I actually saw the same “ad” on Mlb.com on Thursday, before the game! Not nice, not nice.
Just who do the Indians think they are? The Red Sox in 2003?http://noho-missives.blogspot.com/images/fenway.jpg
Well, as they like to remark at the Jake: We’ll always have free parking!
HERE WE GO RED SOX HERE WE GO!!!!
Does anyone know which “Bldg. 19” will be stocking those?
Being from Natick – where we recently decided to eliminate the “Redmen” mascot — I was shocked after a closer inspection of the Cleveland Indians logo, and surprised that there wasn’t more of a stink made about it during the playoffs. The Cleveland Indians logo looks exactly like the equivalent of Lil Black Sambo, except it’s an Indian instead of an African American. The big sh*t-eating grin is too much. The movement against Indian logos has swept the nation’s high schools and colleges. Why are the Cleveland Indians apparently immune to criticism? Am I missing something?
Uh, Tim, ever heard of the Washington Redskins? Many of your Congressmen have season tickets. Or how about the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame? Nothing says I’m proud to be Irish like a drunk leprechaun flashing his fists.Or the San Diego Padres, perhaps? The first thing the Spanish missionaries did after landing in Southern California was form a baseball team. After they slaughtered any locals who wouldn’t convert to Catholicism, that is.Why single out the Indians?
