The Cleveland Guardians?
https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/23/clev...guardians.html
The Major League Baseball team in Cleveland is changing its name to Guardians, the franchise announced Friday, dropping the controversial "Indians," by which it had been known for more than a century. |

Okay the ones I'll actually stand by are Monarchs, Yardbirds, and Nighthawks. My main point is just that there are tons of KC-specific things you could pull from and it's a fun exercise. Tradition is nice and all but I just don't see change like this as inherently negative.

IF we ever did get to the point where the Chiefs had to change their name, would the league let us use Monarchs or are they trying to save that for London?

I have Norwegian and Irish ancestors, I demand the Vikings and Fighting Irish change their names.
Just kidding, I'm not an over-sensitive, effeminate little bitch. |

Barkevious Mingo really could have used this when he played for the Browns.
Police: Why are you with this young boy? Are you a parent? Mingo: I'm a Guardian. Police: Oh. Okay. Never mind. |
