I think it's stupid. That Chief Wahoo logo is cool IMO and the caps are among the best in baseball.

Actually I didn't really care about Chief Wahoo, I just wanted to be "that guy" who always needs verification of everything with a link. On a side note, I did click on the link and from there it brought me down a path where I checked out a story about former NFL running back Jamal Anderson being given a citation, which included this snippet

Edmisten said Anderson was cooperative and officers issued a trespassing warning, meaning if Anderson returned to the QuikTrip he would be arrested.

“There was nothing out of the ordinary, outside of him masturbating in the store,” Edmisten said.

The Chief Wahoo thing doesn't bother me much, but I do think it's time to retire "smallpox blanket" giveaway night.

I agree with this, it is one of the best logos and I will miss it.

They have been phasing him out for years, but I am still happy to see him on their uniforms. I am sure they will still have a uniform that will contain the Wahoo logo, but I am worried he will get kept on alternates or 3rd jerseys. That just sucks. The block C the Indians use is just not great looking.

It is just the beginning.

The day is coming when there is no longer a team in Major League Baseball called the Cleveland Indians.

That day is probably not for a couple years if at all. "Indians" isn't derogatory like "Redskins" and isn't getting as much push.

I don't know if I could get behind them going back to being the Cleveland Spiders. It just doesn't feel right.

@SlinkyRedfoot, you'd be welcomed with open arms among the Red Sox faithful!

Believe it or not, I used to be a BIG Red Sox fan. I went to school in Boston for a bit in the 90's and I loved the history of Fenway. I've been to a bunch of games there. Even when I moved back to Ohio, I'd go back once a year to catch a game, usually a NYY/BOS game. 2006 was the last time I was there. 2007 was when I renounced my fandom.

Only team I dislike more now is the White Sox.

Hey, @ChiSoxFan, Christmas is almost here:
