Default well
Most of the comments I read on the web thought that changing the patch was stupid. I saw several Indians and others saying they were not offended at all. As a matter of fact the overwhelming majority of respondents (I read ) were pissed off about the change.

If the change was made for political correctness, isn't the tomahawk also an image of Indian savagery? I agree this change hasn't really accomplished anything. But I also think it's a small issue.

My high school was Seneca REDMEN and had a lopey indian with a tomahawk behind his head throwing it. It has since been changed to the Redhawks.....famous alumni (other than me) include Wes Unseld (Washington Bullets HOFer) and Diane Sawyer.....of ABC news......

I just wish they'd lose the whole "Tomahawk Chant". Political correctness aside, I find it extremely annoying and refuse to watch any Braves home game because of it.

"Whooooooah Oooooooh Ooooooooh..." STFU!!!!

I liked the comments in the "Comments" about making the "scalpers" change their name too.
