  • 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.

    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

      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

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!
