What a shame. This is the worst shit ever.

Personal, I'd go with 'kids with terminal cancer' but to each his own.

Spiders would have been dope.  Ah well.  

I like Spiders.

Also Ants, Beetles, Crickets, Cicadas...

Can someone explain why Spiders is better than Guardians?

Because there was a team called the Cleveland Spiders back when AO was just a wee lad.

Guardians is a stupid name. The name and logo look like one of those custom made teams in MLB The Show

I wonder who the Indianswin.com's version of Light The Halo is to tell the board that the controversy will last a month or two, then you'll never hear about it again.

I'm sure tp9001 will keep bringing it up as if it were relevant.

It was the original Cleveland pro team name, Cy Young played a good chunk of his career there, and the uniforms/hats/apparel possibilities would have been pretty cool.

There were also teams called the Brooklyn Trolly Dodgers, the New Haven Nutmegs, and the Cincinnati Redlegs.

Figures New Haven would name their team Nutmegs.

I'm sure New Era and company would have found a way to screw up those logos, too.

I'm curious about how actual Indians fans feel about the name.

Dot or Feather?

Fans of the team with the hands-down, worst, most bastardized, red-headed stepchild name in North America are complaining about the Indian's new logo.  You can't make this crap up.

Almost as bad as The Los Angeles Angels….almost.

I'd love to see a New Era company basketball game. Just nothing but dudes missing break away layups and bricking free throws.

You can leave the Devil Rays out of this.
