Indian Group Suggests Chief Wahoo is Racist!
Actually, I think the "New York Jews" hat is kinda cool. I'd like to have one. Maybe as a Christmas...errr...Hanukkah present???

I will only buy the NY Jews hat if I can talk them down on the price.

There's no way KC keeps its mascot if the momentum forces DC and Cleveland to change theirs.

Hopefully intelligence would prevail, and most people would see the difference between a cultural reference and a racial one.

At least the Chiefs won't have to change their name if it comes to that.

I'm on the other side of this one, you guys. Redskins is pretty ****ing ridiculous, as is the Cleveland mascot.
But Chiefs has got jack shit to do with native americans, so lick my nuts. |

Once the Redskins moniker falls, so too does KC's. Enjoy it all while you can.

The thing that always comes to mind for me is that a lot of Native American communities have issues with alcholism, diabetes, a high child mortality rate, obesity, etc. but let's concentrate on what's really hurting us; the names of professional sports teams.

I understand why Washington's name would be offensive, and Chief Wahoo looks like an old 1930's Loony Tunes stereotype cartoon. But calling a team the "Indians" or "Chiefs" is not meant to be demeaning. If anything, its a sign of reverence and respect.
Sorry, didn't mean to get serious. New York Jews season tickets are $250. But for you....$195!!! |
