Is it really about whether it's specifically a slur or not? I always thought it was because it's in a set of things that include a bunch of bloodthirsty animals. Does a specific race of human beings really fit in the set of professional sports mascots with Tigers, Lions, Marlins, and so on? Kind of a bad look. Whether they mean it to or not, there's an equivalency implied there.
Should go back to the somewhat older practice of picking some local flair as your mascot. They could be the Atlanta Ted Turners or something idk. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

The Indians had been phasing out the name and Chief Wahoo for like the past decade or so. It seemed to be something they were trying to get ahead of and then do before it became a huge outcry. They knew this was going to happen eventually and got ahead of it some.

yankees are only offensive to southerners I thinkThe word yankee was coined by the British to denigrate the American colonists, who turned around and started using it themselves as a point of pride. Later southerners used it as a slur for northerners. --- Vegy is a 30 year old man, who's pretending to be a 60 year old woman that likes to act like a 57 year old man that pretends to be a horny 16 year old boy. ...
