I remember seeing it as a kid and thinking that seems like it would be a fun team to root for. A big cartoon smiling face just projecting happiness and confidence. Thankfully I decided to stick with Royals so I could enjoy championship baseball.

The correct answer is that it would be ****ing stupid to be upset about it, just like this shit is with the Cleveland team.

Who is the actual person Chief Wahoo is based on? ROFL
