I think this is a good step in the right direction and yet I also find it odd how in two major American sports there are outcries against some Indian themed things and not others.
In baseball there are still the Braves.
In football a bunch, myself included, are against the racist name of "Redskins."
And yet there are still the KC Chiefs and both the fans of them and the Braves do the "Tomahawk Chop" to stereotypical Indian sounding music from an old Cowboys killing Indians western.
Why doesn't anyone take that seriously and have an outcry against it?
I just don't understand why some Indian types of things in sports are more offensive than others.
