Hey guys I agree with you, I am playing devil's advocate here, all I am saying is that I can see some taking offence to the name. We all know how eager some people are to jump on this type of thing and cause trouble, Totems if not done absolutely right could be looked upon by some as making fun of a heritage, these people are the ones who would get the media attention and imo is reason enough for the league to not want to wade into those waters. Also how can you create a mascot that would be used that wouldn't poke fun at the name in some way, shape or form? Again, just playing devil's advocate.
