Obviously I never gave it much thought, or gave a shit, but it seems like Cleveland Rockers would have been a better choice. The logo could have been a baseball with a guitar neck coming out of it, or a guitar with baseball stitching on it. Direct tie in to a local tourist draw. Mascot could have been somebody playing a guitar. Wouldn't have offended anybody. Hell, many locals might have even embraced it.

Probably makes too much sense for the woke crowd, though.

Rocker, are Shawn and Marty the mascots?

I think the "Cleveland Karens" would be perfect.

Just a bit outside.

I saw on the news this AM they chose Guardians as the name because an old bridge in Cleveland have statues built into them that are called "The Guardians." OK, but still, there would have been a dozen better names. The Rocks or Rockers would have been great.

They paid Tom Hanks to help ‘sell’ it.

Charlie Sheen in the Wild Thing uni would have been better...

I don't understand how bad the names of some of the new teams are.

Las Vegas Golden Knights
Cleveland Guardians
Almost every team in MLS

The Kraken is actually a cool name for Seattle, but that is it.

Nobody gave a shit about what some 1/16th Cherokee larper thought.

It all started going down hill when they allowed Sunday liquor sales.
