The names of those teams (Chiefs, Indians, Blackhawks) is not a derogatory term towards their race.
Would it be ok if a professional team called themselves "spooks"
I am African American and my grandmother was Cherokee. I do not see those names, or any, offensive. But many in my grandmother's tribe are very offended because of the likeness portrayed with the name. They do not want either.
So to you they may not be derogatory, but to someone else they are.
Just saying...
