What if you were in 1st place. Lets say you're running a race where you run to the end of a road or something, then turn back around at the end of the road and go back to the start/finish line. If you're far enough ahead and in 1st place, you would actually pass the guy in 2nd place, just running in a different direction. Of course, you'd pass all the other places too in reverse order...
Just wanted to put a different spin on this thing.
I say, FIRST PLACE!!!

The Major League baseball team Cleveland Indians, adopted the name 'Indians' in 1915, for what reason?

After the 1899 debacle of 20 wins and 134 losses, in which the once-proud Spiders were redubbed the "Wanderers" and the "Exiles" due to being relegated to a road franchise, the NL contracted the Cleveland club out of existence. A new team formed the very next year in the young American League. The uniforms featured dark blue, and the team was labeled the "Blues" by the media, among other short-lived nicknames.
Once the club began to be led by player and sometimes-manager Nap Lajoie, the team quickly became known as the Cleveland Naps. During the tenure of manager Deacon McGuire, the team was also sometimes facetiously called the "Molly Maguires". (BBG)
The team was strong in the early 1900s, but lapsed in the 1910s and "Naps" began to be taken as a joke equated to "sleeping". When Lajoie was traded to the Philadelphia Athletics at the end of the 1914 season, owner Charles Somers asked the local newspapers to come up with a new name for the team. The fact that he would go to the papers is a reflection of where most of the team nicknames of that era came from.
Legend has it that the team honored Louis Sockalexis when it assumed its current name in 1915. On the contrary, the media and the team chose Cleveland Indians as a play on the name of the Boston Braves, then known as the "Miracle Braves" after going from last place on July 4 to a sweep in the 1914 World Series. Proponents of the name also acknowledged that the late-1890s club had sometimes been informally called the "Indians" during Sockalexis' short career there, a fact which merely reinforced the new name.
With the artificial connection to Native Americans, the Cleveland Indians are also often called "The Tribe". The source for the above information is the book Our Tribe, by Terry Pluto, 1999.
Copy & Paste ftw!
