Washington Redskin team owner Dan Snyder received a letter this week from 10 members of Congress demanding he change the name of his National Football League Team.

Rather than focusing on correcting the problems of this country, they busily go forth chasing butterflies and searching for problems to which to apply their new-age solutions.
Flush them down the sewer.
I am so glad that Congress has solved unemployment, the National Debt, Afghanistan, Iran, North Korea, illegal immigration the islamists trying to destroy America, the pathetic treatment of our wounded warriors and the common cold. Thus giving them time to screw around with this crap...
How about the Teutonics.
How about The Tribe because Germanic tribesmen and Celts along with others were tribes.
How about the Knights or what about The Legion or Huns? Centurions?
There are a lot of other ethnic groups besides the ones in contention.
How about White Skins to honor the Celtic tribesmen who overcame the Roman Legions?
I wonder where they pull this garbage out from? I personally know three full blooded Indians, and not a one of them thinks like this. Damn white liberals getting their nose in places they don’t belong. And goodall, or whatever his name is, needs to GO!
Because, you know, there’s nothing more important to the wellbeing of the nation at this moment than whether a football team changes its name...
Face.
Palm.
This is all just to get the deal done. Break lease in Md of current stadium, change name, move stadium, relocate FBI to Md. All done.
But don't forget the Goths, Visigoth, Vandals....etc that did sack Rome.
And they’re doing all this BS on our dime.
How about the Washington F*reskins?
Then all uncircumcised males can feel offended.
My American Indian friends don't think like that either. Oh, and they call themselves Indians except during formal meetings with Government officials when they become "Native Americans".

LMFAO!
Indians were always considered to be brave and strong.

Can just SHUT UP!
I recall Dennis Prager (a Jew) saying that rather than being offended he would be overjoyed to have an NFL team called the "Jews". He said hearing 80,000 people yelling "Go Jews" would be an absolute thrill!
wants to change their name to the
Los Angeles Redskins.
Which is the bigger travesty, living as a ward of the state in poverty conditions created by a government that lied to, cheated and stole from your ancestors or knowing there are sports teams with mascots that celebrate the high point of a tribe’s existence?
