Things need to change because of political u cultured ideology. This is what happens when people are clueless about truth and just make decisions based on emotions.

The Washington Football Team even sounds better than the Cleveland Guardians. :brownbag

The left wing liberals have gone over the edge. There's nothing wrong with Cleveland Indians, Atlanta Braves or Washington Redskins.
Guardians might be worst name in MLB, replacing the Padres.

Padres are a solid nickname. Plus they have a tie in to the History and community

It's a dumb name. No doubt. Though if the branding was better they could've convinced me.
It seems there could have been a lot of local tie ins there but ….Guardians? Of what? Lake Erie?

I don’t LOVE the name, but I think they did fairly well, all things considered. Is “guardians” really worse than “cubs” or “dolphins.” Nope. Plus they keep much of the historic look: inDIANS vs. guarDIANS.

Did you get those straws you were grasping for?

I’ve got no idea what straws you think I’m grasping. The new name DOES stylistically resemble the old one. That isn’t grasping for straws. And “guardians” has more gravitas than some team names like the “penguins.” Again, not grasping for straws. The name isn’t my favorite, but it isn’t as bad as y’all are making it out to be.
