Now that we have Mahomes, I’d go with The Kansas City Manifest Destiny

The early pioneers and settlers simply adopted the established names that were already in use. While "Chief" implies a certain amount of respect, I don't see much "commemorating". How many people In Arrowhead would know an actual Chief's name that wasn't in a disney or John Wayne movie? European settlers did terrible things to the Native Americans and then left the remaining survivors with nothing. NAs see right through that hollow meaningless appropriation disguised as some sort of honor??? |

H Roe Bartle was the chief for his boy scout association, not for his mayor duties. It is used as a deflection for sure but it is wishful thinking that it was about the mayor role. If you look at a picture of him in his boy scout chief get up, you can see it is clear appropriation of the type people sort of agree is problematic.
It is highly likely some of the associations utilized in marketing and game day experience are going to change. People should start to find ways to enjoy the new ideas or make some suggestions. I wanted them to change it a few years ago to shake up the losing culture from the foundation. Now we have a hero who did that for us! I personally don't give a shit what they call the team. I would hope the red sticks around so hoping they find a suitable name for that bold red. |

As an update, I'll start this up as soon as I finish the interstate road trip tournament, which only has two polls left. I'll scan the thread to identify the serious nominations and we'll be off and running like Warpaint after a touchdown.*
* - Please do not envision Warpaint since our hypothetical scenario will result in Warpaint no longer existing.

SJWs will come after most teams for one reason or another. All I know is that as a celebration of all things LGTBQ, the Denver Broncos are safe.

I think that's a serious contender. I'd vote for it.

We shouldn't stop until we've eliminated all traces of their culture. It's the right thing to do.

The name can change but in the History of events it was the Kansas City Chiefs that won Super Bowl IV and Super Bowl LIV.
It was also the Washington Redskins that gave the Broncos one of the worst beatings in Super Bowl History so you can change the name but you can't change the history of the names.

Cavemen/people would require little change. Missouri caves, arrowhead, drums, feathers, chopping up a mastadon after the kill. Just add loincloths for the cheerleaders.

I think it's pretty probable that the Redskins name will get changed first so you can use that as a marker for when it's time to seriously consider the situation for the Chiefs.
