Cleveland Indians changing their name next week

[stealthyburrito]

Was going to happen eventually in the next couple of years anyway.

Will they be known as the CBT?

[MinnesotaFats]

Surprised noone has made NBA Warriors go away

The Cleveland Clowns

[clockwise1965]

It's a joke

[Carseller4]

Just make everyone happy and name them Cleveland formerly known as Indians.

It worked for Prince.

[homie1975]

How about the Cleveland Hungarians or Austrians?

Real Indians originate from East India.

These were NATIVE AMERICANS the team was named after, not Indians.

Honestly... they should change the name. Can’t win a damn thing with it. If I were a Native I’d be pissed about their mediocrity and ask them to change it too.

Huh? I'm an Indians fan and we are not mediocre by no means. The Indians have had good teams and great players. Cleveland is a small market team and does a lot more with less. We can't hang on to top talent like the Yankees. We've lost more players that have gone on to win Cy Young's with other teams but we know how to pick and groom them. The Indians have the 7th best win percentage in baseball. Sure, we should have won a few more WS but baseball does not favor the little guy.

Oh, and I really don't give a shit what they call the team. I will still support them. I think it's a move to sell old merchandise and make way for new shit. They really can't lose. I don't understand why some of you guys get so triggered so easily??? Is it really making your life that miserable?

[Optional]

Corporations choose to change brands that aren't working for them any more all the time.

Who forced them? I doubt anyone could have forced them to do anything if they didn't think it would make them more money.

If the new fans they need to bring on board are now woke millennials and younger kids, it would be kind of dumb to hold out out on principal, as a business.

[kidcudi92]

Why?

Cause a bunch of white libtards want them to while Indians don’t give a fukk?

[beerman2619]

First you take their land, then you kill most of them and you confine them to reservations, then you name the sports teams after them to "honor" them.

This is getting ridiculous. What is next? Chicago hockey team?

[Snowball]

Does this mean I won't be receiving the GRIT channel anymore?

Are Old Westerns going to be blocked for inappropriate content?

this country is dying.

[JIBBBY]

I hate the so called Woke pussies of today. I can't believe they get their way like this. Makes me want to puke.

Removing history is never the answer. Washington Redskins, Cleveland Indians, statues is only the start ..

What's next? The Kansas City "Queefs"

[Roscoe_Word]

I think most White guys (like myself) really don't give a shit what a person's race is.

Its the libs who see race in everything while trying to come off as morally superior.

[ThaTopMoron]

[stevenash]

relocating where?

Omaha, Louisville, and Charlotte have been rumored.
Just that though, rumors.
They have three years left on the Progressive lease though, so if they do move it'll be 2023-2024

[Kermit]

What's next? The Kansas City "Queefs"

Kansas City's problem was solved over 20 years ago.

[stevenash]

How about just calling them Cleveland.
No nickname, just plain old Cleveland.
