One way to settle this and REALLY show the racist nitwits for who they are would simply be to rename the team.” The Washington N Words”

This is total bohonkus in my book.

I have a great idea...name them the Washington berdies.

Maybe I’ll cheer for them. But living in Texas...not likely.

Liberals have become so addicted to pointing their boney fingers and screeching "racist!" that they'll jump at any excuse to do it. That's all.

Obama sure brought back racism. I remember when it was just about dead...

What with the “F” word,
the “N” word, and the “C” word,
we’re well on our way
to spelling “France.”

So calling Indians Redskins is bad but calling Caucasians white is fine? I don’t understand this at all. It’s merely a descriptive term for your pigmentation. Who cares?

Good grief. The N-word is simply Spanish for black with a southern drawl. Enough, already, people.

“Change it to The Washington Nancy Boys and be done with it.”

Seriously, why don’t they propose to change the name to “The Washington Homosexuals”. Seems to me it ticks all the politically correct boxes.

Why not just change the name to stop all the petty arguing. In honor of all of the whiny leftists and dems that can’t let this go how about naming the team the Washington Nigglers. (Yes there is an ‘l’ in there to keep the name non offensive)

The statement itself negates the statement. If calling a team the Redskins is no different from calling it the N-word, one would not dare use the word Redskins. It would have to be called the R-word.

“If one person is offended, we have to listen,” but evidently that doesn’t apply to those who are offended by hollow liberal sanctimony. As long as the aim is to avoid offending liberals, there’s practically no end to it.

Oh, no no no, there is an end.

Let them have a little chat with me.

It doesn’t matter how irrational that is. The important thing is that someone is offended, so Goodell and others who subscribe to the one-offended-liberal rule have got to treat it like a serious matter. Before much longer, we’ll find ourselves watching a game between the Seattle Sustainability and the New Orleans Bicuriosity.

Irrational is the very heartbeat of the "progressive lib-burl."

It is "who they are and what they do."

There is and never will be a cure or a compromise.
