Baseball Teams and all other sports names must be

Baseball Teams and all other sports names must be changed.

The Atlanta Braves should change their name and so should the Indians. As someone who might have Native American blood I find these names of recognition to be deplorable. The Yankees should also change their name. My great, great, great, step uncle's friend was almost wounded by a Yankee in the civil war. The Yankee also said something rude to him but I don’t know what it was.

Being someone who is also not really tall, I find the name Giants to be derogatory. Who gives them the right to claim to be so big? I am a very religious person and no one should call themselves Angels. I find this especially disturbing when these men play on Sunday.

My affiliation with the animal rights groups has brought up the point that the many names used by these teams does nothing to help those animals. A Devil Ray is really a Manta Ray but naming it a devil gives it a bad impression. The devil is another name for Satan and any team directly linking itself to Satan should be stopped.

There is already a team called then A’s. Why not name all the teams in alphabetical order. No one, except the Alphabet Freedom Association, and no one cares about them, would mind. There would be the LA B’s, the Cincinnati C’s, the San Francisco D’s the Milwaukee E’s, the New York F’s. There is also a Jay team.
I feel with this method all the animals would certainly be happier along with red and white socks.
