This whole thing shows the racism of the left. When a company selects an indian or a black women to be the symbol of their business, they are honoring them. Democrats can’t stand that.

I’m surprised it took this long for them to “cave” with the pressure they have encountered over the years.

How about the Mid-Atlantic Morons or is MAM racially offensive too?

I was living in the WDC area when Dan Snyder bought the Redskins - didn’t like him then, don’t like him now.

He immediately pissed everyone off - players, coaches, fans, announcers - and he is still doing it!

Can’t imagine the FRanchise surviving; can’t imagine the NFL surviving!

Will not bother me a bit when they declare bankruptcy and shutter the stadiums!

May we suggest alternatives? It is, after all, the team representing our nation's capital and citizens should have a voice.

How about:

The Washington Leeches
The Washington Whores
The Washington Any Skin Color But White
The Washington Federals (that one might catch)

Other suggestions?

The Cleveland Indians said Friday it will consider changing its name amid civil unrest over systemic racism and police brutality.

“We are committed to making a positive impact in our community and embrace our responsibility to advance social justice and equality,” the team said in a statement Friday. “Our organization fully recognizes our team name is among the most visible ways in which we connect with the community.

“We have had ongoing discussions organizationally on these issues. The recent social unrest in our community and our country has only underscored the need for us to keep improving as an organization on issues of social justice,” it added. “With that in mind, we are committed to engaging our community and appropriate stakeholders to determine the best path forward with regard to our team name.”
