What the F#@% is an Aquasock?


In the 2006 offseason, the Spokane Indians baseball team began a process to redesign their logo and uniforms. As per tradition, they began by avoiding the use of any American Indian imagery, but early in the process of redesign, the Spokane Nation contacted the team about officially supporting the team. In the process, the tribe gave permission to the team to adopt subtle and tasteful imagery, in order to pay homage to the team’s history and new connection with the tribe. The cooperation, called “historic” by the team, included the creation of a secondary logo written in Salish, the traditional language of the tribe. [Source: Wikipedia]

    I'm sorry, I am unworthy. So, The Indians got the royal imprimatur from the local casino owners to keep their old name instead of changing it to The Inlanders.

    That really puts me in my place.

    I stand korrekted.

    The Inlanders would be a cool name, I'll grant you that.

    You'll grant me nothing and I'll see you in heck first.
