Seattle's new NHL team the Kraken are still the leader in the clubhouse for cool, new names.
Cleveland Indians changing name
- Thread starter Kaner04
- Start date
Its definitely a native American reference though. Right or wrong, the pressure is going to continue to increase that they change their name.
My favorite was 4chan sending taylor swift to a deaf school and bieber to north korea
Dumb, but hey, it's 2020, got fix the important issues. Do native Americans really find it offensive?
What the hell is derogatory about “Chiefs?” I get Redskins & Indians, but Braves and Chiefs are honorable titles.
Just pain stupid natives Americans , like that they are recognized

Nothing. But we gotta make sure we don't offend anyone, even if the people offended have nothing to do with the situation.
Keep the Chiefs name. Change the arrowhead to a police or fire emblem/badge and change the branding from Indians to police or fire chiefs. Easy change.
I wouldn’t change ether name of the stadium though.

It's kind of funny watching people get offended by other people being offended.
I'm not offended, I just think it's dumb. Just like the banning of the Tomahawk chop, it's just dumb.
I find it funny watching people get offended on behalf of other people who aren’t offended. Or better yet thinking “Indians” or “Redskins” is anything at all like “Seminoles”, “Braves” or “Chiefs”.
Just drop the "i" and make them the chefs
The first two are genuine ethnic slurs and needed to go.
Anyways, I really hope they are the Cleveland Spiders. That name just screams baseball.
