There's a great article out today on our Kansas City Chiefs. It gives background--again--on how they got their name (everyone should know by now) but more. It also tells why it really MIGHT be racist and wrong and then finally, what we could, in fact, change the name to.
KC Chiefs: Three alternate mascot names we could live with
I have to say, the proposed names pleasantly surprised me. I didn't think anyone could, would or did, yet, come up with any good options but these 3 sound great:
- Blues (not the Smokin' Blues, just the Blues, however)
- Qs (as in BBQ) and
- Bucks (after Buck O'Neill)
Great ideas, as I said. I could definitely live with any of those, at least. (But Wolves? No. Please, no).
GO CHIEFS!!!
At least for now.
