Chief Wahoo Discussion

[Bob_The_Cat]

Last one.

Let's take a page out of the Browns books and name the team after a franchise legend.

Cleveland Fellers

It'd be amazing to constantly hear things like:

"These Fellers are so hot right now"
"The Fellers are about to take the field"
"Here's the next three Fellers up to bat"
"Kluber's really lifting up the Fellers out there"

The chant: "Fellers, Fellers, Fellers..."
"Let's Go Fellers!"

Keep the same colors, just change the logo to a caricature of Bob Feller.

**Edit** A "feller" is also a person who cuts down trees. Essentially a lumberjack

Feel like this is only a temporary fix until a few decades from now when people find that offensive as well

People find just about anything offensive anymore in this day and age! There does need to be a line drawn on things otherwise it will keep going more and more out of control to the point people will sue/complain about how someone's natural hair looks.

7 things are true here.

Just get rid of Wahoo and create a respectful logo instead of Red Sambo. No need to rename the team.

Nope, I'm offended of Indians, Tribe, Redskins, Blackhawks, Warriors.

I'm offended that Notre Dame uses Fighting Irish!! There has to be a stopping point in these offensive names and eventually everything will offend someone

1 of these is literally an incorrect label.
1 of these was previously used primarily as a slur.

Why is that so hard for people to understand? Because race things can only be black-white?

Now I just don't want to change it because I feel pretty good about our chances to win a WS over the next 4 years and I don't want people jumping up and down saying it was always the curse of Chief Wahoo keeping us down

And people will do that

You're definitely right that people would do that, but honestly, who cares?

Let's win the World Series first then worry about that. Shit is hard enough as it is, as is evident after pooping away two of our best chances in the last 25 years over the past couple seasons.

Right. If we're lucky enough to win a World Series I'll be busy celebrating that. Won't have time to give a shit about people using Chief as a way to push their agenda.

I prefer to buy my beer in denominations of 12

Although the ring will have Wahoo.

12? Fancy. I can't remember the last time I bought less than a 30.
