I think The Cleveland Engines is very "Cleveland" and holds to tradition. I've only owned the Windsor, but I think Cleveland should show pride in their motor. It is also very American...if that's still a good thing. "Course looking ahead, maybe naming the team after an internal combustion engine may not be politically prudent.

I'll admit, I'm a St. Louis Cardinal fan. I have no ill will, or dislike whatsoever with the Cleveland baseball team. Probably because the Indians are in the American League. I'm a little surprised at how some of the posters here are taking this name change in stride. If the Cardinals were forced into this, or willfully did it, it would rip a piece out of my heart. That said, I think I've found a way to accomplish this and still hang on to the team's tradition. You can't really name the team after a group of people, or anything you might anticipate a future group of people might identify as. It has to be an inanimate object, or an inanimate object that doesn't indirectly lead to an association with a minority group, or any group that was oppressed or has any way adopted victim hood, or could easily be used by white liberals who see an opportunity to turn such group into victims for political gain and power.
