Its going to turn into a very sad boring world if you can’t use a cartoon character or mascot because it depicts a specific person.
You don’t see me crying about the white guy Elmer Fudd being depicted as a dunce.
What’s next Dogs are people too so no more animal mascots they might get their feelings hurt ?

The Tribes best looking uniforms are the Chief Wahoo logos outfits.
Shame on Indians management for caving.
The PC idiots won't stop there until they eliminate the name Indians.
Cleveland 'Native Americans'....lol

An Indian is a person from the country India. Maybe their logo should be the Taj Mahal

Someone should tell that to the Native Americans. They think the logo is about them.  |

American Indians much prefer to be referred to as American Indians, not a title that was relegated to them by liberal white people. |

Make all the mascots images of white people then I guarantee the next thing they will cry about is they are not being represented.

Kansas City Chiefs should change their name to the Kansas City Fire Chiefs
Replace the arrowhead on the helmet with a firehose.

I say we protest the Raiders. I don’t like the use of that one eyed thug on the helmet.
It is offensive to me and hurts my feelings deeply, I can hardly sleep at night.
See how stupid it sounds, It’s time to stop catering to the freaking wussbags of the world.

Let us all not forget that (once-upon-a-time) "Jacob's Field" was renamed "Progressive Field".
Progressive Insurance (the company that the field has been named after) directly funds Planned Parenthood.
Planned Parenthood is pretty far "left" (IMHO).
And, as we all know, The Indians front office sold out (the Chief Wahoo logo) to PC "folks".
It's a case of A = B and B = C, therefore A = C. Or maybe even A = B and A = C, therefore A = B or C.

An Indian is a person from the country India. Maybe their logo should be the Taj Mahal I'm sorry, there are many words and names in the English language that have multiple meanings and indian is one of them. There are American Indians and there is the country of India , neither enjoys complete exclusivity. |

On a side note were I were a tribe fan I'd be a whole lot more concerned with their lack of any outfielders, first basemen, second basemen, and dh's than the loss of a logo.

Cleveland's management is still more about $$$ than they are P.C. The only reason they took the logo off their uniforms was to get the all-star game $$$. |

Nope, they can't use it on official merchandise. That's part of the deal. Nor can anybody use it for advertising purposes if you want to be an official team sponsor. Just looked online and they aren't even selling them in the clearance section anymore. |

Nope, not part of the deal. Just googled "chief wahoo" and read some of the stories by various news outlets at the time of the announcement. They all said the Indians would continue to sell the stuff, but that the MLB website would no longer sell it. |

I guess I'll have to pick up a spare Chief Wahoo hat and shirt, just in case.
Will never attend any games without my Wahoo guy.
