I sure hope this happens.
My preference would be the San Antonio Redskins.
” BFD”!
When are they going to crack down on the Minnesota Vikings?
Hang on for a minute! Does this mean that for all that time that Hanoi Jane was doing the tomahawk chop....
By the same logic, the Philadelphia Eagles should change their name because Eagles are federally protected.
They could just shorten it to “Washington Reds”.
That works, too.
With all the problems we have, and they spend their time on THIS???
Boston Celtics, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, are obvious ethnic slurs too, if we’re going down that road.
50 Sin atores trying desperately to change the subject from the feckless regime’s incompetence and Hairless Reid enabling of same.
That the Senate got involved in this is ridiculously over the top.
The Fighting Irish of Notre Dame? Crickets.
This is Saul Alinksy bull blank.
Never let a crisis go to waste. They are piggybacking on the Donald Sterling situation, to try to force a Redskins name change.
SQUIRREL!!!
“My preference would be the San Antonio Redskins. “
I prefer the San Antonio Bandits. There logo would be the Rodeo San Antonio hat.
Idiots. All 59 senators.
There was a Tampa Bay Bandits, in the USFL, the Old Head Ball Coach was their coach.
If we’re saying sports team names are offensive, there are so many we can discuss.
San Diego Padres-offensive to the Catholic Church.
Ditto New Orleans Saints, and Los Angeles Angels.
Seattle Mariners is offensive to real sailors.
Pittsburgh Steelers is offensive to real steel workers.
Green Bay Packers is offensive to real meat packers.
New York Yankees is offensive to southerners and the legacy of the Civil War.
New England Patriots violates political correctness, because we’re not supposed to celebrate patriotism, we’re supposed to celebrate diversity.
All of the animal nicknames are offensive to the animals, aren’t they?
Pittsburgh Pirates and Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Oakland Raiders celebrate criminal activity. Those names have got to go.
San Francisco Giants, New York Giants, are offensive to those with the giantism disorder.
Chicago White Sox is racist of course.
Where does this end, if we open this door?
Or Red like Van Jones
