I ALMOST want to be happy the Indians lost in a meaningless play-in game now even though they won the wild card and should be facing Boston tomorrow. Almost.
Why is there less pressure on the Cleveland Indians, who have a less offensive name but a worse logo, than the Redskins who have a more offensive name but a far more tolerable logo?
There's not *that* much pressure on either. But it's easier to avoid using the Cleveland logo than it is to avoid using the name of the Washington football team.
True, but though I find the Cleveland team likeable in the abstract and want to root for them, every time I use the SportsCenter app and see their hideous minstrel logo, I remember why I don't.
