I do find it ironic that a liberals, PC city would support a team with that nickname.

I say rename ‘em “Journalist” which is more offensive.

The franchise continues to offend some Native Americans. We can’t help it if the team sucks!

Who wrote this crybaby crap? I am so sick of people being offended at everything. Are we this lazy and narcissistic that we have to bring lawsuits over sports teams names?

Hyperbolic whining alert!
Some people need to get a life.
Redskins, mostly; or injuns. Take your pick.

Thing is, if we called them “Warriors” or “Braves”, there are some folks who’d get their panties in a wad over that.
So WTF is the difference?
Call them the “Whiners”!

I just tossed of the following to Silver via Yahoo! Sports mail link:
Remind me again what is ‘unconscionable’ about having a sports franchise named for American Indians? (That’s what most of them like to be called, not the PC ‘Native Americans’.)
Human mascots without a local association like the Oklahoma Sooners, by and large honor martial virtue, often martial virtue in a losing cause: the USC Trojans, the Minnesota Vikings (I’ve not heard any Norwegians or Swedes militating about the ‘insult’ of that franchise’s name, and I being of 1/4 Norwegian descent with ancestors from the Vik find nothing offensive about it at all), various and sundry team named things like ‘Cavaliers’, ‘Knights’, ‘Crusaders’, and (my personal favorite) the Yeshiva University Maccabees, as well as all of the various American Indian themed team names sported by pro, college and high school teams, all honor the fact that some group of people exhibited courage against great odds, hardihood in battle, and nobility when their cause proved to be a losing one.
Only politically correct wusses who have no conception of martial virtue, or sneer at martial virtue—the sort of people who think that ‘military intelligence’ is an oxymoron (guffaw! guffaw!) are offended at American Indian themed team names. Why be one of them?
