Washington Redskins hold press conference to reveal their name change
Unknown ^ | 9/29/14

Posted on 09/29/2014 6:09:46 PM PDT by yorkie

Today, the owner of the Washington Redskins, Dan Snyder, announced that the team has agreed unanimously to change their name, after receiving so much national controversy.

This, from Mr. Snyder: "Today, we made the decision to agree to change the name of our team. Instead of "Washington Redskins", we will now be legally known as "REDSKINS". (We removed the name 'Washington', as it was too embarassing.)"

You didn’t read the new satire rules. We have been getting confused about satire.

I wouldn’t say embarrassing, I would say that the term “Washington DC” offends patriotic Americans.

Satire. And I also understand that undocumented Americans are offended by the name Washington because the state was named after some whitey scum.

Didn't you hear about the new rules? We are supposed to have it explained to us up front that this is satire.

I don’t agree with PETA on much, but I think they got this right. The Redskins should thumb their nose to everyone just by changing their mascot to a potato. lol

How about The DC Thugs?

They fully support jacking up store clerks and punching cops.

Yes.

Pull the thread. “No Thanks” it.

I read this and believed it to be true and I got mad and upset at being fooled.

Grrrrr.

People who are confused about satire resent those who "get it."

They are boring and dumb.
