re: Most won’t care but the Chiefs organization just informed fans no more Indian gear.

Are they going to change the shape and name of Arrowhead Stadium?


Not shaped like an Arrowhead.

Name - every stadium name is for sale to the highest bidder.

Lol, this is so dumb. General people don't know enough about the history of the tribes that were here. Are we just going to pretend they didn't exist? Like wtf?

Good for the Chiefs. It's time we move on from naming things after Native Americans. Cleveland, Washington, Atlanta, it's time to move on. We should remove all mascot naming and any thing possibly related to their culture. All traces or any connotation. In fact, it should be the furthest thing from our minds... I think.

What if a real Indian chief went to the game dressed like himself to support his favorite team the chiefs?

Can we get a thread for all the people who "are done" with certain sports so we can call them out on it during the season when they're commenting on games? Because we all know they're gonna watch and this is their own virtue signal.

"The Autumn Wind is a pirate.
Blustering in from sea,
With a rollicking song, he sweeps along,
Swaggering boisterously.
His face is weather beaten.
He wears a hooded sash,
With a silver hat about his head,
And a bristling black mustache.
He growls as he storms the country,
A villain big and bold.
And the trees all shake and quiver and quake,
As he robs them of their gold.
The Autumn Wind is a Raider,
Pillaging just for fun.
He'll knock you 'round and upside down,
And laugh when he's conquered and won."


I bet there aren’t 3 people in this thread who have the right voice in their head when they read this.

Isn't acknowledging someone as Chief the same as calling them superior? It's Native American supremacy but that's still not good enough?

Y’all do realize that Christopher Columbus thought he was arriving in India and that’s why he called them Indians?

So, they plan on keeping the Chiefs and the logo?

Wait until they come after the Saints because Christians.

ETA: Goddammit. I didn't think any of you would go for that exact image.

What about their logo/name?



They may be okay with the Chiefs name but not okay with some of the imagery. This shouldn't come as a shock to anyone, given the current state of popular culture.
