Probably because they know they're going to be loaded if they do and it'll really help charity.

Cleveland fans will still be able to get Indians merch after the Guardians rebrand goes live ... with proceeds going to charity.

Chief Wahoo was one of the best mascots any team ever had regardless of what people think or say. I never heard Native Americans complaining about it.

It's a caricature, same as Chief Wahoo.

Why is one offensive and the other not?

I hope all of these "woke" professional and college sports teams go broke. They are more concerned with PC than they are about improving their skills or their sports. I quit watching three years ago and haven't missed it a bit.
