TKC BREAKING NEWS!!! PROGRESSIVES PUSH FOR KANSAS CITY CHIEFS NAME CHANGE AS REDSKINS AND INDIANS RETHINK CONTROVERSIAL MONIKERS!!!
The branding of the Kansas City Chiefs and controversial 'Arrowhead Chop' is getting harder to justify as the #BlackLivesMatter movement and a progressive cultural revolution has already started to transform longstanding local symbols.
Before their Super Bowl win, the Kansas City Chiefs endured national scrutiny and "the chop" was politely ignored by national TV broadcasts. Whilst locals LOVE the Arrowhead tradition, the insulting faux war cry has been undeniably out of favor among the media elite for at least a decade and was unmentioned as road warrior fans dominated the Super Bowl crowd with the contentious gesture and gibberish chant.
Amateur cowtown historians attempt to salvage the racist legacy by noting that the Kansas City Chiefs were named for old school Mayor H. Roe Bartle. But even this cultural appropriation tribute doesn't hold up well over time.
In an even more effective defense of the name, The Kansas City Chiefs front office has incorporated tribes in their branding and to deflect from criticism.
Nevertheless, on the national level the divide & conquer strategy isn't effective as many Native Americans & progressives denounce the use of indigenous culture as a mascot.
And whilst star QB Patrick Mahomes has avoided the debate despite some Internets misdirection . . . The NFL is quickly changing course and now seems to be embracing player activism.
To wit . . .
THERE'S NO DENYING THE RACIST HISTORY OF THE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS AS LOCAL PROGRESSIVES STILL PUSH FOR A NAME CHANGE BEHIND THE SCENES!!!
The reality is that the Chiefs keeping their name whilst the Redskins and the Indians rebrand is unlikely.
A few activists that we've sent messages to believe that the inevitable Redskins rebrand will increase pressure against Kansas City's football franchise to adopt a more "inclusive" name.
Accordingly . . .
Times are, in fact, changing rapidly and the hard fought Super Bowl glory of the Kansas City Chiefs has already been consigned to history as the new season starts amid the pandemic, divisive election year politics and civil unrest that threatens to fundamentally change not only the character of the nation but the foundation of the team.

You decide . . .
Call them whatever you'd like, just stop giving them millions in taxpayer subsidy. That's the far more important issue Tk.
ReplyDeleteActually, I don't think a name change is going to be that big of a deal. The hardcore conservative fans are going to give up on the NFL this year, those who are left over are so addicted that they will suffer through it.
DeleteThe Kansas City CHOP!
DeleteNamed after that defunct nation of Seattle.
That should make EVERYBODY happy.
+1,000 to OP. The Hunt family will always swindle this cowtown.
DeleteYou got that right. I'm done with the NFL. A bunch of back stabbing nitched. Give into the far left liberals. So long chief's, or chops or what ever.
DeleteKC fans just want to get drunk and bang housewives at the game. Nobody cares what the team does anymore.
ReplyDelete^^^

Comrade; the Democrat Party Marxists have spoken:
ReplyDeleteThe team formerly known as the Kansas City Chiefs will now be known as the "Kansas City Communists".
Onward Comrade ! The Democrat Party has spoken !!!
ReplyDeleteHere we go again. How many times are we going to go through this. I have an idea why don't we just do away with them all together!
Oh and why don't we all go out to CO and desecrate Tall Bull's memorial after all the women Susanna Alderdice he captured and killed along with her children including her unborn baby and raped and tortured her never had a memorial put up. This thing can go both ways.
Do away with them. Who cares. They always want the tax payers to pay for everything. Good ridons.
DeleteI will not be watching NFL this year to be insulted by a Marxist National Anthem.
ReplyDeleteFuck the NFL and Clark Hunt for being pussies and desecrating our true national anthem.
Anything for a buck right Clarkie ?
Like all the Billionares, Hunt, sells his soul for the almighty dollar.
Fuck the Chiefs and their new National Anthem.
Paying $60 for parking and $200 a ticket to fund millionaire football players who hate you is the stupidest thing one can do.
They have politicized and ruined spectator sports in America.
That's the best statement I've heard yet. The Redskins are going to be the Washington pussyfoots. Cleveland will be the Cleveland white asses.
Delete9:21 is right. Quit giving the Kansas City Chiefs $250 million of taxpayer funds that can be invested in Kansas City infrastructure such as streets, lighting, sewer and water services PLUS schools for the poor folks that pay the property taxes.
ReplyDeleteYou know those things we "non-billionaires like Hunt" call "essentials" to live.
Chiefs don't need $250 million in taxpayer funds if they can pay one NFL player $200 million.
Mahomes will probably make 600 million in the next 5 years. Let that shaft breed pay it.
DeleteMeanwhile 9 out of 10 native Americans are not offended by the Washington Redskins name.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.washingtonpost.com/local/new-poll-finds-9-in-10-native-americans-arent-offended-by-redskins-name/2016/05/18/3ea11cfa-161a-11e6-924d-838753295f9a_story.html
The only people offended are the professionally offended extreme left wingers who have nothing better to do with their lives than work themselves into a rage. It gives their lives meaning.
I agree with the other poster. Change their name to the Kansas City Commies. Replace the Arrowhead with a Hammer and Sickle. Replace the singing of the National Anthem with the Internationale and replace the Tomahawk chop with the raised clench fist, the symbol of our revolutionary times.
ReplyDeletechange the Redskins to the "Foreskins"
while they are at it do away with the chop and singing of the athem by saying home of the free instead of home of the chief

ReplyDeleteWhen white male John was in danger of losing his job at the woke corporation, he began self-identifying as a Native American and was named Chief of Operations!!!
The nation is being covered in waves of total insanity.
ReplyDeleteThe media is in control of the wave machine a good portion of the time and depending on whose paying the most is how much they crank it up.
Interesting how such a small minority of the people think they have the right to delegate what the majority have.
If the Billionaire NFL owners are going to play the Black National Anthem and kneel on the American National Anthem; why don't the NFL owners make the opening game free and invite a 100% black attendance to show their sincere support for Black Lives Matter.
ReplyDeleteor is Clark Hunt a hypocrite?
Clark is a spoon fed little cunt who never worked a day in his life.
DeleteGood point 9:50; Chief Executive Officer title should be eliminated as racist and offensive to Native Americans.
ReplyDeleteChief Financial Officers, Chief Information Officer, etc. all need to go.
Chief of Police; have to get rid of that title.
Same with Fire Chief.
Chief Prosecuter Peterhead will have to change her title.
Hankerchief is racist as you blow your nose in the Chiefs face.
Rename the States of Kansas and Missouri as named after Indian tribes.
Rename the Missouri and Kansas Rivers.
Osage Beach must go.
Raytown must go as named after some Redneck named Ray.
The list never ends.
this is all interesting, but there won't be a 2020 season because of corona.
ReplyDeleteby 2021, if there's a vaccine and therefore a football season, some of this may gave blown over.
Possible new names for the Kansas City Chiefs?
ReplyDeleteThe Orlando Chiefs

ReplyDeleteKansas City Champs is it.
ReplyDelete--no people

"Kansas City Spearchuckers" has a nice ring to it.
ReplyDeleteOr, since asshole Patty-cakes is all woke now, call it the "Kansas City Zebras".
^^^^ But doesn't the "Kansas City Chumps" moniker fit the ticket buyers more than the Millionaires on the field?
ReplyDeleteYes, we must erase any mention and image of american indians so the SJWs can't call us racist.
ReplyDeleteThe NFL is dead to me.
ReplyDeletethere won't be a 2021 superbowl, so the chiefs--or whover--get the title for teo years.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of unemployment will the players get when the season is cancelled?
ReplyDeleteOr do they get their salaries anyway?
Washington Blackskins has a contemporary modern ring to it.
ReplyDeleteTHE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON
ReplyDeleteby Rudyard Kipling
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy -- willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.
Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not suddently bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.
Change the name.
ReplyDeleteYou have no good reasons to refuse.
StupidDave, changing the name is not insane.
Refusing to change a divisive name is insane.
People are NOT mascots.
Name them after Byron. The Kansas City Inbred Retards.
DeleteActually, Byron the Asshole welfare cheat, people ARE mascots. I give you the Washburn University Ichabods!
Deletethe redskins should have changed a long time ago, imho.
ReplyDeleteThe Kansas City Champs is almost an evolutionary change.
ReplyDeleteRELAX. There won't be football for a year, so take the time to think through the new names.

How about the KC Corona Clowns in honor of some the fearmongers on this blog?
ReplyDeleteThe Chiefs do not need to rename their team they just need to re-educate the public on the word Chief. it does not specifically refer to Native Americans it is an Old English word derived from the French word chef.
ReplyDeleteArrowheads are present in nearly every major culture. Battle axes are present in nearly every culture . Drop the name tomahawk chop and replace it with battle-axe bash. War and battle drums are the So all they need to do is to open this up to all the cultures as we have Chiefs in every culture. No need to rename
The Chiefs were named after Roe Bartle, our former mayor. We should rename them after our current mayor. The Kansas City Gay Pussies. Sounds about right.
ReplyDelete"People are NOT mascots." Wrong yet again. San Francisco 49ers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, New Orleans Saints, Atlanta Braves, Green Bay Packers, Dallas Cowboys and so on.
ReplyDeleteDo you ever get anything right?
To answer your question: No, Byron the welfare scammer never gets anything right.
DeleteWho didn't see this coming?
ReplyDeleteKansas City Kneelers
ReplyDeleteAugust 15th Chiefs game?
ReplyDeleteMasks required for tailgating as well as game?
And, what about the players and masks and distancing. Tyreek can distance but what about others?
the royals were supposed to start july 23 or 24.
ReplyDeletebut, corona was supposed to abate in the summer. instead, it's increasing rapidly.
Just when you think the NFL can't be any more cowardly and will do ANYTHING for a buck, along comes the "Black National Anthem" before every game.
ReplyDeleteReally?
Some folks actually thought that MLK and the gang were working toward integration, not institutionalized segregation.
And how about the Mexican national anthem?
Or any one of the dozens of identifiable groups in the US?
We'll all look back at all this silliness, cowardice, being jerked around by a bunch of kids and extremists, and wonder how people could be so stupid and craven to be rolled by this nonsense.
What di you do in the "revolution" daddy?
Bell bottom pants and flowers in your hair.
Is Henry Marshall still dating Kelly Ferguson? She was a Chiefette.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't matter, all of the jock sniffers will still fill up the stadium
ReplyDeleteHonestly, it doesn't matter the basis of the name, or the proud traditions of its history. The name will eventually change. Some people think "Chiefs" is racist and taboo. OK. Let's change it. We shouldn't use the name of a person, or group of people, no matter how proud, out of fear that the name may cause future accusations of "racism".
ReplyDeleteHow about the Kansas City Tornadoes? The KC Champs? The KC Fountains? The KC Pros?
KC Killers sound legit.
DeleteOK Boomers are philosophical about all this.
ReplyDeleteThe 1968 hippies were are working on Wall Street a few years later.
1226, Champs is a great combination of pronunciation, anodin content, and positive connotation.
ReplyDeleteNo need to pay a million for a branding study, Chiefs.
Get Champs for free off TKC.
is the indian statue by winstead's still ok?

Kansas City F-150s. Or Kansas City Trucks.

ReplyDeleteKansas City Drovers

ReplyDeleteIf not for sports team names the memory of the American Indains will just fade away.
ReplyDeleteSee if you still kneel down to Mcholmpernik in the end. LOL Traitor in the wood pile. Weird
ReplyDeleteWhat’s funny is the Indians have European bloodlines so they weren’t native to North America in the first place. Did these so called euro Indians steal the land from somebody else. Probably, so nobody has exclusive rights to anything. Imagine that, there’s goes another despicable dimwit lie right down the ole toilet. Jesus Christ man, how stupid are the dimwits? And how much stupid can they get?
ReplyDelete^^^ another fact that eluded bLIEron as usual. The communist news network has bLIEron so stupidly brainwashed that he has no idea what planet he’s on!
ReplyDeleteIndians were not native, they were the first known slave owners however. They also were into mass killing of innocent members of their own tribes and other tribes. So keep spouting the poor innocent Indian shit. Weird
ReplyDeleteWhoever is proposing Kansas City "Champs" or Kansas City "Fountains" is gay as fuck.
ReplyDeleteKansas City "Commies" or Kansas City "Fuck You White Boys" is more appropriate.
As another poster suggested the hammer and sickle on the 50 yard line to replace the arrowhead.
Anybody that goes to a Chiefs or NFL game this year is a jock-sniffing, cucked, pussy. Grow some.
What's the matter, 2:37? Your family not love you enough?
DeleteRename Byron......That Fucking Retard
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteEarlier comment said "that hardcore conservatives" will give up on the NFL this year. I agree somewhat, I'm a moderate and I've already decided not to go to the Chiefs games or watch the NFL.
I gave it up when Kaperdick pulled his crap and only started watching the last 2 years (glad I did) but enough of this crap is enough.
Clark Hunt better think long and hard or he'll lose not only more fans, but revenue
proposal for new name for eskimo pies, so as to not offend: snowman pies with a matching illustration.
ReplyDeleteas for uncle ben's rice: old-time rice, with a neutral historical illustration, not of people.
as for aunt jemima's syrup: home-style syrup, with an inanimate illustration.
it's about time these were brought up to date.
145, true, therein lies the weakness of changing names intended to honor native american heritage.
ReplyDeletefor example, many street names in ksnsas city were intended as honorific and in no way pejorative.
the schedule will likely be scrambled, if any games at all are played.
ReplyDeleteunless, of course, football is going to be part of a grand scheme of inducing herd immunity without a vaccine.
True, 3:16. It would make no sense for the Chiefs to have to change their generic quasi-Indian name and yet leave intact all the states, cities, towns etc. that have the names of specific Indians. And there are hundreds of them. Pontiac MI. Illinois. Kansas. Wichita. And so on. They all will have to rename themselves, assuming that is that the outrage mob is not just selectively outraged.
ReplyDeleteKansas City Cheaps !
ReplyDeleteEveryone is falling down by thinking changing the Chiefs name excises the Indian terminology.
ReplyDeleteKansas is also derived from the Kansa Indian tribe.
So, after Kansas City changes its name to River City, our football team might become the River City Champs.
Kansas City Killa city Murderers, dat da ticket bitches. Weird
ReplyDeleteIn the voice of Slim Pickens in the movie Blazing Saddles
ReplyDeleteThe Kansas City Faggots
Both Kansas Cities are named after Indians so guess we best be renaming both of them so as to not piss the Indians off.
ReplyDeleteWho cares ?
ReplyDeleteHere's how I look at this whole renaming things. Most of the things in question have been called what ever longer than most of those protesting are old or even their parents for that matter and all of a sudden the past few years it's become an issue after half a century or a whole century maybe more it wasn't.
ReplyDeleteYou know what, if what things are called bother you this bad may I suggest you move to another country where things are named more to your liking and live there. I'm more than betting such a place does not exist. I think this is all the new cool fad thing to do just to see who all can be pissed off by demanding such childish things.
You protesters run around screaming your Americans while you are trying to destroy what is America and has been America for 244 years today.
Super Dave 7/4/20, 4:38 PM

Nobody cares, Stupor Duck.

DeleteBLM offends me by being centered on blacks. All Lives Matter or nothing.
ReplyDeleteThe sanctimonious local newspaper should become The River City Star.
ReplyDelete.....too late for them to execute a name change
ReplyDeleteAll protesters- regardless of faith, color, sex or lack of- should be given a one time opportunity.
ReplyDeleteThey get to sell all of their stuff- Soros adds 10%- and a one way ticket to any country they deem acceptable to their tastes that agrees to take them.
I am sure many of us would set up a Go Fund Me- and they promise to never ever never come back.
Good luck finding a better country. Even our Mexican friends think they are all mostly sickos.
So many gave their lives- Blacks, Whites, Mexicans etc for them and they spit on it.
And the world laughs at them.
5:02 and Super Dave are dead on the money!
ReplyDeleteRiver City would be a good name. But which river? The Missouri is derived from an Indian word, which the evil whites culturally appropriated, so it has to go. Maybe call all rivers just River. Well folks we got trouble, right here in River City.
ReplyDeleteLets call them Hank Stram's Champions. Or the Len Dawson Hero's. Of the Cowntown Champs.
ReplyDeleteFunny thing is nobody mentioned changing the chiefs name, it’s only been the Indians and redskins they were talking about.
ReplyDeleteIs the cowboys offensive? I mean other than Jerry Jones of course.
The whiny crybabies are out of their minds again. The Cleveland Indians should now be correctly associated with people from the country of India. Ask them if they give a crap about that? Everyone knows that the former American Indian is now the Native American. Didn't African tribes have chiefs as their leaders? Let's say the KC Chiefs are named after African tribe leaders.
ReplyDeleteMake everyone happy, Call them the Kansas city Queers.
ReplyDeleteThe Kansas City Savages.
ReplyDeleteSTFU 6:50, we damn sure don't care to hear your pie hole yapping.
ReplyDelete6:50 you abhorrent despicable disgusting heinous repulsive spiteful vicious vile moral decrepit belly crawler you'll be in hell long before you'll ever see the likes of me if even then. Try not to copulate with Satan too much as I'd have to think he'd give you a searing case of anal burn.

ReplyDeleteOOH THIS IS A GOOD ONE:
ReplyDeleteAsk Sharice Davids what SHE thinks?
If she favors changing the name of the Chiefs, that will cost her so many votes she will love re-election as our Joco/Dotte Congresswoman!!!!
Actually they were named after a train called the Kansas City Chief that ran on the Santa Fe line starting in 1950 - ten years before the football team started in Dallas.
ReplyDeleteWell if native Americans are not satisfied with team using their image maybe they would like it better if they were named after the people who killed them by calling the team, the cavalry. To really screw with those peoples minds call them the Buffalo soldiers which were blacks in US Army regiments in West who killed native Americans. That would set off a conflict between native Americans and blacks, lol.
ReplyDeleteThey could also keep the name and ditch the indian imagery and instead choose Navy Chief Petty Officer imagery They are commonly called chiefs.
ReplyDeleteAckshually when the team was started in Texas they were known as the Dallas Texans. They only changed their name after relocating in honor of H. Roe Bartle.
ReplyDelete
