A fan in Toronto tried to have the Chief Wahoo logo banned during the ALCS, and commissioner Rob Manfred said he plans to meet with the Indians to discuss the logo's future this offseason.
I want to meet any real Indians who are offended.

Good. Now that NFL team from Washington needs to follow suit and change its name..
So you want the team in Washington to dishonor Native Americans because they were named for a Native American who was the HC at the time in Boston?

Only offended if you do not give them a bribe or kickback. See North Dakota for reference.

Are people that could/should be offended by these things actually offended, or are there just a bunch of people offended on behalf of others?
Serious question.

I have worked with several native guys out here and they have all told me they arent particularly bothered by the name itself, and that there are far greater issues facing their people than the name of a sports team
