Cleveland Indians will remove Chief Wahoo logo from their uniforms

I think most of us agree that the logo is pretty racist, but we disagree when it comes to other logos and if they are racist or not. Its hard to look at each logo individually and draw a standard to decide if its racist or not. 

All in all, im glad they are getting rid of the logo. 

When I look at the name Redskins or the Indians logo (and the Cheifs, now that I think of it) I see one thing most of all...redness.  So red.  Let's not call this the PC movement so much as the "geez, let's try a wee bit of subtlety for a change" movement. The Boston Celtics can be green, the fighting Irish can be blue and gold, Vikings can be purple and gold, Steelers can be black and gold, Raiders can be black and silver, Canadian Hockey teams named after Canadians aren't all white, Bears can be blue, Eagles can be green so on and so forth.

Team named after a Native/tribe/rank...make it red. RED RED RED. Their skin is red, make it red. It's so on the nose. I'm not saying it shouldn't exist, but to act like there isn't some sort of underlying theme of simple labeling is just delusional.
