What does changing a baseball team's name have to do with participation trophies?
True! I saw nothing in the post you quoted that spoke of "participation trophies"! Which I absolutely hate!
I think things like Rocks and Rockers were considered, but ultimately nixed because of the similarity of the name to Colorado Rockies.
I would have thought Spiders, but I like Guardians, and there’s plenty of articles online the mention the connection of the name to the city.
The logo and colors however…
Personally, it could have been worse.... I know they use to be the spiders but I am so glad they didn't go back to that. I don't mind Guardians.... I like how they can make the name similar looking on jerseys to Indians. It has some awkward to the bridge so it isn't like it is out of nowhere. I will say the logo needs some tweaking.
The other name that I like that had a tie to the city really well in my opinion was The Cleveland Rockers...... with having the rock and roll hall of fame. and it flows.
How clueless are you people? There has already been a team called the Cleveland Rockers, and that was the short lived WNBA team that nobody watched!
People are trying t jump down the Indian's throats for not "doing their research"! How about they do the same!
