give it an unofficial nickname, it'll stick.
