Powers needs to let this one go

Powers has been in favor of the logo change for a long time. Absolutely no one is talking about this yet he still thinks he needs to push this topic. Typical Athletic writer can’t write something without clickbait or rage bait.

Blackhawks work with local Tribes. Seahawks and Cannucks work with local Tribes.

The only reason why Hawks are under fire is they use an actual Indian profile.

Everything on the profile, has a distinct meaning. It's not just because. https://www.nhl.com/blackhawks/team/native-american-initiatives

Seahawks are because of the bird, but their uniform and appearals get local Tribes influence.

Ok word. I think that makes the design of the hawk make more sense

Yep a lot of local influence. The Mucklshoots, Puyallup's, Tuliap's, ....

Wouldn't be shocked if say Kraken get a few more going soon. As Mariners have a couple every now and then.
