I agree with the name Braves and Blackhawks not sounding quite as bad but as much as I've always liked Chicago's jerseys I can see why there is a problem with it. It is essentially using a first nations person as a mascot, which isn't cool.
I did see a while ago a mock logo that eliminates the problem which I thought was pretty cool and doesn't take away from overall look of the jersey here is the link to it.
