The winged "G" logo is awful.


It is, BUT, the wings are straight from the statues they are supposedly named after. So at least there is a reason for it.

The Atlanta Braves beat the Cleveland Indians in six games in the 1995 World Series...

What the heck is wrong with the name Cleveland Indians?

In less than 50 years the Native American in this country will be complaining how they've been erased from history. Then all these dumb liberals will start renaming all the teams back to what they were...

I like how "Indians" is so offensive that they've still been using the name and still have it plastered everywhere for the time being.

I thought Cleveland was the offensive part of their name.

From what I read about the only thing they didn't consider was another name that had anything to do with Native Americans.

I was at the Crow Agency in Montana yesterday and saw a 20 something year old American Indian lad wearing a Cleveland Chief Wahoo ball cap. Obviously not offended. He wasn't aware of the name change when I asked.

Some of the comments on the tweet make it sound like the TMs for the team have been abandoned and there are indications an agreement may already be in place.

Yeah, before the jumping on Cleveland for this dumb move and not verifying a trademark, copyright, bandwagon, I'll go ahead and assume the Indians have a hell of a lot more lawyers than a roller derby team and thought about this long ago.

They should just use this as an excuse to go with the Cleveland Spiders. Better name, better logo, and it has historical context.

If they haven't given up the rights, I imagine plaintiff side IP lawyers will be more than willing to take that on contingency and make a score. Think McKool Smith type of firms that run big IP suits like that out of E.D. Tex. Against big tech.

I feel a little bad for their long time fans. Well . Not really

This is really an opportunity to stage a roller derby race? match? show? in the middle of the fifth inning at home games. If the baseball team declines back to Cleveland mediocrity, the roller derby will be the star of the show by about 2024.

It's not about the Indians. It's about the white progressives.

That might be one of the better name change proposals. Cleveland White Leftists.
