3GamesToLove Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Welcome to the 20th century, Cleveland. Names like "Indians" and "Braves" and "Chiefs" at least seem worth debating, but this logo and the name of the Washington NFL team seem like the non-negotiable ones to me.

Panerista Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Probably a good move. I generally don’t care about the use of Native American logos and symbols, but portrayal of Native Americans as “Redskins” or having red skin is beyond offensive when you understand the origin.

BlackSox13 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Not surprising seeing as how so many people are easily offended these days. I'll have to pick up a hat with Chief Wahoo while they are still being made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Collateral damage from their World Series appearance. They kept ignoring the problem and flying under the radar until they showed up on the national stage and the pressure mounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Like everybody said they had to get rid of the logo. They ought to change the name of the team. Times change and unfortunately for them it's very offensive to many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality is people choose to be offended by everything. You choose to be offended by words, cartoons, books, tv shows, jokes, other people, etc. And then you have nothing better to do than make sure the world knows you are offended. As a Satan worshipper that loves the color red, I think its about time someone did something about Duke University. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
