Well...
Would say "go get 'em Bill" if he wasn't such a doofus. Apologizing for him is like apologizing for Trump (sorry, The Don!!!).
Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...
Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

I'm sure Bill is taking this well.

Wait...didn't he write that exact same article a few years ago after the Braves promptly removed the Chief Nocahama(sp?) logo from a special ST jersey in response to backlash?

How about 'Lord Jess Getahit'?

The Telegraph’s sports editor claimed on Twitter that the piece was pulled because Shanks “had a better idea for a column.”
I'm absolutely certain this is not true.

I know the sports editor of The Telegraph a little bit. He's pretty progressive, so I can't imagine him being OK with it.
Would YOU want to bring back a racially insensitive mascot for no reason at all?

I like the Chief.
Injuns, for all their history of losing wars, sure get butthurt about being revered for their (likely fictional) warrior skills and intimidation.
Seems like old pale-skins are doing them a favor by perpetuating the myth that they were fearsome and awesome.
Not as smart as Meta, but way smarter than Zito.
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
It made bigger waves than I thought. Even the radio guys in KY were taking a KY Derby break to discuss the issue.
How many more years before the Braves names gets the Redskins treatment?
