Native American groups ask NFL to force Redskins name change

Football teams have changed their names over the years when they move:

Dallas Texans became the Kansas City Chiefs.

Cleveland Browns [original] became the Baltimore Ravens.

Houston Oilers became the Tennessee Titans.

The NFL also likes to RECYCLE Names from old teams.

Recycled names:

Cowboys, Giants, Browns, Titans, Panthers.

So, if the Redskins change their name, it will probably get a recycled name, like:

Tornadoes

Bulldogs

All-Americans

Tigers

Rangers

Reds

Wolverines

Just make them the “Reds”.

I have heard that before as well. Your average Native American doesn’t really give a rats ass about the name of the team as they don’t care about football or have no problem with it, it is just a Very vocal minority of race hustlers that always appear, similar to Jackson and Sharpton.

Washington IV Skins?
Someone had to type it! Weird G.

[Red Badger]

Yes, that has occurred to me. And it would be a recycled name, which the NFL likes to do................

So what happens when they rename “Washington” to “Barryton” in honor of Marion Barry?

The Barryton Bitches?

Giants and Cardinals are both in MLB and the NFL.

Yes, the Cardinals were originally the Chicago Cardinals, then moved to St. Louis then finally to Phoenix..........

I don’t give two shakes for the NFL any longer.
They can call themselves the Washington Pink Tassels for all I care.
Next they will demand the name be changed from Washington - if they haven’t already.

A few years ago, Dan Snyder had issued a copyright on the name Bravehearts. There was speculation that this would be their new team name (although it still uses the “Brave” Indian moniker.

Personally, I would call them the Foreskins in honor of Jewish Americans /s.

The Washington Taxers.......................

[ActresponsiblyinVA]

Are they doing everything they can to remove Native Americans from the culture of the United States?

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

The only race that really gets "red skin" are caucasians. Yes, the Naturals get sunburn, but it doesn't really appear as red as white.

[Red Badger]

Bravehearts?

Would the team uniform be kilts?..................
