Instead of trying to get the ‘Skins to change the team name, the moron educrats should change their school name. It honors one of the 20th Century's most egregious Socialists, a leftist whose anti-constitional and collectivist ideology helped send this country on a path to ruin that has done more to harm American Indians and blacks than anything else. And remember, Wilson was a virulent racist; he invited D.W. Griffith to the White House to screen his “Birth of a Nation.”

While I prefer what... I've called them for better than 50 years... I guess we must be politically correct--

Perhaps the new name for DC's semi-pro teams should be... shouldn't it?

Washington Spuds? (Redskin potatoes?)

Great idea. Leave the name Redskins and use a potato as their mascot.

LOL!

Just from the headline I knew it had to be one of two schools, Woodrow Wilson or Duke Ellington HS for the Performing Arts, the last two DC public HS’s in practically lily white neighborhoods.

Duke Ellington practically abuts Georgetown University and Wilson just to north on the way to $$$$$ Chevy Chase and Bethesda.

Georgetown being top tier real estate, the Wilson area is second tier for upper level GS mandarins and media folk.

You can bet that not one of the other public HS’s is entertaing any such notions.

If the name Redskin was such a lightning rod where are the widespread protests from Native American tribes from coast to coast? This is a non-issue to them and further proof this is another PC exercise by our friendly neighborhood liberals, dare I say white liberals in another shameless attempt to win cheap political points with non-whites.

Put them all in uniforms. Dark pants, light colored Polo style shirt, for both girls and boys. Problem solved.

This will only increase sales of Redskins gear. If the kids can’t wear the stuff at school, now they will all the more want to wear it elsewhere.

The Packers got their name as one of their original sponsors was a meat packing company.

I am offended by the principals name. Peter is a biblical reference and he should be fired due to separation of church and state.

Yep, sometime around 2002-2003. Frisco is now the "Fighting Racoons".
