I didn't really think about it too much until I went to an Atlanta Braves game with my brother in-law who is half Native American. Being surrounded by thousands of white people doing a tomahawk chant was surreal.

Kansas City Chiefs are my favorite team because of their association with Native Americans specifically, Chiefs who are highly regarded in Native Culture.
I do not find their logo offensive, however Native Americans do as the White Man is essentially stealing from their culture and commercializing it and a misrepresentation of the role of a "Chief" in Native culture.

Washington Red Skins is a lot more offensive in my opinion, since Red Skins was a slang term to call Native people by white foreigners. So the "Chiefs" is sorta the lesser of two evils.
If the team does eventually change their logo, I hope it somehow still references the Native American Chiefs native to the Kansas surrounding area.
Americans should never forget who lived here before we all came. We need to recognize that they were the first founders of this land.

Logo no, name maybe North America has some awesome evidences from human pre-history in the form of arrow and spear heads definitely worth embracing -- as for tying in to Native American tribal designations, not so much
