Snyder will be “bought out” after extorting as much as possible from the league (some backroom deal involving large transfers of wealth). Then he’ll cave on the name.

If the league is going to pressure him to change the name, then he damn well ought to do that. The name is an extremely valuable international brand - imagine the reaction if Coca-Cola was forced to change its name due to an anti-drug campaign complaining about it's reference to cocaine. It's no different for the Redskins.

Its always been just a question of when the cave-in would occur. The Left strikes again, and again capitulation is the all but certain response. No one ever stands up to the Left after they orchestrate their well established campaign.

It starts as some local “outrage” then the lefty organizations start organizing around it. We then see the Left try to leverage shame and embarrassment associated with the mere mention of the name, or person, or organization in an effort to stigmatize and therefore marginalize. Then the issue gets instantly amplified by someone like Bob Costas and of course then the NYTimes fulminates and it's over, the Left now has an “official” cause which everyone must now bow down to.
