Re: MLB Off-Topic
Cleveland just announced they are dropping Indians from their name starting immediately. New name to be announced in next 3 weeks...

Re: MLB Off-Topic
In NFL I would be fine with Washington Football Club (Washington FC) since they use names like that for soccer, so having a football team like that would be fine.

In baseball, I cant imagine Cleveland Baseball Club.

Not sure if they could change name so fast to get new merch out or a logo. Cleveland Spiders would be a nice one.

The logo I mentioned here a while back would be a good choice.

Re: MLB Off-Topic
According to the short article I read, their two options are

A) retaining the nickname through 2021, then adopting the new identity starting in 2022, or

B) following Washington's example and having a generic name in 2021.

My two favorite picks for the new identity are the Spiders and the Municipals. At first I hated the second one, but it's grown on me that it's similar to Nationals (and *technically* Metropolitans).

Cleveland GTFO sounds great. It's got my vote.

An article I read said that the Naps is one of the leading names as well...

I could not possibly agree with this any more than I do!
