Saw there was a big movement by investors to target Nike, FedEx, and Pepsi to put pressure on Snyder to change the name.

They could go back to their original name when the franchise was founded in Boston... the Braves.

FedEx, really?

CEO is a minority owner as well.

The only more embarrassing name they could have is the Washington Senators.

When the Braves and Indians start getting targeted, I'll start getting worried.

It’s ****ing garbage, why don’t you google Red Mesa Arizona Navajo high school football team for just one example

There is no consensus among native Americans about this shit at all, it’s just a bunch of ****ing GARBAGE... we’re becoming a nation of SPOILED PUSSIES

Also, our Arrowhead is just Arrowhead. It isn't Arrowhead Field at Million Dollar Corporate Sponsor Stadium.

There are seven high schools in Iowa whose mascot is the Midgets.
