This Hipster Douchebag Named "Hampton " says the Chiefs should change their name NOW

So apparently this utter milquetoast pussy has written for ESPN and other nation-wide media. Who the **** is this "Hampton" emo queerbait? He sure does look intellectual though, I guess we better listen to him since he is obviously smarter than all of us.



Quote:
Kansas City's NFL franchise should change its name. It should do it now, before the Washington Redskins are forced to change.
The team should change names because it will make the ownership and city look progressive. The franchise should do it because, incidentally, it’ll make money for the team. But mostly the Chiefs should change its name because it's the right thing to do.
The name “Chiefs” is offensive. Granted, it isn’t as offensive as “Redskins” or Chief Wahoo, the Cleveland Indians’ grinning mascot. But, really, is “least offensive stereotype” where we want to set the bar?
We can do better. The “Chiefs” moniker, along with the Arrowhead logo and tomahawk chop, are blatant appropriations of Native American imagery for the purpose of making money. Worse yet, that Native American theme encourages the truly embarrassing spectacle of fans coming to games in fake headdress and warpaint. That’s not only offensive, it’s tacky — exactly the same as white folks putting on blackface.
Yes, the Chiefs are named in honor of a former mayor, “Chief” H. Roe Bartle. But Bartle got that nickname after founding the Tribe of Mic-O-Say — a Native American-based honor society in the Boy Scouts of America. In other words, more minstrel show-like appropriation of Native American imagery.

Yours with Justice & Wisdom,

Hampton Stevens

Sometimes you're just so far in the minority you should just shut the **** up! If this guy gave a shit about the plight of Native Americans he could spend his time working for charities geared toward helping improve the lives of impoverished Native Americans. I doubt he would though because it wouldn't give him the attention he craves.

How about the Chiefs be progressive by not taking dumb advice from douchebags?

Rather than be defensive about the Chiefs name, perhaps we should turn this around and think about whether a new name might provoke an even stronger connection with fans. For example, would we actually feel more warmly about the team if they were the Kansas City Barbecuers or the Kansas City Breastgazers?

The guy doesn't give one reason why Chief is an offensive term.

They shouldn't be allowed to use that.

Or fight sexual harassment, rape, domestic abuse and alcoholism that are huge problems on reservations and a battle actually worth fighting instead of this nonsense.

By that logic, then the Patriots are offensive to white people.
Also, one bear was offended by the use of the Bears logo

Why we are at it we need to get rid of words such as Commander and CHIEF and CHIEF Justice.....those are offense too.

People need to get real, the word Chief is a word for leadership or nobility to a group, much like a Royal or a Monarch.
