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.

Mascot could have been somebody playing a guitar. Wouldn't have offended anybody. Hell, many locals might have even embraced it.

Probably makes too much sense for the woke crowd, though.
Rocker, are Shawn and Marty the mascots?

I saw on the news this AM they chose Guardians as the name because an old bridge in Cleveland have statues built into them that are called "The Guardians." OK, but still, there would have been a dozen better names. The Rocks or Rockers would have been great.

I don't understand how bad the names of some of the new teams are.

Las Vegas Golden Knights
Cleveland Guardians
Almost every team in MLS

The Kraken is actually a cool name for Seattle, but that is it.
