We MUST do better. Here is why every NFL team name is very problematic:
Arizona Cardinals - Too religious.
Atlanta Falcons - Celebrates one of the cheapest Smash Bros. characters, who is a smug little punk only jerks choose.
Baltimore Ravens - Named after the Disney Channel show That's So Ravenwithout the POC protagonist's permission.
Buffalo Bills - Bills are an evil byproduct of capitalism.
Carolina Panthers - The panther was appropriated wholesale from Wakandan culture.
Chicago Bears - Murderous bears should never be celebrated.
Cincinnati Bengals - It just sounds racist. We're looking into it.
Cleveland Browns - Brown what? Are you talking about skin color again? Sounds like white fragility.
Dallas Cowboys - A mutant half boy, half cow is tragic and shouldn’t be used as a mascot.
Denver Broncos - Horses have been subjugated and enslaved for millennia.
Detroit Lions - Lions are not vegans.
Green Bay Packers - Glorifies butcherous meat packers. Meat causes global warming. Gross.
Houston Texans - Celebrates the most racist state in the Union.
Indianapolis Colts - This name glorifies guns.
Jacksonville Jaguars - Jaguars are driven by evil rich billionaires as they run over poor people.
Kansas City Chiefs - We suggest switching to Kansas City Wise Indigenous Tribal Elders.
Las Vegas Raiders - Celebrates The Raiders of the Lost Ark, which featured prominent Nazi imagery.
Los Angeles Chargers - We don't think anyone who has faced down a line of charging riot police would find this name the least bit funny.
Los Angeles Rams - Dodge Rams contribute heavily to the climate crisis.
Miami Dolphins - Painful reminder that Sea World still exists.
Minnesota Vikings - Associated with patriarchy-dominated Norse mythology.
New England Patriots - REEEEEEEEEEEE
New Orleans Saints - Goes against the constitutional principle of separation of church and sports.
New York Giants - They prefer the term "persons of height."
New York Jets - The burning of jet fuel contributes to global warming.
Philadelphia Eagles - Eagles are a well-known Nazi symbol.
Pittsburgh Steelers - Steel contributes to global warming.
San Francisco 49ers- The gold miner mascot hearkens back to manifest destiny and the destruction of Mother Earth
Seattle Seahawks - Birds are unable to give consent to have their name used as mascots.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers - This one's actually OK because they were probably just stealing bread to feed their families.
Tennessee Titans - Reinforces the harmful idea of power structures and male-dominated hierarchies.
Washington Redskins - Nothing wrong with this one as far as we can tell.
