We need a stud name for our world champion football team, what do you guys like?
I think I prefer it to be one syllable like the last one, maybe Kansas City Studs

Monarchs, if the NLBM is cool with it

I like this. We also need to incorporate a one of those fire house poles into our touchdown celebration and have a fireman slide down it every time we score.

Think of the halftime shows with Dalmatians doing tricks :love: :love:. They could also have cheerleaders walk the Dalmatians around the stadium during games and people could pet them.
What would their names be? Hunt? Bartle? Marty?

IMO The Chiefs need to at least dump the Chop. It's copied and it's dumb.
At least FSU has the full blessing (from what I understand) of the Seminole Nation.

There is absolutely a difference between with what FSU does with Seminole Nation and this. FSU works with Seminole Nation to make sure that the things they do at their sporting events are consistent with Seminole traditions. Those blue basketball FSU wears, that's from the Seminole Nation partnership. Yes, this chiefs have partnered with some native tribes, however the chop is in no way part of the partnerships. This is the same for FSU, it hasn't been endorsed by Seminole Nation.
There have been other native groups that have asked Mark Donovan and Clark Hunt to end the chop.

That's fair. I don't care about the chop. That's fine, we can end it. Just responding to Dax a derp's obsession of shitting on all things Midwest, while raising up whatever dumpster territory he's living in these days. You think he cared about Florida State's traditions before he got shipped out to MAGA land?

How in the eff do you manage to conjure up the bullshit in your mind that you do? It's absolutely fascinating and amazing.
Also, anyone who doesn't think that the majority of Kansas and Missouri isn't "MAGA Land" clearly doesn't have the first rough ridin' clue about anything.

Alright guys, here me out on this.
What if we renamed the "Tomahawk Chop" to "Nightstick Beating" and claimed that Chief is in reference to the chief of police. Should buy us a couple of years right?

YES, lets keep this brainstorm session going and save our beloved Chiefs.
Obviously we need some german shepards as mascots (Patrick and Mahomes). Can you imagine the excitement when a streaker or fan runs on the field and Patrick/Mahomes are released to subdue them?

The horse the cheerleader rides (Warpaint?) will need to be replaced with a standard police horse obviously. I can't think of a good cop horse name, maybe "Buster"?

"Mahomes drops back to the 15, looks left and pumpfakes, now he's running to the right. HE HAS SPACE TO WORK WITH, AT THE 5 AND HE CROSSES THE THIN BLUE LINE! TOUCHDOWN KANSAS CITY, TOUCHDOWN PATRICK MAHOMES!"
"The raucous crowd is on their feet here at Arrowhead Stadium as the smoke grenades are released and begin wafting through the stadium! What a sight!"
-
I bet Mitch would also come up with all sorts of kooky nicknames like calling the Oline a "Riot Shield" etc.
-

Actually lets just get rid of the horse and replace it with a souped up cop car that makes a lap every time we score and rev's its engine really loud. They could also do skits before the game/halftime where we arrest the opposing teams mascot and rough them up before throwing them in the back of the cop car.

I was thinking more along these lines but that truck would be great to drive around the parking lot and get fans riled up before the game starts.

Thats good. Maybe the section is surrounded by chain link fence and there is only 1 gate to get in/out and Danny Clinksdale is the guard that opens it.?

the monarchs would be good.
mascot is a butterfly. fans wave the milkweed to celebrate victories.
-
I too will support the Monarchs mascot for KC. Both the insect reference, and the government reference (preferably constitutional, which is what we would be if we had the sense not to revolt).
-
I've got some thoughts/questions on the Monarch name.
1. Are we going with a Butterfly or King as the mascot? (I vote king and our mascot is some old timey 1700's king sitting on a chair with a huge hat and some sort of walking stick encrusted in jewels...Maybe the butterfly could be our secondary mascot?)
Like this but a bigger hat
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/proxy/F4S_lza5D74SoQS58rXcmrTufSQe4SQZZc_Cul9fLOrKEY_hO6Fz_CbOcsgqO21fX_O6OlA1Jj3d4grv4KsrjiztlrtOpRA1jqfbl_51Ig)
2. Could we combine Chiefs and Monarchs and be the Chief Monarch? Like the Chief of all the different Monarchs? (Maybe incorporate different kings/leaders from around the world and various time periods. This could allow us a backdoor to keep some native american imagery )
3. What kind of logo would we have on our helmet? (I vote jewel encrusted hat and or walking stick)

I still think keeping the CHIEF'S name and just referencing the Police is a better option.

About time. They should stop playing the chop song. Fans will still do it but at least they can absolve themselves of the blame. Also should get rid of Warpaint. The drum thing seems cringey too but I guess the NFL has approved that?

If the Chiefs didn’t go out of their way to invite the Natives to educate themselves about the culture, or getting bombarded by them for the name, I’d be right there with you. That’s not the case. Chiefs is 10000x more harmless name than the Redskins. Take away the chop, fine, I don’t care. But nobody is protesting the Chiefs name other than some PC BS snowflakes, who don’t even like the sport or just sheep following social trends.

More Karen libs are offended by it than Native Americans. Cancel culture at its best. I bet if we didn’t win the Super Bowl and weren’t in the news this much with the greatest player on earth, it would still be a non issue for the Kansas City Chiefs.

The headdresses and "Tomahawk Chop" have been controversial for decades. Nobody is suggesting renaming the Chiefs. We can have that discussion when it is actually raised.

You’re posting in a thread that says “Let’s rename the Chiefs”. These are just a few starting points to get there. Again, if I hear Native Americans speaking out and offended by this, I’m totally on board. I just feel this is reactionary to today’s society, to keep randos happy. If anything, I blame Trump!
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I took the title of the thread to be made in jest. Cat27 doesn't strike me as one to be on the "woke" side of things. Native Americans have absolutely raised issue with fans wearing headdresses. To put it in perspective, it would be similar to a Patriots fan wearing a fake Medal of Honor or Purple Heart at a game in Foxborough (not my original comparo but one I saw and agree with). I agree with you that the name "Chiefs" should not be an issue until Native Americans raise it as an issue (which I have not seen).
-
Happy to hear. I just feel like this is the starting point for a name change, which just sucks for me as a fan.

Also, cat27 was definitely projecting this thread, in a way to say “They’ll be cancelled next” as a huge Trump supporter that he is. His projectors are square on right now. Somehow the Indians mascot still exists.

why do you care so much what the team who plays in the city close to where you live decide to call themselves?

they absolutely don’t care what you named your dog or if you change it’s name because they know it’s still the same dog
-
It’s just a branding thing for me. I grew up with them. It’s Arrowhead, chiefs and chopper, and everything I know growing up with. They probably don’t care about the name of my dog because he’s 2 years old and hasn’t represented the city for decades.

Agreed but the rest of that seems pretty good or at least better late than never.
The chop thing is dumb, let FSU and FSU alone have it (as long as their local tribes are cool with it, which I believe they are)
-
I still find it hilarious that the chop bothers ppl because Florida State came up with it first. Like, I get the chant would bother ppl in 2020, but some ppl on this blog act like it’s only ok if you came up with it first, even tho it started in 69/70 with the Chiefs. They have 50 years of doing it and reaching out to the culture of the name. I bet the wave is next.

They have 50 years of doing it and reaching out to the culture of the name. I bet the wave is next.

Oh if it was something like "I BELIEVE THAT WE WILL WIN" I wouldn't give a crap. FSU has permission from the Seminole tribe and the chiefs should have dropped it like immediately after this:

People would have forgotten in like a week and it wouldn't have cost them a dime. traditions come and go, it's fine

Do they still play the Gary Glitter song at Chiefs games?
-
I think the nfl banned it a few years ago (#canceled)
Also I really love the chop and while I'd accept it going away, I'd still miss it. Like Willie's pregame skits.

It’s just the heat of the moment as a fan thing. Like, the AFC Championship game this year, down by 10, comeback happens and then Mahomes makes a once and a lifetime run to take the lead before half. Stadium goes nuts!!! The chop chant begins, goosebumps insue, ppl hug, high fives go around after 50 years of frustration and tears poor down. It’s just ingrained. It was beautiful. I’m turning 36 in two weeks. I hate change.

I'm with wacky on this one, 100% pro team chop and every time I hear 80,000 of my best buds do it in unison I get goosebumps.
My favorite chop time is when we make a big stop on third down and their punt team comes onto the field and the chop just starts building.....AND BUILDING, GETTING STRONG WITH EACH REPEAT.
Then when the ball is finally kicked there is a loud OHHH sound as the chant ends and then the whole stadium is silent on the edge of their seat as the ball sails through the air to our awesome punt return specialist (Tyreek/Dante Hall/Vanover/ etc).
You can take that away from me over my dead body.

The only tradition I care about is "and the home of the CCCHHHIIIIEEEFFFFFFSSSS!

Another favorite chop time -
When you are walking up the big circle ramp to your 300 level peasant seats about 15 minutes before a big game. The ramp is packed with people and then one guy who just pulled a 5th of jim beam out of his carharts will start the chop and next thing you know everyone else on the ramp and concourse is doing the chop, just getting JACKED UP with excitement to go yell their faces off at the opposing team. :excited: :excited: :excited:

LOVE this one as well and hope it never stops.

The Chiefs name just sucks in general, whether Native Americans are offended or not. Every suggestion that has been made would be better. Kansas State should also pick a better name than wildcats.

The Seminole tribe hasn't endorsed the use of the chop but they haven't condemned it either. Even if they did endorse the use of the chop they still shouldn't do it, as it's a cartoonish depiction. There were native americans who didn't have a problem with the Washington Redskins but that didn't make the name less problematic.
Also anyone who considers these proposed changes as cancelling are brain damaged doofuses. I'm so glad that the phrases cancelling and cancel culture are being so watered down. An entity choosing to change their bands, slogans, logos, traditions isn't cancelling, they have a choice.

MIR, if the chefs cancel the tomahawk chop I will blame you personally and make it my personal mission to stand in front/block your view of any magic show you wish to watch. :shakesfist:

If they would just pick a better name they could bring the chop back and call it something else.

We already fixed this, rename to chiefs to the police chiefs and the tomahawk chop to "Dealing with protesters with a baton stick"

Ben ji, I'm starting to think no one reads this thread except us

you can do a chop if it's the fire chiefs. they use axes. plus the dogs and horses, so.

Yeah and eliminate the noise meant to simulate an Indian yelling

Unless you can work out a deal with some tribes to ok it for political purposes. Seems like a poor Hill to die on.

Bison/Buffaloes such a badass mascot

Yeah I love it

it's also a consolation prize for the people who didn't want to change the mascot. like at least the bison is another thing that was made nearly extinct by white folk :dunno:

Yes, terrific post.

I would IRL be in favor of naming them the monarchs.
PREDICTION: ONE YEAR FROM TODAY THE CHIEFS WILL NOT BE NAMED THE CHIEFS
welp

They are going to keep being the Chiefs until more agents of change keep showing up to road games in full head dress.

Didn’t they figure out that kid was a Native American wearing his tribes traditional face paint?

That definitely is an unsubstantiated twitter rumor, the second part, his tribes traditional face paint, is the most pathetically hilarious thing I've read today. I would have said this week but those KU fans saying that Carter Stanley, Todd Reesing, and Jalon Daniels are better than any quarterback that K-State has had takes that honor.

Mods, go ahead and lock this thread.
“And then the Chiefs. There are many ways that you could interpret the name ‘chief.’ It’s not the name that bothers me. It’s hearing that damn Tomahawk chop.””

The Chop/Drum/Chant is awful and should stop.

You can't name your team the Chiefs and then get upset when your fans want to act like Indians. If the Chiefs don't like it, they should change their name.

I've always thought it was strange that in this day and age we still use the word "Indians" as we now know it was used just because homeboy thought he was in India. Granted, Cleveland Native Americans doesn't have the same ring to it.

Somehow associating the tomahawk chop with Indians is less racist to me than associating it with native Americans.
