- It's official. The Cleveland Indians will become the Cleveland Guardians effective at the end of this season.
hat made 'Guardians' stand out? According to owner Paul Dolan, the franchise sought a brand that "strongly reflects the pride, resiliency and loyalty of Clevelanders." Dolan believes that Guardians "embodies those defining attributes, while drawing upon the iconic 'Guardians of Traffic' proudly standing outside of Progressive Field on the Hope Memorial Bridge."
The Guardians of Traffic symbolize the progress and protection of transportation for anyone who passes by on the bridge. Each guardian holds a different vehicle in his hand -- a hay wagon, covered wagon, stagecoach, a passenger car and four other types of trucks.

This ruined my childhood all I ever cared for was the Cleveland Indians I now have to live with this I’m moving to Florida I’m done with Ohio’s crap
Chill its not that deep
Get over it. You're moving to an even more woke state
@@MarloSoBalJr no I’m moving to.a place where they are not democratic
Chief Wahoo is the real guardian
The Chief and Jobu, a great tandem.
The Guardians named after the Owners and Players protecting there Wallets.
What about the history of the Indians name? You know, how they named the team after an Indian player on the team (with his consent, of course)? I wonder what he would think if he saw his heritage getting dismantled like this
It is absolutely horrible its all just the start its all one big plan
@@damulletman6138 yes for sure.. Yankees giants browns are next
They want to change cleveland for bigger market......like that evil bitch in major league movies with charlie sheen
Two giants white guys guarding a bridge, how woke
They definitely need to do a better job then b/c the near west side is starting to look an awful lot like the east side nowadays...
no fan wanted this
Awful. Just terrible.
Yep as Charles Barkley would say
100 + years of tradition gone due to a few protesters! Ridiculous! Baseball is dead to me!
Dont worry in 10 years you won't even remember what an indian is
You're a lie... It wasn't a few. I'm from the east side and my momma banned us from wearing Chief Wahoo and Indians gear because it disrespected our Indian great grand parents... Stop being so white for once.
@@O.G.LIL-MANIim sick of fragile jagoffs who get offended by everything. Ridiculous!
@@O.G.LIL-MAN I'm not white I'm African American and you should wear chief wahoo if your a adult now
@@O.G.LIL-MAN shut the f up this is our country this is our sport
The Guardians are amazing statues, but we prefer the original name the Cleveland Indians.
Take away name Indians ? Ok Cleveland team should be called the , Tribals, Penobscot's after Louis, Navajo’s, Pueblos, Sioux's, Apache's out of respect then. Since the Indians name is so offensive ?
If Cancel Culture is going to complain about the name Indians, which Native Americans embraced the name and have called themselves the name, just how Native Americans called us "The White Man" which we embraced and could careless. Plus have seen the polls and interviews referring to Native Americans calling themselves Indian's. Not a big deal Cancel Culture Soycialist
Wasn't a good idea to change the name should have stayed the same js.
@Lewis Whedbee yeah and I don’t like pizza. What’s your point?
Guardians?....lmao wtf thought it was a good name???? Cleveland Baseball Team sounds way better an it took me 5 seconds to think of
We are all Clevelanders! Go Guardians!
Total nonsense. Embarrassing.
A bridge over a river that catches fire. Guardians is that a name for a brand of condoms?
Go 'dians! I'm just going to drop the first syllable.
Named for statues guarding traffic on the bridge? How lame.
Well at least it wasn't "Spiders" or "Rockers". I would have preferred "Barons."
Guardians sounds like a lame soccer team.
Fits like a catcher mitt.
New name. Like it.
Surprised the news name had nothing to do with electrity. Lol
I would make a long comment right now but I have to go out and play some cowboys and guardians....
Should've been the Tribe/Steamers
IN-dians GUAR-dians .... Same same but different
GUAR-dians IM -beciles....same not different
Probably so the new merchandise would be cheaper.
Like when Disney made stormtroopers red, have to put no effort I to it. Just minor changes and people think it's new.
A NEW "curse." Thanks so much.
Or it erases an old one 🤔🤷 we'll see
Close but no cigar on the ALDS. This team's got some moxy in them. Hoping they make a better rum next year.
What a joke!!! I hope: 1)People stop going to games and support other sports/leagues. 2)People do NOT buy anything that has that name. 3)People wear more often Cleveland Indians stuff.
I see Columbus Guardians i two seasons top
What if the bridge falls apart? Call the team cleveland rust belters?
They have already hinted that the Atlanta Braves, Kansas City Chiefs, Florida State Seminoles and the Chicago Blackhawks are all on notice.
and the Washington Red Skin
@@twogamer7149 They are now the Washington Football team,
Damn channel 3, can you PLEASE UPDATE YOUR ON SET VIDEO FEED. How do you introduce a story with a horribly imaged video that can't been seen correctly?
The took this hard laying on their backs uuuhhhhhh! Wesley Pipes!
I’ve never understood why anyone ever named any teams for any Indians. They lost. I’m a white man whose ancestors arrived here in 1619; why the hell would I support any teams named after Indians?
You know that Native Americans call them selfs Indians and are not offended !, from interviews and such
Just like Native Americans calling the Europeans The White Man, are American Europeans offended by this No
How about the British calling the American Patriots the Yankees 👇
British Origins
Like many of the songs that have become characteristic of American patriotism, the origins of "Yankee Doodle" lie in old English folk music. In this case, and somewhat ironically, the song emerged before the American Revolution as a vehicle for the British to mock American soldiers. "Yankee," of course, began as a negative term making fun of Americans, although the exact origins of the word are debatable. "Doodle" was a derogatory term that meant "fool" or "simpleton."
The American patriotic song "Yankee Doodle" is one of the most popular songs of the U.S. and is also the state song of Connecticut. However, despite its popularity and remarkably pervasive staying power, it started out as a song that made fun of American troops.
As Americans we embraced the name
So if you and Cancel Culture have such a problem with the name Indians ? Ok Cleveland team should be called the , Tribals, Penobscot's after Louis Sockalexis or called Navajo’s, Pueblos, Sioux's, Apache's out of respect then the name "Indians"
Indians is the best sports team name ever! I'm so pissed they changed it! I hate liberals!!
The name is fine with me it was either that or the Spiders. My only gripe is that they could've done a little better with the team logo. Oh well I guess that logo will grow on me eventually.
Spiders 10/10
What about the 'Tribe'?? Better than the Guardians
Gottta love the white wash
I wont call them that!!!
I hope that the owners of the Cleveland Guardians trademark sue the shit out of the Cleveland Indians and MLB. They shouldn't settle for a penny less than $100 million, or just hold on to the name and see them in court.
PATHETIC Guardians of what, what does it even mean? I thought when we cancelled Aunt Jemima, Uncle Bens' and the Land O Lakes brand characters we were all good. Meanwhile the individuals whining about all these are killing each other on a daily basis. I guess they'll go after the Chiefs and Braves next hope they stick to their guns and tell them piss off! The sad thing is most of the cancel culture crew doesn't even watch the sport
U forgot yankees browns giants
Go woke...you know the rest
best name would have been the cleveland oberlins
Cleveland Engines
I HATE the new name!
What's wrong with the Cleveland Tribe 🤷🏿♂️
Tribe is to offensive for woke lunatics
Considering the history of one Bridge owner firing cannonballs at it, they needed guarded!
Nahhh..
cringe
Man cut it out it out changing the name doesn’t do anything honestly the Native Americans should be more upset about the land that was stolen from their ancestors
Their ancestors stole it from other tribes, so it's all good.
