I’m a Cleveland Indians fan. I accidentally wore my Chief Wahoo hat into a gas station on an Indian reservation while in NW Washington state, the attendant refused to let me buy anything and asked me to leave. I completely understand why they want it changed.
Bleeds sold out!

I understand 100% why they want it changed and I agree 100% with Snyder having the right to keep his business named whatever he wants. If they lose their rights to the name then I expect to see other as racially hurtful names removed the patent office list.

Any team that includes a former Charlotte 49er (assuming it is not one of my “Teams I want to lose”)[/quote]
This makes sense to me, but I would kind of like to spank UNC-W. I like Ingram and Bryan, and I do wish them well, but there is a part of me that wishes they were coming to Halton for a one-and-done where we just flayed them. I want players to think that coming off the bench at Charlotte is much better than starting for a lesser team. Maybe I am dreaming.[/quote]
I agree…but I was thinking more about “pro teams” with former Niner players/coaches than other college teams (of course with the one exception I noted).[/quote]
That was the way I took it. As far as I am concerned, if you transfer out, you are NOT a Niner.
NWA I understand Native Americans who are offended, even if I disagree. I don’t understand white people that get mad for NA’s when the majority of NA’s polled aren’t offended, that’s straight up white guilt BS.
The Trademark Office does NOT have a right to take away an offensive patent. There is no Constitutional right to not get offended, therefore the Trademark Office HAS to recognize offensive phrases for copyrights.
Ninercentral, once a Niner, always a Niner.
