The vagabond Nets — denizens of Newark, late of East Rutherford, N.J., and Long Island — will settle in downtown Brooklyn next year with a new identity but a familiar name.

“We named the New Jersey Nets the Brooklyn Nets,” Jay-Z, the music mogul and part-owner of the franchise, announced Monday morning in a ceremony that was brief and anticlimactic.

The Brooklyn Nets moniker had been a poorly kept secret in recent months and was considered a given for some time before that, despite the public ruminations by the majority owner, Mikhail D. Prokhorov, about a rebranding. Team officials considered alternatives and drafted focus groups but ultimately chose continuity (Nets) and cachet (Brooklyn).

I’ll admit it - I’m excited to see what they come up with for the new logo/uniforms.

How much did everyone love Beyoncé’s mike-dropping VMA pregnancy announcement? Enough to boost 4’s ailing record sales back into the iTunes top ten, almost two months after its release. (It’s currently at No. 6.) Meanwhile, “Love On Top,” the non-single that Bey performed just before unveiling her Belly of Wonder, jumped to the No. 5 spot; her current single, “Best Thing I Never Had,” is still hanging down at No. 26. Nice hustle, Babyoncé! This is excellent news for your future recording career.
