I can understand the pain changing the name has caused many of you.
The amount of players on the American League franchise in Cleveland who hailed from, or whose families originated from India is a long and proud one.

OK, they changed the name... I don't give a hoot about Baseball... India, or Indian-a? Darn, they should change the name of that state while we're at it...
Browns... Racist... Change it to the North Coast Coasters.

Personally, I don't give a rats ass about Cleveland baseball. I'm a Yankees fan. And I stopped watching baseball lots of years ago. Waaay too boring. I'd rather watch golf...or go mow the lawn, or play my guitar, or.......
Yes, no, yes, yes, yes, yes, no, yes, and yes. I sometimes play my old acoustic Martin.
I come here solely for the Browns. But I'll say this, What the hell was wrong with the name Indians? They were a proud peoples, living off the land. Lets just throw them in the historical shitter and never speak of them again. Stupid. Redskins, well, I can understand. - Next, cows are up in arms about the name Cowboys. And the dairy farmers are standing up for the cows. Lets change the Dallas Cowboys name too so there will be no more Cowboys & Indians.
Everything there except for the first sentence is a big no. Those analogies always drive me nuts.
In the first place Cowboys, Vikings, Raiders, or animals are not a race or an ethnicity, so it's quite easy to know where the line is drawn.
So one way to "honor" black people is to have a black sambo caricature with a bone through his nose as a team logo? Name the team the "Africans" or "Zulus" or some shit. After all, they too are a proud people that live off the land and chuck spears for a living.
Taking this stance doesn't make you a faggot liberal btw. I am no white guilt liberal sitting atop some perch thinking I know whats best for others because it makes me feel good.
With all that in mind, you may be surprised to know is that I am not in favor of name changes either. My feeling has always been that if a majority of Native Americans don't give a fuck, then I don't give a fuck about the Indians name or logo or what the fuck you name your team. I just don't know if it's a majority, and I don't think it is.
Never heard any Irish people complain about ND's nickname and that Leprechaun logo, have you? So there ya go.
I doubt any lib would take on that crusade anyway. Too white.
And btw fuck the Guardians. Hate that name.

I differ with the Vikings. People from Denmark, Sweden and Norway were Vikings and were considered a different etchnicity towards the rest of Europe.
I get the Redskins change, not the Indians one. But it's baseball, I don't care too much either.

I'm curious how long States will be able to keep their name... Like... Indiana for example..

So what can we expect from the Guardians? Things fall perfectly into place and maybe a wildcard?
I see we didn’t spend anything and it appears we are being frugal with Jose Ramirez extension.
From the TRIBE Board, not used to seeing this. (4/2/2022)

Remarkable stat….Steven Kwan 115 pitches and No swing and misses.

love this guys approach at the plate…the team is pretty solid IMO. * not a bad observation...Very scrappy TEAM first hitters
Two runs the first two games I think. So 38 is pretty impressive.
I was back in Youngstown this past weekend and Wedgewood Pizza made my original everything pie too crispy…but I had their Philly cheese steak pizza it was tasty.
........ * edit add 10/27/22 ....... * A 4/13 post. This scrappy team was just that all the way to the ALC Champions l.

So 38 is pretty impressive.If this offense can be somewhere in the middle-of-the-pack in runs scored, with relative pitching health, they could legitimately contend for a playoff spot. I know "middle-of-the-pack" doesn't sound like I'm very optimistic, but considering how inept their offense was last season, average would be a nice jump.
It's been a fun first week.

Offense stunk and some untimely errors this weekend.
I think the Giants have a nice team this year again but We are what we are maybe… .500 team that maybe sniffs a wildcard if some young guys realize their potential and pitching stays healthy

Heard something this weekend that this Guardians team isn't only the youngest team in the majors this season - by far - but the youngest team in MLB in over 30 years.
It's going to be a rollercoaster this year.
