Current Events > Which of these US pro teams named after indigenous people should change next?

(+) Yeah! (+)

With the Cleveland Indians officially changing to the Cleveland Guardians, there are only 3 major professional US sports teams named after indigenous peoples. Which, if any, do you think should change next?

None of those names are racist enough to need changing. Maybe the Blackhawks logo, but not any of the names.

I don't have a problem with the Blackhawks name but that logo is the worst of em all

---

What about Florida State?

I dont really see the issue. The blackhawk logo needs to change, but I don't get the issue with the names. Lots of streets are named after native american tribes and stuff all across the country; what's the difference?

I considered adding them, but figured it would lead to people then questing the exclusion of lesser known college teams, so I decided to keep it to pro teams from the major US sports leagues only.

Well, for starters, have indigenous people complained about those? As in, to the extent of "if you asked one, either they'd have a problem with it or they'd at least know someone who does", not just "if you really, really look hard, you can find someone who'll say what you want them to". (Maybe not exactly the best examples, but you know what I mean.)
