The Atlanta Braves could simply go back to using the franchise's original name, the Beaneaters.

And instead of the tomahawk chop and chant, the fans could all just fart in appreciation of their beloved Beaneaters. A fitting tribute to this name-change trend.

I find it endlessly ironic that people will get so bent out of shape about two teams changing their names who aren't even going by the original names of the franchises anymore. Because the original names WERE CHANGED.
