Obviously talking about the team with the name "Vikings." Why would anyone name their team after a gang of murdering, thieving thugs who raped and pillaged innocent villages throughout northern Europe. The Vikings most likely also killed every Native American village they encountered when they visited North America. It makes no sense to honor and name a team after the Vikings and turn around and bitch and complain about the complimentary act of naming a team after Indians.

The point, for those who may struggle with logic, is that nobody names something as an insult. Naming a baseball team "Indians" is a great honor to Indians. It's showing them utmost respect to name something after them. For every person complaining about the name Indians, they better be equally complaining about the name Vikings and the crowd chant celebrating drinking out of a murdered opponent's skull (skol). You want offensive? That is offensive.

People name their son "Charles" after a grandfather as an honor. People name a bridge "Veterans Memorial Bridge" as an honor. People name a road "Walter Mondale Drive" as an honor. People name a Metrodome "Hubert H. Humphrey" as an honor. People name a school "Martin Luther King" as an honor. People name a NFL team "Vikings" as an honor. People name a MLB team "Indians" as an honor.
