I was shocked, but I... like it!

I've always had a soft spot for the team for some unknown reason, but ever since I realized who real indians were (long before social justice became a thing), I figured it'd go one day. Back then I would have thought they would have kept the native theme at least, but now, no, it had to go too. I'm a bit surprised they went with something so in right now with the Guardians of the Galaxy being what they are now and with every league that pops up nowadays seems to have a team called the Guardians, but it works. I wonder what the other finalists were. I'm glad they're keeping their colour scheme.

EDIT: I didn't really like the Spiders name for a long time, but I know it was a favourite and it had been growing on me.
