They should change to Cleveland Aborigines. It will take 30 to 40 years for the Libtards pushing these changes to figure out what an Aborigine on the North American Continent is.


I've stopped counting.

ok so if this is the new normal, lets focus on the Atlanta Braves, the Seminoles and every other school who does the stupid tomahawk chop noise!

lets also repeal the Indians casino licenses, no reason for them to flout state laws on gambling if they are so easily offended!

As noted elsewhere in the thread, the problem isn't the Indian tribes, its a bunch of hateful, unhappy, white liberal, pussies, who want to make everyone's lives as miserable as theirs is. Unfortunately, one of those unhappy, white, liberal, pussies, happens to own the Indians team. As such, I hope they crash and burn spectacularly from here on out.

Well, the Braves had to ditch Chief Noc-A-Homa ages ago. They lost the smiling Brave in the logo back in the 80s. I guess the name is all that's left to "correct."

I think FSU is safe. The Seminoles' tribal council has approved the use of the Seminole mascot by FSU.


Doesn’t mean a thing. It’s what the PC cancel culture want. FSU and the Braves will end up changing. It’s already being discussed in Atlanta. One possible name is the Atlanta Hammers.


Yeah FSU changing their mascot thing ain't gonna happen anytime soon. Look into Unconquered. Why do you think the Seminole tribe is the wealthiest tribe by a long shot?

How ironic that Cleveland selected the Indians name to honor the first recognized Native American Pro Baseball Player in 1913.

Louis Sockalexis, from the Penobscot Tribe, was nicknamed the "Deerfoot of The Diamond".

Congrats to the left on destroying the legacy of another great Native American.

You're kidding right? I've been an Indians fan for over 50 years. I have tons of Chief Wahoo gear as well as regular Indians jerseys and hats. Sat in the stands at what is now Progressive Field for many years, and have followed the Indians to other team venues around the country as I traveled for work. Lawrence Dolan, the owner of the Indians, is a monumental POS like no other. When he killed Chief Wahoo, Indians fans revolted and it cost the team huge revenues and backlash from fans. Killing off the Indians name all together will cripple the team's revenue stream, and Dolan is about to reap a shit storm from fans he's too stupid to even grasp. As a MLB fan for over 50 years I can say without hesitation, Lawrence Dolan is the worst team owner in MLB history. How this man managed to get wealthy is a mystery to me, but he knows nothing about MLB and even less about the folks (like me) who have stuck with the Indians forever...but no more after this announcement.

Mr. Dolan, may you burn in hell for all eternity for what you've done to Cleveland Indian baseball.

No I'm not kidding. What fans spend is one thing. What corporations spend on team sponsorships and advert dollars is entirely another. The Redskins didn't budge on surrendering their name until their major corporate sponsors threatened to jump ship.

Cleveland Indians Change Name To 'Cleveland Genderless Sports Players With No Discernable Racial Features Or Specific Ethnic Background'

https://babylonbee.com/news/cl...reveal-new-team-name

CLEVELAND, OH—Due to mounting pressure from a growing consensus of 12 people on Twitter and The New York Times, the Cleveland Indians have finally chosen to change their team's name and get rid of the highly offensive "Chief Wahoo" mascot. After testing several new names with focus groups, the owners finally settled on the highly non-offensive title "Cleveland Genderless Sports Players With No Discernable Racial Features Or Specific Ethnic Background."

"After listening to the earnest pleas of a few recent college grads who sat through a Native American History course once, we realized something had to change," said owner Paul Dolan. "Once we make this change, we expect the lives of indigenous people to improve exponentially."

In addition to the name change, the Cleveland Indians will also replace Chief Wahoo with a generic, genderless, racially ambiguous grey face with purple hair.

Activists are continuing to push the organization to do more to right the wrongs brought about by decades of racial insensitivity. In response, the team will offer free season tickets to anyone named "Wahoo."

I never cared for pro football or basketball, not even in pre BLM times.

But I liked baseball, but said to hell with you too when BLM infected MLB.

Whatever you want to call yourself these days is fine with me. I don't care.

Sorry, but if there are no butts in the seats at Progressive Field, no viewers of Indians games on TV, and no one buying Indians merchandise, which is exactly where the Indians are headed, there is absolutely zero reason for corporates to spend a penny in sponsorships. Simple Economics 101. Dolan has killed the Indians and I absolutely loathe the POS for it.

With a name like Guardians, seems like the Cleveland Condoms would have been a better choice
