FedEx asks Redskins to change name
Here we go. I think part of the reason we’ve been safe from this kind of stuff is because the Redskins have always been a bigger target. Now that there’s pressure from sponsors Snyder is going to feel the heat like never before. If they go down, make no mistake, the mob will come for us next. |

The Chiefs name isn't the trendy social media fake outrage of the day. I hope the Redskins never change their name. They're like a barrier for us. They have to get them before they'll come for us.

If one changes they all will. Kansas City or KC would work because people use it anyway.

I could argue it both ways.

Let's be honest, Chiefs is not even remotely offensive compared to Redskins. Chiefs pays homage to actual leaders of Native American tribes, actual positions of power and leadership that exist throughout many different groups. We don't have a picture of a Native American as our logo, we have a wolf as our mascot, and we have an arrowhead as our brand, the deadly part of all arrows that exist throughout archery, hunting, etc. You can say the tomahawk chop is offensive, but good luck getting a stadium of 75000 to stop that regardless if you don't play the music to it.
IMO the Redskins and Indians can go through the name and mascot changes, the Braves and Chiefs shouldn't be forced to make any changes. |

If you find yourself constructing a reasoned argument against the name change (a change that is inevitable, IMHO), you’ve already misunderstood the situation. Reason will be a weak and ineffective tool in this situation. Money is your only real lever—if you can find the will to push your collective weight against it. Even then, your opponents probably outweigh all of you.

Looks like Snyder’s finally going to do it.

Braves, Indians, Chiefs—They’ll all be history quickly. There’s simply no consequence to getting rid of the names and imagery
