Maybe NBC wants fans to look and act like these folks at this 1950s Boston/Montreal tilt (with Rocket Richard for Habs and Bill Quackenbush on defence and Sugar Jim Henry in nets for the Bruins).

NBC is absurd.
Nothing
But
Clowns.....................
Would it be racist if a 49ers fan dressed up as Mr. Hankey, The Sidewalk Poo?
yikes... that guy is in black face wearing a native american headdress... i bet he is wearing ladies underwear too...

No, that would make him a Warren-loving 49er "fan". Only thing missing is the glass of Chardonnay.
NBC is absurd. They have no intellectual credibility at all on anything anymore. They are challenging CNN for the title of Biggest Fake News Clown Show.
“Would it be racist if a 49ers fan dressed up as Mr. Hankey, The Sidewalk Poo?”
I see what you did there. It’s actually funny. Southpark should have an episode of Mr Hankey running for Mayor of SF.
NBC has more racists in their ranks by percentage than all of Kansas City. A liberal will judge on race, sex, orientation, religious beliefs and social class before they even engage in a subject of one of their stories or investigations. They have to. Their entire business model and ideological existences depends and is focused on it. They must foment outrage in order to get people to watch and drive their ratings. Divisive messaging IS ESSENTIAL in their “news”.
Is it really cultural “appropriation” or RESPECT for some aspects of some “native Americans” and particularly fierce bravery on the battlefield. The latter is clearly why some sports teams adopt(ed) various “native American” titles in their names, and NOT out of any disrespect.
Those titles have entered the COMMON AMERICAN culture and now belong to the COMMON AMERICAN culture. That occurs in EVERY culture and it occurs NOT out of disrespectful “appropriation” but the mingling of sources over time.
Now that I think of it. I am glad KC won the Super Bowl, so that all the left wing nuts’ heads can explode because of all the native american nonsense that everyone is tried of hearing about
I just wish their fans wouldn’t do that disgusting FSU chant.
There is an English Premiership Rugby Team called the Exeter Chiefs. Their logo is an Indian in a war bonnet and the fans regularly do the tomahawk chop, do the war song, and many dress up as Indians. They are all racists too.
Of course the 49ers are named after the men who came to California during the gold rush disrupting the peaceful Indian natives and Spanish (not Mexican) settlers. Long Beach State calls its teams 49ers as well, but I believe they’ve ditched their mascot as divisive.
That mayor would get my vote. I would certainly buy a shirt.
Our most dangerous helicopter is called ‘Apache’!
Our Paratroopers yell Geronimo when they jump!
The reason Army helicopters are named after native tribes will make you smile :
Right on cue. Anything good, anything wholesome, anything American, and the left will seek to besmirch, sully, and destroy it. That is all they know.
There were many Caucasian Indians raised by Indians. NBC rabble rousers need to study history.
Both teams had too many white guys...so neither deserved to win! < /sarc >
