lol.. I was joking bro. Don't take it serious. You asked what did "Golden State" have to do with Bay Area. The term was based on the Gold rush that took place in San Francisco. Hence, the Golden State connection to the Bay Area/Northern Cali.

49ers cant move out the bay then
Oh yeah they can, how do you think we end up with teams with nonsense names like the Utah Jazz. That's probably what New Orleans was thinking -- they can't move our team -- its called the JAZZ for fuckin sake!!!!

And now the New Orleans team is called the Hornets..... but Utah is the Beehive State. They should just trade nicknames straight up.
