The Washington Elites. The Washington Spenders. The Washington Disaster. The Washington Establishment. Gees, I’m sorry I tried to come up with a new name but Redskins is the only one that sounds good.
Why aren’t they going after Atlanta Braves, Cleveland Indians, Kansas City Chiefs, Chicago Black Hawks, etc. Why just Redskins???
And if we are going to be liberal and politically correct, there are so many other nicknames which are offensive.
Boston Celtics - offensive to the Celtic people.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish - offensive to the Irish.
Green Bay Packers - offensive to real meat packers.
Pittsburgh Steelers - offensive to real steel workers.
New York Yankees - offensive to southerners remembering the legacy of the civil war.
San Diego Padres, Los Angeles Angels, New Orleans Saints - all offensive to the Catholic church and Catholics.
Pittsburgh Pirates, Oakland Raiders, Tampa Bay Buccaneers - all are honoring the criminal element.
Dallas Cowboys - offensive to real cowboys.
Minnesota Vikings - in history, the real Vikings raped, pillaged and plundered and conquered.
If we are going down this road, we shouldn’t just stop at Indian nicknames.
