This as well. DCFC for the absolute fun & originality of the name, or Warriors as a sneaky way to maintain their original mascot.
If you're speaking of the Warrior Chief emblem I think that unfortunately is gonna have to go and that's a damn shame. As its the best emblem in all of North American sports and likely the world.

Like I've been saying since this became an issue however many years ago. There's only 1 name that flows and sounds OK. That's the Warriors.

Renegades isn't terrible. The rest of those names suck swollen blue whale nuts.

Edit......... coach is right. Renegades is too amateurish. Fuck that to. Warriors or bust baby.

Just call them "Lancers," keep the Burgundy helmets or change them to Gold. Add the updated lance on the sides of the helmet with those 70th anniversary uniforms and they are set for the next 10 years or so.

I actually like "Renegades" or "Warhawks," the latter has a much better sound and flow to it than "Warriors." BTW: it also fits perfectly into the song, go ahead and try it now!! (Uniform = keep the solid Burgundy helmets or change them to Gold to top that Silver shit with the star on it. Add the updated lance on the sides of the helmet with those 70th anniversary uniforms.

Why can we not be the Warriors and keep the chief logo emblem? What a great representation of the Proud Chief Indian Warriors! Never mind, its common theme these days to rid ourselves of all US history.

Somehow, some people claim that the logo is also racist because it perpetuates a stereotype.

What G said. That and some have argued it reduces Native Americans to nothing more significant than a mascot for a team that's predominantly young black men and owned by an old white guy,

The warrior chief is not coming back. Hell I've read objections to naming the team the Warriors. Some people want to total distancing from everything Native American, but damn. Every culture, every ethnic group etc etc has had warriors among them at some point in time. Warriors isn't a Native American thing. Its a people from every part of the world thing.

Why was the Indian chosen in the first place? It was too honor the area where DC is. The entire state of Maryland essentially has Indian names. Why did they choose the warrior chief? Like you said, every culture has had warriors...ever heard of the warrior spirit? Why the chief in particular? Because it looks bad ass.

People want to make something out of nothing. They want to create victims and strife because there is big money in it.

DCFC is cool
Warriors is fine.
Renegades is meh.

The others are dumb.

The Steelers fan isn’t funny at all, but he is persistently stupid.

I agree and disagree in this respect, the logo isn't the issue the name is, there's a difference between the two but I get that in order to make the wrong seem valid bunching them as one and the same is a must. It's true, Native American names are everywhere throughout the country, but they are actual names of tribes or individuals not some made up shit like the previous name here.

Gotta ask because I get the connection between the past and use of "Warriors," but what are your thoughts on "Warhawks?"
