That name is the epitome of awfulness!!!!! What in high f_ck???????????

They should have no name at all, with just a bold, handwritten 'x' on the front of the jersey as a symbol of cancel culture. And perhaps any fan showing up in something with a Cleveland Indians logo on it should be immediately arrested.

Or better yet, call them the Cleveland Cortis, to memorialize the ITALIAN actor who played the fake, crying Indian in those memorable 1970 TV commercials, Espera Oscar de Corti. Quite apropos.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Now if they could just change the name "Cleveland" they'd really have something.

...I was really hoping they would go with Cleveland Steamers to really signify how this whole thing was handled.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at how awful this is. The Guardians? Ridiculous times

The name isn't great - a tribute to bridge pillars?!? - but, at the end of the day, I don't care. The owners are free to do whatever they want with the name.

I will always refer to them as the Indians.
I will always refer to the Washington football club as the Redskins.
Same for all other changes.

And I will ALWAYS stand for our National Anthem.

That's just me.
Bob
Besides, the Guardians? What a horrible name.

Do you say that Hank Aaron played for the Beaneaters? Did Mantle play for the Highlanders?
