Kansas City Kick Ass

As the first of my three names, I'll go with Ermines. It's clearly a great contender.

As my second name, I'll go with Chameleons. We can get high tech uniforms that change to match our multi-colored field turf, and it'll confuse opponents. Plus, it's alliterative.

Still thinking about my third name.

Nothing wrong with Chiefs.

I was always fond of our former Hockey team.

Kansas City Scouts
or
Kansas City Jazz

The Kansas City Pitch

I think the name is safe. As mentioned, Chiefs is a term of respect unlike Redskins.

Gone will be the chop, the white woman riding in on a horse, stuff like that. And maybe at some point they'll update the helmet/look.

In today's cancel culture our old negro league baseball team KC Monarchs wouldn't survive.

Also speaking of Negro League Baseball Museum. When will it be changed to African American League Museum?

See, that's the disconnect. You assume people will act rationally. I have some really bad news for you, man.

If they change the name I'm out.

Kansas City Burnt Ends With a Side of Beans and Fries, hold the slaw.

Might be kind of hard to yell at the end of the Anthem though

Apparently there was a short-lived NFL team in Kansas City in 1924 called the Kansas City Blues. We could take that name and keep the red jerseys just to mess with people.

The Blues later became the Kansas City Cowboys, but Cowboys is a stupid name so we won't consider that.
