cleveland is no longer considered the indians

I understand what you are saying. I'm just bringing back a quote from an old TV show Room 222 in which a brand new teacher asks a co-worker if he prefers being called "colored" or "black". His response was "I've always preferred Pete".
Collectively, the Tribe here prefers being called Meskwakies.

Wow, I never thought I'd see a Room 222 reference. You must have gotten one of those old school antennas so you can watch the ME channel or something.

Doubtful.

It’s a nice story though.

fair enough. I'm Almost that old so I am aware of Room 222 but for some reason that one didn't get as much run in syndication in the 80's like Gilligan's Island, the Brady Bunch, Odd Couple and some other shows.
