Spoiler: And here's a example of the Cleveland Indian's logo. Spoiler: I think it's a brilliant shirt, these same people who are complaining are perfectly fine with reducing an ethnicity to a mascot and having teams named after a derogatory term to describe said ethnicity yet they'll act like they're the victims of some great injustice (which they're fine with when it's affecting any other ethnicity bar their own) when someone parodies that attitude with a shirt design. |

One of the most common anti-shirt responses has been along the lines of, “What would happen if Mike Greenberg wore an ‘African-Americans’ shirt on-air?”
Wow, talk about missing the point. |

I personally think that maybe the word Indians should be trying to get a different meaning amongst the Native Americans, like how black people are doing it with the N word so that one day our future generations can use these words without thinking back to these days of where the words are seen as prejudiced. Btw I honestly don't get why people are moaning about him pointing out that the name and logo is a bit dodgy? Imo the team should either change the logo, or change it's name.

They asked him to remove the shirt and he refused, when asked about the shirt once and he replied 'it was clean' why didn't they then leave it alone? if they didn't want it to be the focus of the interview why press him on it further?
I feel his reasoning is justified.

Why can't people make a statement without being elected? There are many more platforms than just politics to make a stand about something and he's got the right to do it whether you like it or not. |

Then what's the issue he wishes to make his opinion known, the station gave him a platform to do it ...what's the problem?

tbh, it looks like a small jab at white people to me... but it's just a shirt and its been designed to cause controversy and i just dont really care that much when nothing will happen about it anyway
