They couldn't do any better than that? Who in the hell is intimidated to play a Guardian?


I mean too be fair, MLB has teams named after socks, colors and one team just called the Athletics.

Shame they are changing their name, but they could just go the old school route. The “Cleveland Baseball Club” sounds better than the freaking guardians with that busted arse logo. Looks like the capitol letter “G” using a baseball as a walker.

But honoring a people group that had a profound impact in the original inhabitance of that area seems cool.


If you really want to honor the group of people then name them after one of the tribes of the area, don’t use a term that a white explorer called them cause dumbass didn’t know where the hell he was.

If would be no different than if I wanted to honor someone named Steve. When I first met Steve someone else told me his name was John. I found out his name was Steve but I am going to honor him by calling this thing John.

Anyone think the Braves will have to or will otherwise volunteer to change their name? The day that happens I’m picking a new team.
