Well, it is now official.
The Cleveland Indians' logo--Chief Wahoo--was retired a full year ago. (And his excessive grin was, indeed, rather silly-appearing.)
But now the team name--the "Indians" was named after a former player, Louis Sockalexis, who was a Penobscot Indian--has given way, after more than a century, to the bland term "Guardians."
In another sport, the Washington Redskins is already a thing of the past. (They just have never received a replacement name.)
Who will be next?
The Atlanta Braves? (They say that they will never change their team name. But time will tell, I suppose.)
The Kansas City Chiefs?
The Chicago Blackhawks?
Thw Golden State Warriors?
Or, perhaps, someone else?
