If they didn't want their shit being put on hockey jeresys maybe they should have fought harder way back when.

Probably would've helped them if 95% of them didn't die right before we showed up.


No excuse.

Native Americans are a good example of what happens when you let immigrants in here willy nilly. They should have built a magnificent wall.

Oh, I loved that Chief Illiniwek logo. I just hated the Buckskin Fratboy. They should have at least kept the logo. What do they have now, just a letter I that's supposed to resemble an arch on campus? Dumb.

Who exactly is offended by the Indian head? Its not like there are protesters out front the UC like at Redskins games.

I think it's preventing Stink from enjoying the games or something

Stink's logo is a triple threat. It's offensive to Indians, the mentally unstable, and fans of Uncle Remus.

Plus Julie Dicaro has supported the Indians ever since she claimed that General Custer raped her.

I think they mentioned they've been thinking about changing the name. I suggest "RAPE." No acronym, nothing cute, just RAPE in big block letters.

But I will say that if you're offended by the use of a people as mascots or as a representation for logos, the Hawks Indian head really shouldn't be some untouchable exception.


I agree.

Selfishly I hope the Blackhawks logo stays put, but can't help but think some day it will be put to rest.

Chief Wahoo is all but gone and the Braves are phasing out the tomahawk. They'll come for us next.

They can can take my Chief Feathered Head dress, Indian Head Sweater and Tomahawk when they pry it off my cold dead body...

Probably about this time tomorrow while I lay lifeless in my half shoveled driveway.

Washington Redskins will be dealt with before the Blackhawks.

There was a small group of Native Americans outside the UC on opening night. They were mostly ignored. Same guy http://thisshouldbetheblackhawkslogo.com/

That logo that he is presenting as acceptable, happens to be a bird wearing a Native American headdress...Shouldn't he be against the damn headdress part of the logo first?

Thanks for the links, I wasn't aware of that "group". I agree with you, I read the articles and the writer is complaining about all sorts of native american stereotypes being present in Chicago on statues. Some of the things described would make the writer appear to be a huge hypocrite for endorsing a bird wearing a stereotypical headdress.

I think the best approach would be for the team and fans to discourage headdresses, face paint, and all that. Credit where it's due, I haven't seen a great deal of that in the stands, but just make sure that it's not a part of the fandom at all. Being a Hawks fan isn't about pretending to be an Indian, it's about sitting on your hands in disappointed silence because you paid out the ass for your tickets and the team is down 1-0.
