Because of marketing. They symbol and name are brands worth billions, and he doesn't have enough vision to realize the possibilities. Plus, he's not only a Napoleonic power-horder but a jock-sniffer, and he's stubborn. Eventually, the name will change, probably after some legal action, and certainly not without him kicking and screaming the whole way.

But the answer to the OP is no. Think about each name in context of a different ethnicity. "Blackskins" or "Yellowskins" wouldn't fly very far either, but "Generals", "Kings", or "Presidents" are largely accepted. The Native American lobby has only so much influence; no one will ever be able to remove every trace of Native (Chiefs, Indians, Braves, Blackhawks, Seminoles, and on and on) not to mention racial (Vikings, Celtics, Yankees, Canucks, Spartans) presence in sports team naming.

Redskins will change. Hopefully the Indians mascot will go, too, eventually. Other than that, don't hold your breath.

I wonder how many Kansasian fans we'd lose if we were the Missourians. We'd most definitely Sauto, for sure.

How bout the Kansas City Montanians??? It'd cover a state that may have some Chiefs fans as well as our most famous San Fran backup QB (minus the shitty part with Joe Cool).

I KNOW!!! HOW BOUT THE KANSAS CITY pillowbiterGOTS!!!!

Seriously though, if the actual definition of "pillowbitergot" was used and not associated with the derogatory term (as it obviously would)...it would be somewhat bad ass.... In The Dictionary, "pillowbitergot" is defined as:

1.) a bundle of sticks or twigs, esp when bound together and used as fuel

2.) a bundle of iron bars, esp a box formed by four pieces of wrought iron and filled with scrap to be forged into wrought iron

Holy shit... I now understand why I've seen the term, "pillowbitergot" so many times on here... I had no idea that the derogatory term for "homosexual" that begins with an "F" was filtered as "pillowbitergot."

LMAO.

KC RTNMWLEE for short...

Do we want a WNBA/Arena/XFL-type name?

The Kansas City Futility

The word Chief is a god damn french word. It applies to a number of things. Further its not what the team was named after.

We could relate it to our current team-building strategy:

The Kansas City Isolationists

We could name it after a large drafturbator segment of the fan base...The Kansas City Constant Piss and Moaners

If Prison Bitch gets banned, will Alex Smith 4Ever be next?

The Kansas City Turtle Heads

The Kansas City Fizzling Sparklers (my wife came up with that one).

With the Chief fans' high octave during games and the Chiefs' players tendency to shit their pants, I think The Kansas City Deafening Defecators would be fitting.
