With all these teams dropping the Indians, Redmen, and Redskin names. Who’s going to be the first to rename their team the Cry Babies ? They really should, the cry babies are getting all the wins these days. It’s the age of the cry baby.
Bellevue Babies has a nice ring to it.

“Crybabies” is a good name for those who act as though they’ve been harmed by a name change. I like tradition more than most but the history behind some of these names is not honorable. Reading the history of my ancestors driving the Native Americans out Ohio like cattle using terms like “Redmen” then later others claiming to honor them with a HS mascot is a little disturbing

Wouldn’t the term Redmen or Redskins be the same as using mascots with the names “blackmen” or “brownskins” or “blackskins” for black people?

Sounds like you are a heifer not a bull No team is going to take on a name that was meant in a demeaning mannor. The use of any Indian related name was taken in honoring of the people out of respect. Do you even know the story of how and why Cleveland took on the Indian name. That isn't their original name it was done out of honor and repect. Like I said these teams did not take on any reference to a people out of any other reason but respect and wanting to honor and keep their legacy alive. You don't see teams naming theirselves the scumbags do you. All this whining has come from a bunch of PC babies that just want to cry.

Not sure if this subject really belongs in the high school football forum. Let’s just stick with football here and not a pissing match.

So no mention of bucyrus Redmen, fostoria Redmen, or PC Redskins Seems like you have an axe to grind with Bellevue.

Nothing like starting a thread just to take a shot at a HIGH SCHOOL. Life must be miserable when you get on a message board to get your digs in on a high school.
I’m pretty sure all this name change won’t be reaching the high school level.

I’m pretty sure all this name change won’t be reaching the high school level. Honestly this was never meant as an attack on Bellevue, just used their name as an example. Sorry if this has offended any fans. I have alway had much respect fot that school. Ed has run a top notch football program for years. I believe your wrong thinking it won't get to the high school level.

Reading the history of my ancestors driving the Native Americans out Ohio like cattle using terms like “Redmen” then later others claiming to honor them with a HS mascot is a little disturbing We found the cuck. Dallas Cowboys NY Yankees Minnesota Vikings Notre Dame FIGHTING IRISH Montreal Canadiens Fighting Irish, how derogatory. sniff, sniff. So insensitive Bellevue should just change their name to Caucasians or Whitemen. Nobody except cucks like falcon87 would have a problem with the Whitemen. falcon97 aka cuckboy would claim the Whitemen is white supremacy. Go back to CNN cuck

In the area where I am now - western Ohio - you have the Wapakoneta Redskins, the Lima Shawnee Indians and the St. Henry Redskins. All three schools were asked to change their mascot name and the response was basically the same - No, take a hike.

I’d imagine that would be a huge expense for high schools to change uniforms and other things with a name change. Most schools are just getting by let along changing their name.

Toledo Bowsher just changed their nickname from the Rebels to the Blue Racers, a snake that is common to Swan Creek which runs through the Bowsher neighborhood.

Who were the first to call the indigenous tribes that came across the land bridge between what is now Russia and North America "indians"? I'm quite sure it wasn't them, they weren't from India. They are not "native" Americans as, THEY immigrated from Russia to North American from the West, as did the Europeans to our East coast. Who were at least escaping religious persecution. Other indigenous people immigrated from South America to North American.
I've heard that many Native Americans find the world "Indian" offensive. If it's so offensive to Native American's, then why do they care?

It's 2021 and words like Redmen, Redskins, Indians are hate crimes and anyone that uses them should be prosecuted for a hate crime and sent to prison for a long, long time. White people only named teams the Redmen, etc because they thought Native's were animals. The real animals are white people, especially white people that like guns, the American flag, and Donald Trump. The USA is no place for bigots that voted for Drumpf.
I see that a member on here thinks Bellevue should be called the Bellevue Whitemen. Wow, talk about a white supremacist. A bunch of white males taking the field as the Whitemen, what is that a Klan rally. Doesn't surprise me one bit as Trump voters are bigots and white supremacists and terrorists (Jan. 6). You only want to call them the Whitemen because you're a Klan member and hate Blacks, Asians and Natives. Whitemen is so divisive and makes no place for other races on a team called the Whitemen.

Well I am offended you call me white, wah-wah. I actually have a bronze tan right now. We shall see if the grass is greener since Trump is out or if it starts turning brown.

Bucyrus also voted to keep the Redmen nickname. They took a poll from the community and about 80% was in favor of keeping it.

Public schools are funded by government money, and when they start saying we strongly recommend you make a name change or face cut funding it will happen. That is the direction the government is going, and it’s not as far away as you think, like it or not.

Also, Ohio is becoming more red by the election, you don't have to worry about the state forcing name changes... it will be individual districts that do it. although, could the OHSAA prevent teams with these style nicknames from playing in the postseason, similar to what the NCAA did a while back?
