Cleveland Indians have chosen new name
-
Never really followed Baseball (Basketball not at all), but the Indians and the Reds were Teams that I'd pull for.
PC is in overdrive - has been, and always will be abhorrent.
Seeing as how Robert E Lee and Stonewall were leaders of armies which fought an armed rebellion against the United States - the very definition of treason - Wendy's tweet is a prime example of needing to think about your tweet before sending it.
But, as a Reds fan, the concept of a Reds-Guardians rivalry doesn't seem to have the same oomph as a Reds-Indians one.

Actually, not true. The south was NOT trying to overthrow the gov, they wanted to leave. secede.

Meaning that the Democrats hatred of treason is at the very least situational. But that's not really part of this conversation.

I don't think anybody on this board seriously supports the idea that we should have changed the name of the Cleveland Indians but let's say somebody here does oh, and isn't just being an a******..
For you guys, don't you think it's about time we changed the names of the Tuscarawas or Cuyahoga Rivers? How about the name of the city Sandusky? Or Ottawa County? And what will we change Lake Mohawk to? It never ends, like the outrage of democrats. ???

Don't forget Cuyahoga County, and river, and National Park.

Security Guards everywhere will protest.

Or maybe they'll love
️ it..........or maybe ? not. Another social media protest !!!
......hey Vambo does your keypad smoke when you're done here ?
BTW I hate the name.
-
the Spiders might have been better and cheaper
-
"guardians" is a stupid name. Baseball is boring enough without going woke to avoid hostility by the left.
-
At least it's not the Spiders.
At least it's not the Spiders.
I would have much preferred the spiders.
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -
They should of made a dick move and said ok we will rename the Indians to the Red Skins. It is clear they don't know our history to why we were even called the Indians but I love how they went all out and got Tom Hanks to do the video of the name change. Glad he was able to pull away from the Illuminatti parties of sacraficing kids,
-
They should have named them the bison. the "cleveland tatankas" sounds cool.
We saw about 160 buffalo around our car, within six feet of it a few times.....
I don't believe the bison would mind and sue the cleveland team.....

But they were literally the worst baseball team in history.

You can argue that if the reason behind a name is not obvious, then the name is stupid.
Browns, Steelers, no explanation needed. Ravens, Edgar Alan Poe from Baltimore , wrote "The Raven".
Houstons importance in the space program is why they are called the Astros.
Cowboys, Texans, Mavericks, well duh.
49'ers well duh.
Eagles, Philly- the birthplace of our country, the Eagle it's symbol.
Some teams are named simply named to reflect powerful or majestic animals, Bears, Tigers, Lions, Bengals. And a Ram will knock you into next week. Animal names are high school.
Some teams named after animals native to their areas...Devil Rays, Dolphins, Seahawks, Diamondbacks (also the baseball field is known as a diamond]
Some teams are simply named to reflect fearless or brave men, Vikings, Indians, Raiders, Pirates, Braves, Cavaliers. Thats high school.
The Lakers were originally from Minnesota "The Land of 10,000 lakes".
Reds, Red Sox..simply the color reflected in their uniforms.
Washington Capitols, well duh.
The Jets play near LaGuardia Airport.
Who the fuck could deduce from "Guardians" that Cleveland has two traffic guardian statues carved on a bridge?
What a stupid name.

Great post. I don't hate the name Guardians I hate the reason for changing it. Also don't forget that Paul Browns Bengals named reflect is Massillon Tigers. And New York likes to rhyme their home teams, Nets Jets, Mets. Part of the equipment used in basketball Jets as in West Side Story and the metropolitans.
Maybe Guardians are those who guard a tiny fraction of the population from ever hearing their name spoken aloud again in order to make stupid white billionaires feel like they are doing something good for the world.
Waiting for these woke assholes to change it to the "I" word.
