Once they figure out that the Guardians are actually Curtis Sliwa's Guardian Angels, the Indiams will be searching for a new name. Maybe someone will be publishing a woke list so there will be no more errors.
OT: MLB and Cleveland Indians/Guardians, really?

Rockers because of the Rock & Roll HOF being located in Cleveland.
Go back to the Spiders handle they used before 1900.
There also was the Cleveland Blues,that's better than the (galaxy) Guardians in my opinion
( but the Blue Men of Morocco might object and another name change needed)
Maybe call themselves the Cleveland Walleyes after a Lake Erie fish
Steelheads after a species of trout in that lake might even be better than Guardians.
They should have gone with the Cleveland Thundercats!!!
Stole that name from the XFL's New York Guardians. The Rock needs to layeth the smackdown on their candy asses!
that'd be HUUUUUGE with the woke crowd
Another vote for Spiders over Guardians, not that my opinion matters. They could've had a guy in a spider suit as their mascot in the stadium... a Spider Guy!
Or they could've gone for the computer nerd world and made it the Cleveland Big Endians!

woke is such an overused term nowadays, but to each their own
Now to the issue on hand and for entertainment purposes only
Sneak preview of Cleveland Guardians uniform :
Guardians sounds and even looks like Indians. DIANS. Actually think it’s kinda of clever.
If you must give in to Woke crowd and erase any reference to Native Americans…
Be careful what you wish for…Warriors? Braves? Blackhawks? Who is next?

Guardians Of Cleveland Baseball Inspired By Iconic Guardians Of Traffic
The bridge’s guardians are icons for the city, imagined nearly a century ago, when Cleveland was the fifth largest city.

The woke crowd is considered a bunch of whiners, you are fitting in well by trying to hijack this discussion into one about people you whine about .
That said : I'll woke it up and whine about Cleveland choosing a name because of this:
is on a bridge there
A name that's already been changed multiple times before 😄 ...but history 😰
Drink every time someone uses the word “woke” to complain about something they don’t like.
As opposed to the good old days when women shut their mouths and got dinner on the table promptly, lessen they got some knuckles to the eye.
Amirite?!
Just keep an IV bag handy.
well the left is the most censoring and bigoted so not surprised. Funny how it's always one small subset that get's upset but when they survey native tribes they are all happy. tired of the indian bs and the rewriting of history. Love the Redskins name, loved the Indians name, love what FSU does
what's ironic here is that as a percent, women are more abusive than men and far more likely to be deadbeat moms. I do think with the incredible decline of husband on wife physical violence this is more apt in the 50s than 70yrs later no? amirite!
The subset that gets upset is you bitches. I couldn't care less what name a team in Ohio I've always rooted against goes by. Was fine with Indians, am fine with this. Will still be rooting against them.
Just look at this thread. The "left" is entirely dispassionate whereas angry cons going apesh4t ...again. Sad!
well if you're going to spout off stupidly at least do so with better pinache than citing 70yrs happenings lest you look foolish.
back on point, it's a fking joke to rename the Indians. How the fk is the Indians name offensive?
I for one would like to welcome the new expansion team the Cleveland Guardians to the Arena Football league.
This shit never ends. You really are reaching when you find the name Indians or Braves offensive. What's next?
Feels like it's time for another rightard boycott!!! If every huge Indian fan in this thread just goes on full-time fan stike, you'll bring the organization to its knees ...just like you bros did in every other most successful past boycott.
Oh, wait ...I guess that won't work since you guys are already boycotting every sport ever, especially the woke mlb.
Oh well, I'm sure there'll be something else to get enraged about soon enough.

Black widow hourglass shape on the hat.
Eight eyes of the jumping spider hat for alternate/Sunday hats.
Eight fuzzy Tarantula legs drooping down from a hat they can sell to kids.
Big fuzzy Phanatic-like Spider mascot.
Cleveland Rainbows it is! They're gonna sell a million flags!
Cleveland Commies? They'll sell a lot of those flags too sadly,
Oh it's coming. I'm waiting for the Harvard and Rutgers name changes. We seem to have let them slide for some reason.
Also I think that's what they were thinking on the -dians suffix but it ended up lame.
To me Indians was about as far as it should go. Chief Wahoo HAD to go. That caricature was too much and I'm the antithesis of woke.
Fightin' Irish? THAT'S RACIST.

The American Flag comes to mind as recently been linked to causing emotional pain to some on the Left.
This isn't part of your Woke Culture? I'm curious as to why you think they made the change.
