Isotopes?  So instead of the player's names on the backs of the uniforms, do 
they have the name of the element whose atomic number matches the player's 
number (Hydrogen, #1, Helium, #2, Lithium, #3, etc.)

>> Las Vegas 51's   1460-KENO-Las Vegas NV/870-KLSQ-Whitney NV (a)

49ers, 76ers, 67s (Ottawa), I get.  But why 51s?  Did Nevada achieve 
statehood in 1851, or is there some other reason?

Gotta love those minor league team names!

> New Orleans Zephyrs   690-WIST-New Orleans LA

Is this team actually playing in New Orleans?  Or have they temporarily 
re-located post-Katrina, like the Saints and Hornets?
