Chief Wahoo — the cartoonish logo of the Cleveland Indians — is arguably the most racist logo in sports, with its “ridiculous, buck-toothed profoundly offensive caricature of a single-feathered native.” With the departure of Lebron James from the Cavaliers — a potential death blow to the already hapless Cleveland sports scene — the town could use a change of luck. Ditching the logo — and changing the team’s name — might just appeal to the gods. Story by Harvey Wasserman.
