Beat me to it...
Really? I believe the Indians were called the Indians in '64 Squawman.
Not to mention the '48 Tribe...

Clearly we are snakebit. It's gotten to the point where losing in a grandious fashion is Cleveland's identity. It's not the best identity, but at least it is an identity. Better to be Cleveland than the many many many teams around the country that just plain out suck in completely unremarkable fashion.

Cleveland may in fact be cursed, but it sure as hell isn't because of the name of their baseball team.

Well... I hope so. That is one Ohio team I can't root for.

Mark my words... We will never win a major sports championship in Cleveland until we change the name of the cleveland Indians... The karma there is so bad

He doesn't deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. He was a bumbling owner in Cleveland that went 30 years without getting his team to the Super Bowl before he moved one of the NFL's greatest franchises without so much of a warning.
So ... he was on a committee introduced MNF and he won a Super Bowl with someone else's money after he shafted an entire city? That's his resume? He misses the finalist list again this year ... and it has nothing to with anybody from Cleveland. People around the league see absolutely nothing Hall worthy about him.

Can't tell if I'm serious? Ok let's put this in perspective. This country is founded on the genocide of OVER 70 MILLION Native Americans. So not only did this country kill them, give them diseases their immune systems weren't accustomed to, keep moving them west, taking their land, making treaties with them and not fulfilling them, and turning a beautiful land into a polluted wasteland where corporations have taken over power and call the shots, and then we go and make our team the Cleveland fucking Indians, with a logo with a red face and a feather, and huge smiling teeth... And you can't tell if I'm serious? Holy fuck.....

What is wrong with the name 'Indians'? It isn't insulting at all. That's what they were called. What should we call ourselves, the Cleveland 'Native Americans'?

Really, it's not insulting at all? Lets see how America would react the NY Jews, the Baltimore Blacks, SF Chinamen....

I don't care what Chud says
I believe it
...and been cursed for a long time...
Cursed or real bad Karma- let's see- since 1964 The Drive, The Fumble, 9th inning Choke in Game 7 of the World Series, Le Bron bailing on the Cavs.
Oh, and it's not "Indians" the Native Americans find degrading- It's Chief Wahoo they can't stand. Is the Blackhawks Logo any less degrading?

I don't want this to get into a political debate, but you do have a point. "Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee" should be required reading for every High School student on how our manifest destiny royally screwed the Native Americans, and deposited them on some of the most God-forsaken real estate in the country. For those that don't know, here's a question for you- how did Crazy Horse die? Answer- some smart ass Army private thought it would be cool to stab him in the back on the reservation.
I'll never forget this quote I saw on a plaque in a Real Estate office in Estes Park Colorado from the great Arapaho Chief Red Cloud. "When the White Man came, he made to us many promises, more than I can remember. But he never kept but one. He promised to take our land, and he took it."
