They are coming for the chop too
The Kansas City Chiefs’ racist “Arrowhead Chop” has flown under the radar. Not anymore. The Kansas City Chiefs’ chant isn’t a tribute to people like me. It’s racist.

I was at the games when it started up- and anyone saying it was intended to mean- "taking a tomahawk and scalping someone to death" - are only trying to create a complete bullshit story to fit their ridiculous social justice narrative. It started because DT used to "chop" the ball out of QB hands when he sacked them to create a fumble. Who cares if other college teams did it- the Chiefs had their own reasons and it was encouraged by DT and other players. It creates a psychological advantage against the other team- they hate it- because it pumps up the players and crowd. Most of the people at the KC Star and other idiots who are complaining- are not even Native Americans. So the Chiefs should not care about their latest cry baby fit over an Arrowhead name, the chop or what fans in a free country decide to wear to a game. KC Star has zero integrity and are no position to tell the Chiefs or anyone else about "justice". |

It is only pos liberal rags like the KC Star and NY Times. Who both have a complete radical leftist agenda. "Oh no, the NY Times does not like something- we better stop!!" They should be more worried about the rampant crime in their city and corrupt mayor than what we are doing. |

It took them 10 years and Mahomes magic to find GEHA. Local sponsors are a dime a dozen. But the real money is in big corporations. National companies.

What should Arrowhead Stadium be changed to?
GEHA Stadium?

That’s not going to work. Racial approbation or however it’s spelled.

After the obvious racial name like Redskins, as Daface pointed out, where it’s an issue is imagery. We got rid of the white guy painted red riding around on game day. We get rid of the Arrowhead. Indian imagery, the stadium endorsed and promoted chop. We should be able to keep the Chiefs name.
Who’s going to be pissed off about a stadium named after Lamar Hunt?

About I'd say 800,000 people were doing the Tomahawk Chop during the parade celebration at the Station in Kansas City nothing can take that memory of me in the middle of that epic fun day I had.
Skip to 4:38:00 and you know what I mean You gotta fight for your right to Partay so haters can suck Deeze Nuts

So under different circumstances I would have no problem with the Chiefs dropping it, but not if it is part of a larger Woke Cancel Mania push to change everything about the franchise's branding. |

Looks like protests outside the SB about the Chiefs name and the chop. Probably planned by Brady.
