If they're getting rid of the Chief Wahoo logo, why aren't they getting rid of the name as well?
Isn't the word "Indian" supposed to be offensive to Native Americans?
The stupidity of political correctness.
Actually there are quite a few Native American organizations with "American Indian" in the name, so I'd guess protests to the name are from white folk trying to tell everyone else what is and isn't offensive to them.
I do agree the logo is pushing it, though it could also be argued it's a caricature. Look at the Padres friar mascot. Is that an actual portrayal of a friar? I think some people take things too seriously.
